Substitution method 4a=4-b 4a=5-b How to do this

A "solution" to this pair of equations is a pair of numbers, for 'a' and 'b',
that make the equations true statements.

I can tell you right now that this system of equations has no solution.
Here, let me show you why:

<span>           4a = 4 - b
           4a = 5 - b

Subtract the bottom equation from the top one:

             0 = -1

Can you think of any numbers for 'a' and 'b' that could
make  0  equal to  -1 ?

I can't either.

There are no numbers for 'a' and 'b' that can make both equations true
statements.  That's just another way to say that the system of equations
has no solution.</span>

Answer:

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

Here is a specific example:

5x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

In other words:

You have zero on the right.

On the left, you have the powers of “x” in descending order.

#9 You have to make the fraction a decimal, then multiply 11.8 by 6.5. This is because 11.8 is per hour.

#10 here is a hint, one quarter of an hour is 15 minutes. again change the fraction to a decimal

#11 just multiply the 2 numbers

Kyoko is reading a book by her favorite author. She read the first 20 pages in One-half of an hour. Reading at the same pace, Ky
eduard

Answer:

It will take her 3 hours to read 120 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of pages read(y) after x hour can be modeled by a linear function in the following format:

y = ax + b

In which a is the number of pages read per hour and b is the initial number of pages read.

A straight line goes through (0, 0)

This means that when x = 0, y = 0

So

y = ax + b

0 = a*0 + b

b = 0

(0.5, 20)

When x = 0.5, y = 20

So

y = ax

20 = 0.5a

a = \frac{20}{0.5}

a = 40

The function in:

y(x) = 40x

According to the graph, which statement must be true?

It will take her 2 hours to read 60 pages.

y(2) = 40*2 = 80

Less than 2 hours for 60 pages, so this is false.

It will take her 3 hours to read 120 pages.

y(3) = 40*3 = 120

This statement is true.

It will take her 4 hours to read 180 pages.

y(4) = 40*4 = 160

More than 4 hours to read 180 pages. So false.

It will take her 5 hours to read 210 pages.

y(5) = 40*5 = 200

More than 5 hours to read 210 pages. So false.
