How are slopes and y intercepts to the number of solutions of a system of the liner

1 answer:

7 0

We assume a linear system with 2 variables.

If the slopes are the same, and y-intercepts are different, there are 0 solutions.

If the slopes are different, there is 1 solution.

If the slopes are the same, and the y-intercepts are the same, there are ∞ solutions.

. Use the quadratic formula to solve each quadratic real equation. Round

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

A. No real solution

B. 5 and -1.5

C. 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is:

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ - b \pm \sqrt {b^2 - 4ac} }}{{2a}}} \end{array}$ , with a being the x² term, b being the x term, and c being the constant.

Let's solve for a.

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {5^2 - 4\cdot1\cdot11} }}{{2\cdot1}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {25 - 44} }}{{2}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 5 \pm \sqrt {-19} }}{{2}}} \end{array}$

We can't take the square root of a negative number, so A has no real solution.

Let's do B now.

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {7^2 - 4\cdot-2\cdot15} }}{{2\cdot-2}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {49 + 120} }}{{-4}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm \sqrt {169} }}{{-4}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 7 \pm 13 }}{{-4}}} \end{array}$

$\frac{7+13}{4} = 5\\\frac{7-13}{4}=-1.5$

So B has two solutions of 5 and -1.5.

Now to C!

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ -(-44) \pm \sqrt {-44^2 - 4\cdot4\cdot121} }}{{2\cdot4}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 44 \pm \sqrt {1936 - 1936} }}{{8}}} \end{array}$

$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\frac{{ 44 \pm 0}}{{8}}} \end{array}$

$\frac{44}{8} = 5.5$

So c has one solution: 5.5

Hope this helped (and I'm sorry I'm late!)

The color distribution of Skittles is the following: 10% blue, orange, and green each, 23.3333% yellow, red, and purple each. In

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Percentage of blue, orange and green = 10%

Percentage of yellow, red and purple = 23.3333%

Number of skittles in bag by color :

Red = 137

Orange = 39

Yellow = 130

Green = 39

Blue = 43

Purple = 112

According to the color distribution :

Number of blue, orange and green should be the same and also number of yellow, red and purple skittles must be the same.

Total number of skittles :

(137 + 39 + 130 + 39 + 43 + 112) = 500

10% of the total = 0.1 * 500 = 50

Hence,

We should have 50 blue, orange and green skittles

23.33333% of total = 116.666 (about 117 skittles of yellow, red and purple color)

What is the measure of IL?

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

L-6 test results measure the amount of IL-6 circulating in the blood, and are used as one sign of systemic inflammation. A normal level of IL-6 may represent people who do not have an infection or inflammation. A low level of IL-6 may be expected for most patients with a less severe inflammatory response.
