Answer:
b. The system is not in echelon form because the system is not organized in descending "stair step" pattern so that the index of the leading variables increases from the top to bottom.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given linear system has a equation which is not in echelon form. The echelon is a system which divides the data into rigid hierarchal groups. The given linear equation in not in echelon form as the leading variables are increased from top to bottom indicating descending stair step pattern.
Answer:
The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
Mary has 15 coins with the total value of $1.75 if the coins are nickels and quarters how many of each kind are there
Let
x ----> the number of nickel coins
y ----> the number of quarter coins
Remember that
we know that
Mary has 15 coins
so
-----> equation A
The total value of the coins is $1.75
so
----> equation B
Solve the system by graphing
Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solution is the point (10,5)
therefore
The number of nickel coins is 10 and the number of quarter coins is 5
Answer:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets check...
42/56 = 56/64
cross multiply
(56)(56) = (42)(64)
3136 = 2688...(incorrect)...these are not proportional
proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
42/56 = 3/4
56/64 = 7/8
as u can see, they are not equivalent fractions...so they are not proportional
Slope = (-2 - 10)/(12 + 6) = -12/18 = -2/3
y = mx + b
10 = -2/3(-6) + b
10 = 4 + b
b =6
equation
y = -2/3x + 6
<span>x-intercept when y = 0
</span>-2/3x + 6 = 0
-2/3x = -6
x = 6 (3/2)
x = 9
answer is <span>d.9</span>
