3x - 6y = 20
-6y = -3x + 20
y = 1/2x - 20/6.....slope = 1/2...y int = -20/6 = -10/3

2x - 4y = 3
-4y = -2x + 3
y = 1/2x - 3/4..slope = 1/2...y int = -3/4

same slope, different y int = parallel lines = no solution = inconsistent

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

3x-6y=20

2x-4y=3

If a system of equations has no solution, then the system of equations is inconsistent.

If a system of equations has solutions, then the system of equations is consistent.

(a) If the system has one solution, then it is independent.

(b) If the system has infinitely many solutions, then it is dependent.

If two lines are ax_1+by_1+c_2=0\text{ and }ax_2+by_2+c_2=0 and

\frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{b_1}{b_2}\neq \frac{c_1}{c_2}

then the system of equations is inconsistent.

\frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{3}{2}

\frac{b_1}{b_2}=\frac{-6}{-4}=\frac{3}{2}

\frac{c_1}{c_2}=\frac{-20}{-3}=\frac{20}{3}

Since \frac{a_1}{a_2}=\frac{b_1}{b_2}\neq \frac{c_1}{c_2}, therefore the given system of equation is inconsistent.

Hence, the correct option is D.

In the equation, y = 0.007x, how many inches of rain falls in 6 minutes?<br>​
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

X represents the value you can multiply with the slope to get the answer.

y = 0.007x

  = 0.007(6)

  = 0.042

Therefore, 0.042 inches of rain falls in 6 minutes.

The equation P = 16,250 + 75n can be used to determine the population, P, of a city after n years. Which statements are true? Se
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

15000+1250x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the initial population is 15,000, we want to know how many people are going to Jonesville each year.  Assuming that in 2001 and in 2002, each year adds 1,250 people and that it is constant.  The equation is 15000+1250x in which 15,000 represents the initial number and 1250 is the amount of people added each year followed by x which is the number in years.
