For which values of p and q, will the following pair of linear equations have infinitely many

In order to have infinitely many solutions with linear equations/functions, the two equations have to be the same;
In accordance, we can say:
(2p + 7q)x = 4x [1]
(p + 8q)y = 5y [2]
2q - p + 1 = 2 [3]
All we have to do is choose two equations and solve them simultaneously (The simplest ones for what I'm doing and hence the ones I'm going to use are [3] and [2]):
Rearrange in terms of p:
p + 8q = 5 [2]
p = 5 - 8q [2]
p + 2 = 2q + 1 [3]
p = 2q - 1 [3]
Now equate rearranged [2] and [3] and solve for q:
5 - 8q = 2q - 1
10q = 6
q = 6/10 = 3/5 = 0.6

Now, substitute q-value into rearranges equations [2] or [3] to get p:
p = 2(3/5) - 1
p = 6/5 - 1
p = 1/5 = 0.2

Write the standard equation of a circle with center (-3, 4) (-3, 4) and radius 1.​
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The answer is (x+3)^2+(y-4)^2=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is (x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2

In this equation, a and b are the coordinates of a center, and r is radius

Substituting given values, we obtain our answer.

The digits 4 comma 5 comma 6 comma 7 comma and 8 are randomly arranged to form a​ three-digit number. ​ (Digits are not​ repeate
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

0.1 or 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

The digits 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 are randomly arranged to form a three digit number, where the digits are not repeated.

This is question of permutation.

Imagine this sum as; there are 3 boxes(blank spaces for digits) and 5 different fruits(digits) are to be put in these boxes, where a box can hold a maximum of only 1 fruit. The number of such permutations are: ⁵P₃

By formula (a! is factorial a):

ᵃPₙ = \frac{a!}{(a-n)!}

⁵P₃ = \frac{5!}{(5-3)!}

⁵P₃ = \frac{5!}{2!}

⁵P₃ = \frac{5*4*3*2*1}{2*1}

⁵P₃= 60

This is the total count of possible numbers that can be formed.

Now, for a number to be greater than 800 and even; first digit should necessarily be 8. Last digit can be 4 or 6. Using these conditions, there are 6 possibilities. 854, 864, 874, 846, 856, 876 are the numbers.

The probability that number is even and greater than 800 is:

P=\frac{ favorable outcomes}{equally likely possible outcomes}

P=\frac{6}{60}

P=\frac{1}{10}
