Any line can be expressed in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is y intercept.
Two lines can either be parallel ,overlap or meet at one point .Let us look at different cases :
1)When two lines are parallel they do not intersect at any point and hence the system of equations have no solution.
2) When two lines overlap each other then the two lines touch each other at infinite number of points and we say the system of equations have infinite solutions.
3) When two lines intersect each other at one point we say the system of equation has one solution.
Part A:
The given lines are intersecting at one point so we have one solution.
Part B:
The point of intersection is the solution to the system of equations .In the graph the point of intersection of the lines is (4,4)
Solution is (4,4)
Hello!
You can make two expressions based on what you know
let x equal the larger number
let y equal the smaller number
x + y = 95
x + 2y = 120
We can use elimination to get rid of x
You can subtract the two equation to get rid of x
-y = -25
Since y is negative we can multiply both sides by -1 to make y positive
y = 25
Now we can put this into one of the other equations to find x
x + 25 = 95
subtract 95 from both sides
x = 70
The answers are 70 and 25
Hope this helps!
Answer:
y = 7
NO = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side of the parallelogram LM and NO given be 2y - 9 and y - 2
Since LMNO is a parallelogram, hence;
LM = NO
2y - 9 = y - 2
2y - y = -2 + 9
y = 7
Since NO = y - 2
NO = 7 - 2
NO = 5
