Answer:

yes it is true that a linear system of three equations with two variables is inconsistent because when we solve the equations variables can be obtained by only first two equations which are considered first. and third equation is useless.

First picture)
I: 5x+2y=-4
II: -3x+2y=12

add I+(-1*II):
5x+2y-(-3x+2y)=-4-12
8x=-16
x=-2

insert x=-2 into I:
5*(-2)+2y=-4
-10+2y=-4
2y=6
y=3

(-2,3)

question 6)
I: totalcost=115=3*childs+5*adults
II: 33=adults+childs
33-adults=childs

insert childs into I:
115=3*(33-adults)+5*adults
115=99-3*adults+5*adults
16=2*adults
8=adults

insert adults into II:
33-8=childs
25=childs

so it's the last option

question 7)
a) y<6 and y>2 can also be written as 2<y<6, so solution 3 exist for example
b) y>6 and y>2 can also be written as 2<6<y, so solution 7 exist for example
c) y<6 and y<2 inverse of b: y<2<6, so for example 1
d) y>6 and y<2: y<2<6<y, this is impossible as y can be only either bigger or smaller than 2 or 6

so it's the last option

question 8)
I: x+y=12
II: x-y=6

subtract: I-II:
x+y-(x-y)=12-6
2y=6
y=3

insert y into I:
x+3=12
x=9

(9,3)

question 9)
I: x+y=6
II: x=y+5

if you take the x=y+5 definition of II and substitute it into I:
(y+5)+y=6

which is the second option :)

Suppose the line of best fit is being found for some data points that have an r-value of 0.657. If the standard deviation of the
oksian1 [2.3K]
We are given a line with the following data:

r-value = 0.657 (r)
standard deviation of x-coordinates = 2.445 (Sx)
standard deviation of y-coordinates = 9.902 (Sy)

We are asked to find the slope of the line up to 3 decimal places.

To find the slope of the line, based on the data that we have, we can use this formula:

slope, b = r * (Sy / Sx) 

substitute the values to the formula:

b = 0.657 * ( 9.902 / 2.445 )

Solve for the b.

Therefore, the slope of the line is 

b = 2.66078, round off to three decimal places:

b = 2.661 is the slope of the line.

The equation of a parabola is given.y=1/8x^2+4x+20 What are the coordinates of the focus of the parabola?
Lena [83]
He equation of a parabola is x = -4(y-1)^2. What is the equation of the directrix? 
<span>You may write the equation as </span>
<span>(y-1)^2 = (1) (x+4) </span>
<span>(y-k)^2 = 4p(x-h), where (h,k) is the vertex </span>
<span>4p=1 </span>
<span>p=1/4 </span>
<span>k=1 </span>
<span>h=-4 </span>

<span>The directrix is a vertical line x= h-p </span>
<span>x = -4-1/4 </span>
<span>x=-17/4 </span>

<span>------------------------------- </span>
<span>What is the focal length of the parabola with equation y - 4 = 1/8x^2 </span>
<span>(x-0)^2 = 8(y-4) </span>
<span>The vertex is (0,4) </span>
<span>4p=8 </span>
<span>p=2 (focal length) -- distance between vertex and the focus </span>
<span>------------------------------- </span>
<span>(y-0)^2 = (4/3) (x-7) </span>
<span>vertex = (7,0) </span>
<span>4p=4/3 </span>
<span>p=1/3 </span>
<span>focus : (h+p,k) </span>
