Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear system of equations will have a unique solution if and only if the number of variables equal the number of independent equations.

By independent equations we mean the same equation not repeated by multiplying by any constant.

Suppose number of variables are n, we must have the determinant formed by the coefficients non zero to have a unique solutions.

Here the no of equations are less than the number of variables.  So we cannot have a unique solution but can have a parametric solution using the number of parameters as n-m where n = number of variables and m = the number of independent equations given.

So the given statement is true.

What’s the slope of -2,-3 and -4,-9
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the line connecting (-2,-3) and (-4,-9).  (Note:  you must use those parentheses.)

As we go from x= -4 to x = -2, an increase of 2, y increases by 6 from -9 to -3.  The slope of this line is m = rise / run = 6/2 = 3.

(1+cos2x)/(1-cos2x) = cot^2x
sesenic [268]

We will turn the left side into the right side.

\dfrac{1 + \cos 2x}{1 - \cos2x} = \cot^2 x

Use the identity:

\cos 2x = \cos^2 x - \sin^2 x

\dfrac{1 + \cos^2 x - \sin^2 x}{1 - ( \cos^2 x - \sin^2 x)} = \cot^2 x

\dfrac{1 - \sin^2 x + \cos^2 x }{1 - \cos^2 x + \sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x

Now use the identity

\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1 solved for sin^2 x and for cos^2 x.

\dfrac{\cos^2 x + \cos^2 x }{\sin^2 x + \sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x

\dfrac{2\cos^2 x}{2\sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x

\dfrac{\cos^2 x}{\sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x

\cot^2 x = \cot^2 x
