Answer:

a=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x – 2y = 4

ax– 6y = 12

To have infinitely many solutions, the two equations have to be equal

Multiply the first equation by 3

3x -6y = 12

ax -6y = 12

a = 3

What are three ways to get 256 using exponents
Nastasia [14]

recall from the previous posting, 2⁸ = 256, so that's one way to represent it.

now, another way hmmm


\bf 2^8\implies 2^{2\cdot 4}\implies (2^2)^4\implies (4)^4\implies 4^4&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{\textit{yet another way}}{2^8\implies 2^{4\cdot 2}}\implies (2^4)^2\implies (16)^2\implies 16^2

Choose the correct graph of the given system of equations. y + 2x = −1 3y − x = 4 graph of two lines that intersect at the point
ELEN [110]

The system of equations has one solution (-1, 1)

<h3>Graph of system of linear equations </h3>

From the question, we are to graph the given system of equations.

The given system of equation is

y + 2x = −1

3y − x = 4

The graph of the given system of equations is shown below.

From the graph, we can observe that the solution to the given system of equation is given by two lines that intersect at the point (-1, 1).

Hence, the system of equations has one solution (-1, 1)

Consider the function,
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

If x= 4 then f(x) = 4x -5 is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 4x -5

We need to find the domain value that corresponds to the output f(x) = 11

In this question, we need to solve the expression for value of x such that the answer is 11.

if  x= 3

f(3) = 4(3) -5

     = 12 -5

    = 7

Since we want the answer 11 so we cannot take x= 3

if x = 4

f(4) = 4(4)-5

    = 16 - 5

    = 11

So, if x= 4 then f(x) = 4x -5 is 11.
