Explain why you cannot find the prime factor derivation of 4.8

"Prime Factorization" is finding which prime numbers multiply together to make the original number.

Because prime numbers are all whole numbers (no decimals), there is no way to get a product of prime numbers that is a decimal like 4.8.

In other words, because 4.8 is not a positive whole number, you can't find its prime factorization.

How many solutions does the following system have? <br><br> 2x+3y=1; -3x-2y=-1
zysi [14]

Answer:

x = 1/5 , y = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{2 x + 3 y = 1 | (equation 1)

-3 x - 2 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{-(3 x) - 2 y = -1 | (equation 1)

2 x + 3 y = 1 | (equation 2)

Add 2/3 × (equation 1) to equation 2:

{-(3 x) - 2 y = -1 | (equation 1)

0 x+(5 y)/3 = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 1 by -1:

{3 x + 2 y = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+(5 y)/3 = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 3:

{3 x + 2 y = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y = 1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{3 x + 2 y = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 1/5 | (equation 2)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{3 x+0 y = 3/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 1/5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:

{x+0 y = 1/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 1/5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 1/5 , y = 1/5
