Answer:

NO SOLUTION

Step-by-step explanation:

Two equations of the system of linear equations has been given as x - 3y = -2 and x - 3y = 16

if we see in these equations slopes are same for both.

x - 3y = -2

+3y = +2 +x

y = \frac{1}{3}x + \frac{2}{3}

slope m₁ = \frac{1}{3}

x - 3y = 16

-3y = 16-x

3y = x - 16

y = \frac{1}{3}x - \frac{16}{3}

slope m₂ = \frac{1}{3}

so m₁ = m₂ = \frac{1}{3}

These lines are parallel to each other.

Since parallel lines don't intersect each other so there is NO SOLUTION for this system of equation.

A train is pulling 23 red cars and 36 blue cars. Each car has 32 boxes of freight. Which is the best estimate for the number of
Len [333]

So the train is pulling about 50 cars in total, and there's about 30 boxes of freight in each car.


30 x 50 = 1500


The best estimate would be near 1500 boxes of freight through the whole train.

o-na [289]
The answer would be A. When using Cramer's Rule to solve a system of equations, if the determinant of the coefficient matrix equals zero and neither numerator determinant is zero, then the system has infinite solutions. It would be hard finding this answer when we use the Cramer's Rule so instead we use the Gauss Elimination. Considering the equations:

x + y = 3 and <span>2x + 2y = 6
Determinant of the equations are </span>
<span>| 1 1 | </span>
<span>| 2 2 | = 0
</span>
the numerator determinants would be
<span>| 3 1 | . .| 1 3 | </span>
<span>| 6 2 | = | 2 6 | = 0.
Executing Gauss Elimination, any two numbers, whose sum is 3, would satisfy the given system. F</span>or instance (3, 0), <span>(2, 1) and (4, -1). Therefore, it would have infinitely many solutions. </span>
