Hiya there! :D The answer to your question is 4/10= 12/20. That is NOT A PROPORTION. Anyways I just did for the first one 1*3=3 and 4*3= 12 which is 3/12. Next 4/10= 12/20. Nope you can't do that. 4/10= 0.40 and 12/20= 0.60 those are not the same.2/4= 3/6 those both equal 1/2. You can simplify them and make them 1/2 and they are the same! They both equal to 1/2 and 0.50. Last but not least 8/6= 20/15. 8/6= 1.333333 and 20/15= 1.3333333. So yeah that's how I got my answers! ;D

Hope I helped! Have a nice day! ;) :D :)

Which of these statements is correct?

Answer:

The system of linear equations 8x - 3y = 10 and 16x - 6y = 22 has no solution is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The system of linear equations 6x - 5y = 8 and 12x - 10y = 16 has no solution.

Solve these linear equations simultaneously

Step 1 : Find y in terms of x from any one equation

6x - 5y = 8

y = 8 - 6x

-5

Step 2 : Substitute y in terms of x from step 1 in the second equation.

16x - 6y = 22

16x - 6 (8 - 6x) = 22

-5

80x - 48 + 36x = 22 x -5

94x = 43

x = 0.457

This statement is incorrect as it does have a solution.

2) The system of linear equations 7x + 2y = 6 and 14x + 4y = 16 has an infinite number of solutions.

Solve these linear equations simultaneously

Step 1 : Find y in terms of x from any one equation

7x + 2y = 6

y = 6 - 7x

Step 2 : Substitute y in terms of x from step 1 in the second equation.

14x + 4y = 16

14x + 4(6 - 7x) = 16

14x + 12 - 14x = 16

0 ≠ 4

This statement is not true as there are no solutions.

3) The system of linear equations 8x - 3y = 10 and 16x - 6y = 22 has no solution.

Solve these linear equations simultaneously

Step 1 : Find x in terms of y from any one equation

8x - 3y = 10

x = 10 + 3y

Step 2 : Substitute x in terms of y from step 1 in the second equation.

16x - 6y = 22

16(10 + 3y) - 6y = 22

20 + 6y - 6y = 2

0 ≠ -18

This statement is true because there are no solutions

4) The system of linear equations 9x + 6y = 14 and 18x + 12y = 26 has an infinite number of solutions.

Solve these linear equations simultaneously

Step 1 : Find x in terms of y from any one equation

9x + 6y = 14

x = 14 - 6y

Step 2 : Substitute x in terms of y from step 1 in the second equation.

18x + 12y = 26

18 (14 - 6y) + 12y = 26

8 - 12y + 12y = 26

0 ≠ 18

This statement is incorrect because there are no solutions. It does not have infinite number of solutions.
