Answer:

Equation (c) 9x - 12y = 24  would cause a consistent-dependent system

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation 3x − 4y = 8

We have to find the equation from the given option that would cause a consistent-dependent system.

A given system of linear equation a_1x+b_1y+c=0 \ and\ a_2x+b_2y+c_2=0

If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent . When you graph the equations, both equations represent the same line that is slope of both the equation will be same.

that is possible when a_2 is multiple of a_1 and b_2 is multiple of b_1 and this multiplication factor is same for both.

Thus, for the given equation  3x − 4y = 8

Only equation (c) 9x - 12y = 24 is a multiple of equation  3x − 4y = 8 with same factor of multiplication 3

Also, the slope of two equation is same \frac{3}{4}

Thus, equation (c) 9x - 12y = 24  would cause a consistent-dependent system

If you would like to know which equation would cause a consistent-dependent system, you can find this using the following steps:

3x - 4y = 8     /*3
3 * 3x - 3 * 4y = 3 * 8
9x - 12y = 24

The correct result would be <span>9x - 12y = 24.</span>

I still don’t understand can someone give a helping hand?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A, B, C, and D, are all functions. the " { " is saying that those functions can are different at different points. For A the function is A= -x-2 when x< 2 and then A=x+4 when x\geq -2. At the point x=-2 you can see that the function on the graph is going in two different directions but it stops at x=-2.

Based on the graph you can see that the line on the left has a slope of -1 and if it kept going it would cross the y-axis at y=-2, therefore the equation for the first line is y =-x-2 when x

The second line on the right side has a slope of 1 and crosses the y-axis at y=4 so the equation for that line is y=x+4 when x\geq -2.

The only answer that matches these requirements is A

By what percent will a fraction decrease if its numerator is increased by 20% and its denominator is increased by 50%?
Brums [2.3K]
Lets find out...

our fraction is 1/2.....
when the numerator is increased by 20%......1 + 0.20(1) = 1.2
when the denominator is increased by 50%....2 + 0.50(2) = 3

1/2 = 0.5....original fraction
1.2 / 3 = 0.4.....increased fraction

 decrease = (original number - new number) / original number...* 100
                 = (0.5 - 0.4) / 0.5...* 100
                 = (0.1 / 0.5)....* 100
                = 0.2 * 100
                = 20% decrease <====

Find the missing side.<br> 6 is A^2 <br>10 is B^2<br> what is the missing side​
topjm [15]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle, which fits the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 +b^2 = c^2. The variables a, b, and c all are sides of the triangle, while a and b are the two legs and c is the hypothenuse.

In this problem, we see that 6 and x are the legs and 10 is the hypothenuse.    We put 6 as "a" and x as "b" (but it doesn't matter which is a and b) and 10 is c. Therefore, we have the equation:

6^2 + x^2 = 10^2

which further simplifies to:

36 + x^2 = 100

x^2 = 64

and so x would equal 8 (or -8, but it is impossible to have a side length of -8).

Therefore, the missing side is 8.
