Answer:

The correct answer is NO.

Step-by-step explanation:

John is graphing two lines with equations say ax + by + c = 0 and dx + ey +f =0 on his graphing calculator.

For John to get a unique solution the coefficients should follow the following condition \frac{a}{d} \neq \frac{b}{e}. So when he plots the lines he get an intersecting pair of lines.

For John to get no solution the coefficients should follow the following condition \frac{a}{d} = \frac{b}{e} \neq  \frac{c}{f}. When we plot in this case we get two parallel lines.

For John to get an infinite many solution the coefficients should follow the following condition \frac{a}{d} = \frac{b}{e} = \frac{c}{f}. And when we plot the lines in this case we get one line superimposed on the other.

Since after graphing, John sees only one line, the lines must have superimposed on one another giving John an infinite number of solutions.

<span>200 < 225 + 80x < 550

The 200 is the amount the Jenna currently have. 
225 + 80x is the amount that Jenna has to pay given x number of hours.
550 is the sum of Jenna's 200 and additional 350 she can get by selling pre-ordered Cds. This is the maximum amount she can pay for the studio rental and sound technicians.

225 + 80x < 550
80x < 550 -225
80x < 325
80x / 80 < 325/80
x < 4.06 or 4 hours

225 + 80x </span>→ 225 + 80(4) = 225 + 320 = 545
<span>
The number of hours for the sound technician will range from 1 hour to 4 hours. 

Assuming they will use 6 hours.

225 + 80(6) = 225 + 480 = 705
705 - 550 = 155

Jenna has to raise an additional $155 to pay off the studio rent and 6 hours of sound technicians.

Choose whether it's always, sometimes, never 
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: An integer added to an integer is an integer, this statement is always true. A polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true. A polynomial divided by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is sometimes true. A polynomial multiplied by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

Explanation:

1)

The closure property of integer states that the addition, subtraction and multiplication is integers is always an integer.

If a\in Z\text{ and }b\in Z, then a+b\in Z.

Therefore, an integer added to an integer is an integer, this statement is always true.

2)

A polynomial is in the form of,

p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{x-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

Where a_n,a_{n-1},...,a_1,a_0 are constant coefficient.

When we subtract the two polynomial then the resultant is also a polynomial form.

Therefore, a polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

3)

If a polynomial divided by a polynomial  then it may or may not be a polynomial.

If the degree of numerator polynomial is higher than the degree of denominator polynomial then it may be a polynomial.

For example:

f(x)=x^2-2x+5x-10 \text{ and } g(x)=x-2

Then \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=x^2+5, which a polynomial.

If the degree of numerator polynomial is less than the degree of denominator polynomial then it is a rational function.

For example:

f(x)=x^2-2x+5x-10 \text{ and } g(x)=x-2

Then \frac{g(x)}{f(x)}=\frac{1}{x^2+5}, which a not a polynomial.

Therefore, a polynomial divided by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is sometimes true.

4)

As we know a polynomial is in the form of,

p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{x-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

Where a_n,a_{n-1},...,a_1,a_0 are constant coefficient.

When we multiply the two polynomial, the degree of the resultand function is addition of degree of both polyminals and the resultant is also a polynomial form.

Therefore, a polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

mestny [16]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three reasons here why randomization is not being applied.

First, the coach is only observing football players attending the meeting.  This is not representative of the entire team.

Second, there is no selection process.  The coach isn't using a random generator or using a similar method.

Third, the players are volunteering for the test.  The results will be biased because of this.
