The equation 6x + 8 = 6(x + 2) has no solution

The equation 10x = 15 + 5x has one solution

The equation x + 11 = 8x + 11 - 7x has infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

The types of the solutions of an equation of one variable

If the variable has one value, then the equation has one solution
If the variable disappears from the equation and the left hand side is equal to the right hand side, then the equation has infinitely many solutions
If the variable disappears from the equation and the left hand side is not equal the right hand side, then the equation has no solutions

∵ 6x + 8 = 6(x + 2)

- Simplify the right hand side

∴ 6x + 8 = 6x + 12

- Subtract 6 from both sides

∴ 8 = 12 ⇒ it can not be

- x disappears and the left hand side not equal the right and side,

then use the 3rd case above

∵ L.H.S ≠ R.H.S

∴ The equation has no solution

∵ 10x = 15 + 5x

- Subtract 5x from both sides

∴ 5x = 15

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 3

- The variable x has one solution, then use the 1st case above

∴ The equation has one solution

∵ x + 11 = 8x + 11 - 7x

- Add the like terms in the right hand side

∴ x + 11 = x + 11

- Subtract x from both sides

∴ 11 = 11

- x disappears and the left hand side is equal to the right and side,

then use the 2nd case above

∵ L.H.S = R.H.S

∴ The equation has infinitely many solutions

HELPPPP y=1/8x+3 in standard form

lidiya [134]

Answer:

$x-8y=-24$

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of a linear equation: $Ax+By=C$

(where A, B and C are integers, and A shouldn't be negative)

Given equation:

$y=\dfrac{1}{8}x+3$

Multiply both sides by 8:

$\implies 8 \cdot y=8 \cdot \dfrac{1}{8}x+8 \cdot 3$

$\implies 8y=x+24$

Subtract 8y from both sides:

$\implies 8y-8y=x+24-8y$

$\implies 0=x+24-8y$

Subtract 24 from both sides:

$\implies 0-24=x+24-8y-24$

$\implies -24=x-8y$

In standard form:

$\implies x-8y=-24$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, we take Gordon's result, 3, and subtract 2, which is what he added to get 3. This gives us a result of 1. We then multiply by 2, as 1 was the quotient of dividing the original number by 2. This leaves us with an answer of 2.

Line segment AB was translated 2 units right and 7 units down to create line segment CD. A transversal intersects the two line s

belka [17]

These are correct statements:

- Line segments AB and CD are parallel.

- Since ∠1 and ∠3 are corresponding angles, they are congruent.
These are incorrect statements:

- Since ∠3 and ∠4 are corresponding angles, they are congruent. They are not corresponding angles, they are supplementary meaning they, together, equal 180.

- Since ∠1 and ∠2 are corresponding angles, they are congruent. These are also not corresponding, they are supplementary.

- Line segments AB and CD are perpendicular. They are not crossing over each other.

- Since ∠1 and ∠4 are alternate interior angles, they are congruent. They are not corresponding, they are supplementary. ∠1 and ∠3 are corresponding just like ∠2 and ∠4.

The area of a rectangle is 45 cm2. Two squares are constructed such that two adjacent sides of the rectangle are each also the s

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The lengths of sides of squares are 5 cm and 9 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of rectangle be x and y .

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

Given : Area of rectangle = 45 cm².

⇒ x × y = 45

⇒ $x=\frac{45}{y}$ ........(1)
