Answer: Choice C) When you solve for the variable, you will end up with a false statement, like 0 = 2, for an equation with no solution. You will end up with a true statement, like 2 = 2 for an equation with infinitely many solutions.
For example, let's say we had the equation x = x+2. Subtracting x from both sides leads to 0 = 2 which is a false statement. No matter what we replace x with, the equation x = x+2 is always false. That's why we don't have any solutions here.
For an equation like x + 2 = x + 2, subtracting x from both sides leads to 2 = 2 which is always true. A true equation is one where the same number is on both sides. No matter what we replace x with, the equation will be true. Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve 2x^2 = -X^2 - 5x - 1. Consolidate all terms on the left side and write 0 on the right side:
3x^2 + 5x + 1 = 0. This is a quadratic equation. Let's solve it for x using the quadratic formula:
a = 3, b = 5, c = 1, and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac = 5^2 - 4(3)(1) = 13. Because the discriminant is positive, we know that there are two distinct, real roots; the graphs of y = 2x^2 and y = x^2 - 5x - 1 intersect in two places whose x-coordinates are the real roots mentioned above.
Answer A is not correct as stated, but would be correct if we were to replace "the y-coordinates" with "the x-coordinates."
Answer C would be correct if and only if we write y = x^2 - 5x - 1.
First,you do,2/5+2/3,but since you will need a common denominator,you will find the least common denominator for 5 and 3.The LCD(Least Common Denominator) will be 15 since both 5 and 3 could go in 15.Now,the equation looks like this: 2/15+2/15 since whatever you do to the bottom numbers,you NEED to do to the top numbers:2 and 2.Now you will need to do,2x3,since 5x3=15 and the answer to 2x3=6 then you do 2x5,since 3x5=15 the answer is 10 now the equation looks like this:6/15+10/15 now you add them together,and the answer will be 16/15 and if you want the answer to be a mixed number,it would look like this: 1 1/15. Hope this helps!
