2 * AB = AC
2 * 8v = 2v + 42
16v - 2v = 42
14v = 42
v = 42/14
v = 3
BC = AB = 8v = 8*3 = 24
<u>the correct question is</u>
The denarius was a unit of currency in ancient rome. Suppose it costs the roman government 10 denarii per day to support 4 legionaries and 4 archers. It only costs 5 denarii per day to support 2 legionaries and 2 archers. Use a system of linear equations in two variables. Can we solve for a unique cost for each soldier?
Let
x-------> the cost to support a legionary per day
y-------> the cost to support an archer per day
we know that
4x+4y=10 ---------> equation 1
2x+2y=5 ---------> equation 2
If you multiply equation 1 by 2
2*(2x+2y)=2*5-----------> 4x+4y=10
so
equation 1 and equation 2 are the same
The system has infinite solutions-------> Is a consistent dependent system
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
We cannot solve for a unique cost for each soldier, because there are infinite solutions.
Answer:
y-3= 2(x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The equation of a line in point slope form is y-y1= m(x-x1)
2. m=slope and (x1,y1) is the point the line passes through
3. The point the line passes through is (1,3)
4, The slope is 2
5. Therefore the answer is y-3=2(x-1)
Multiply 400 times 0.70 and that’s how you get the % (in this case 280)
