A system is inconsistent when there are no solutions between the two equations. Graphically, the lines will be parallel (they never meet!) and the slopes will be the same. But the y-intercepts will be different.

Let's look at the four equations, with each solved as needed, into y = mx + b form.

A: 2x + y = 5

y = 5 - 2x

y = -2x + 5

Compared to y = 2x + 5, the slopes are different, so this system won't be inconsistent. Not a good choice.

B: y = 2x + 5

Compared to y = 2x + 5, the slopes are the same and the y intercepts are the same. This system has infinitely many solutions. Not a good choice.

C: 2x - 4y = 10

-4y = 10 - 2x

-4y = -2x + 10

y = 2/4x -10/4

Here the slopes are different, so, like A this is not a good choice.

D: 2y - 4x = -10

2y = =10 + 4x

2y = 4x - 10

y = 2x - 5

Compared to y = 2x + 5 we have the same slopes and different y intercepts.  The lines will be parallel and the system is inconsistent.


Thus, D is the best choice.

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. What fractional part of a house can 4 people frame a house in
Alina [70]

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. That means it will take one person 10\times6=60 days to finish the house.

Which means that it will take 4 people \frac{60}{4}=15 days to finish the house.

So, the fractional part of the house 4 people can frame in 3 days will be \frac{3}{15}=\frac{1}{5}

Thus, Option D is the correct answer.

5x-3=19? Answer for Brainliest
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

x = 4.4

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume you want to solve for x so here we go.

You need to work backwards for this equation, and whatever you do to the LHS, you do to the RHS.

First, you need to remove the minus 3, which means that on both sides, you add 3. Adding three on the LHS makes the -3 disappear, and adding 3 on the RHS makes the 19 go to a 22.

Your equation is now 5x=22.

Since 5x means 5 × x, to get rid of it, you need to divide 5x by 5. Doing it to the LHS will make the five disappear, and doing it to the RHS will make it go to 22 ÷ 5 which equals 4.4

Therefore, x = 4.4

4 less than the number product of a number and 8 is 44 .what it the number
Anettt [7]

Set up the problem like this: x - 4 + 8 = 44

x-4+8=44             (8-4)

x+4=44

  -4   -4                (subtract 4 from both sides)

x=40

Answer: the number is 40.
