Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

Solve for y from both equations:

5y=-3x+9\\y=\frac{-3}{5}x+\frac{9}{5}

5y=-3x+15\\y=\frac{-3}{5}x+3

As you can see, the slopes of the lines are equal, therefore, they are parallel.

If the lines are parallel then the system of equtions has no solution.

Answer:

Choice D  is correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given a system of equations.

3x + 5y = 9                             eq(1)

3x + 5y = 15                          eq(2)

We have to find the description of the solution of equations.

y = mx+c is the slope-intercept of equation of line where m is slope and c is y-intercept.

Eq(1) can be written as:

y = -3/5x + 3 where slope is -3/5.

Eq(2) can be written as:

y = -3/5x+5 where slope is -3/5.

Equations with equal slopes are of parallel lines and parallel lines have no solution.Hence, system has no solutions.

Choice D  is correct answer.

Fiona is gathering signatures on a petition to save the Orangutans. If she gets 4 times the number of signatures that she has ri
Reika [66]

Answer: 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation

The total signatures she needs is 4 times as many as she has. From this we can create the equation (4n = total signatures)

We know that the total number of signatures is 8000, so plug this into the equation to get 4n = 8000

Solve for n

Now that we have an equation, we can solve for n by dividing both sides by 4

4n = 8000

n = 8000 / 4 = 2000

Final Answer

Fiona has collected 2000 signatures so far

Please answer if you know the answer!<br><br> [Help]
Alinara [238K]

Remember that an exponent means repeated multiplication.

The exponent of 4 means you have four \big(b^2\big)'s mutiplied together:

      \big(b^2\big)\cdot\big(b^2\big)\cdot\big(b^2\big)\cdot\big(b^2\big)

And then each exponent of 2 inside means you have two b's multiplied inside each set of parentheses.:  

    \big(b\cdot b\big)\cdot\big(b\cdot b\big)\cdot\big(b\cdot b\big)\cdot\big(b\cdot b\big)

There are 8 b's there when you expand this out.
