How many solutions does the system formed by x-y=3 and ay-ax+3a=0 have for a nonzero number a? Explain.

1 answer:

4 0

There's no solution that is nonzero.
x-y=3
x = 3+y

Substitute that to the second equation.
ay-a(3+y)+3a=0
6a=0
a=0

y = x-3

Substitute that to the second equation
a(x-3)-ax+3a=0
0 = 0

Area = $\pi r^{2}$
area = $\pi$ x 1 x 1 = $\pi$

Circumference = $2\pi r$
Circumference = 2 x $\pi$ x1
Circumference = 2 $\pi$

The circumference is greater than the area
