1. Lisa is working with the system of equations x+2y=7 and 2x−5y=5. She multiplies the first equation by 2 and then subtracts th

e second equation to find 9y=9, telling her that y=1. Lisa then finds that x=5. Thinking about this procedure, Lisa wonders: There are lots of ways I could go about solving this problem. I could add 5 times the first equation and twice the second or I could multiply the first equation by -2 and add the second. I seem to find that there is only one solution to the two equations but I wonder if I will get the same solution if I use a different method? A. What is the answer to Lisa's question? Explain. B. Does the answer to (a) change if we have a system of two equations in two unknowns with no solutions? What if there are infinitely many solutions? 2. Graph (Links to an external site.) the following linear system. What is the solution? y = 2x + 4 y = 3x + 2

Answer:

A. Yes

B. No

C. No

D. The graph of the equations is attached

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Yes, she will get the same solution

Given the solution is based on the two solutions, the solution will be the same for all algebraic methods used

B. No, the answer in A does not change

A system of two equations in two unknowns with no solution is an inconsistent system of equations and there should be no solutions for all correct algebraic methods used

C. No, the answer in A does not change

If there are infinitely many solutions, there will be infinitely many solutions for all correct algebraic methods used

D. The graph of the equations;

y = 2·x + 4...(1) and y = 3·x + 2.....(2) is attached

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2), we have;

3·x + 2 - (2·x + 4) = y - y = 0

x - 2 = 0

∴ x = 2

The graphs of the two equations also intersect at x = 2.

Find the values of x and y.
gogolik [260]

Answer:

If you have given an equation, you see the x and y in it. Just taking second equation and think any common factor between x's variable. With common factor, multiply both and you will find the value of y and put it in any equation, you will find the value of X.

What is the solution to the system of equations graphed below?
sweet [91]

Answer:

\text{B. }(2, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{cases}y=2x-7,\\y=-x-1\end

Since y=y:

2x-7=-x-1,\\3x=6,\\x=2

Solving for y:

y=2(2)-7=4-7=-3

Verify that the point of intersection occurs at \boxed{(2, -3)}\checkmark

A) 324

I divided 240 by 20 to get how much it would cost per kg. For each KG the cost is $12. So then I multiplied 12 by what was asked of you (27) which lead me to the answer of 324.

B) 512
Same concept as A. Divide to get how much gasoline is used per mile. That was 4 miles per 1 gas. Multiply 4 by whatever you have been asked for (128). That leads you to 512.

C) 648

Same concept as above.

D) 5,445
