Question 14

Mathematics

Answer:

The system of equations has a one unique solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To quickly determine the number of solutions of a linear system of equations, we need to express each of the equations in slope-intercept form, so we can compare their slopes, and decide:

1) if they intersect at a unique point (when the slopes are different) thus giving a one solution, or

2) if the slopes have the exact  same value giving parallel lines (with no intersections, and the y-intercept is different so there is no solution), or

3) if there is an infinite number of solutions (both lines are exactly the same, that is same slope and same y-intercept)

So we write them in slope -intercept form:

First equation:

6x+y=-1\\y=-6x-1

second equation:

-6x-4y=4\\-6x=4y+4\\-6x-4=4y\\y=-\frac{3}{2} x-1

So we see that their slopes are different (for the first one slope = -6, and for the second one slope= -3/2) and then the lines must intercept in a one unique point. Therefore the system of equations has a one unique solution.

What is a detailed example of simple interest?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Car loans, amortized monthly, and retailer installment loans, also calculated monthly, are examples of simple interest; as the loan balance dips with each monthly payment, so does the interest. Certificates of deposit (CDs) pay a specific amount in interest on a set date, representing simple interest

Are the dotted lines in the shape parallel, perpendicular or intersecting?
slava [35]

Answer:

<em>Parallel</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The dotted lines are parallel because they have the same <u>gradient</u> to each other, this means the two dotted lines will <u>never</u> touch each other.
