Answer:

When two lines are cut by a transversal, if the alternate interior angles are equal in measure, then the lines are always parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that when two lines are cut by a transversal, if the alternate interior angles are equal in measure,

then we have to tell lines are parallel or not.

Alternate interior angles are the angles formed on the inner side of two lines but on the opposite sides.

The above two angles are equal if two lines which cut by transversal are parallel.

Hence, when two lines are cut by a transversal, if the alternate interior angles are equal in measure, then the lines are always parallel.

Every day, the volume increases by 24 1/2+15 1/4=39 3/4 gallons. So after 5 days, the volume increases by 39 3/4 * 5 = 795/4= 198.75 gallons

David is pouring an entire gallon of milk into 12 glasses. What part of a gallon will be in each glass

expeople1 [14]

This question calls for a fraction. In a fraction, the numerator (top number) is the number of parts, while the denominator (bottom number) is the total number of parts. One part is one glass of milk, and there are 12 parts total. So, we get the answer 1/12.

Answer: 1/12

Determine if the following system of equations has no solutions 4x+3y= -8 -8x-6y= 16

cupoosta [38]

$\begin{cases} 4x+3y=-8\\\\ -8x-6y=16 \end{cases}~\hspace{10em} \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$4x+3y=-8\implies 3y=-4x-8\implies y=\cfrac{-4x-8}{3}\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{4}{3}} x-\cfrac{8}{3} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ -8x-6y=16\implies -6y=8x+16\implies y=\cfrac{8x+16}{-6} \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{8}{-6}x+\cfrac{16}{-6}\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{4}{3}} x-\cfrac{8}{3}$

one simple way to tell if both equations do ever meet or have a solution is by checking their slope, notice in this case the slopes are the same for both, meaning the lines are parallel lines, however, notice both equations are really the same, namely the 2nd equation is really the 1st one in disguise.

since both equations are equal, their graph will be of one line pancaked on top of the other, and the solutions is where they meet, hell, they meet everywhere since one is on top of the other, so infinitely many solutions.
