<h2>Answer:</h2>

The number of solutions will be one.

( i.e. the system of equation has a unique solution )

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a system of equations such that:

One of the equation has a negative reciprocal slope as compared to the other.

This means that the two lines are perpendicular.

Hence, the two lines will definitely meet or intersect at just one point and at right angles.

Also we know that the solutions  of a system of linear equations are the points where the two lines intersect.

Hence, we will have just one solution.

( since here the two lines will intersect at just one point )

If 9: x= x-4, then x=<br> 0 36<br> 18<br> 0 24<br> 6
madam [21]

Answer:

2±√13

Step-by-step explanation:

9/x=x-4

x² -4x - 9=0

x² -4x +4- 13=0

(x -2)²=13

x-2= ±√13

x= 2±√13

Jack bought 3 slices of cheese pizza and 4 slices of mushroom pizza for a total cost of $12.50. Grace
NeX [460]

The right answer is option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Slice of Cheese Pizza = x

Slice of Mushroom Pizza = y

According to given statement;

3x + 4y = 12.50 Eqn 1

3x + 2y = 8.50  Eqn 2

Subtract Eqn 2 from Eqn 1;

(3x+4y)-(3x+2y)=12.50-8.50\\3x+4y-3x-2y=4.00\\2y=4.00\\y=\frac{4.00}{2} \\y=2.00

As y is supposed as slice of mushroom, the price of one slice of mushroom pizza is $2.00

The right answer is option 2.
