100 Points! What are the classifications of each system?

alexdok [17]

Answer:

Part 1) Is a inconsistent system

Part 2) Is a consistent independent system

Part 3) Is a consistent dependent system

see the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .

If a consistent system has exactly one solution, it is independent .

If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent

If a system not have solution, it is said to be inconsistent

Part 1) we have

$x+5y=-2\\x+5y=4$

This system of linear equations has two parallel lines (their slopes are equal) with different y-intercept

The lines don't intersect

The system has no solution

therefore

Is a inconsistent system

Part 2) we have

$y=3x+4\\-2x+y=4$

we know that

If two lines have different slopes, then the lines intersect at one point and the system of equations has one solution

In this problem, the lines have different slopes (m=3 and m=2)

The lines intersect at one point

The system has one solution

therefore

Is a consistent independent system

Part 3) we have

$3x+y=4$ ----> equation A

$-6x-2y=-8$ ----> equation B

Multiply equation A by -2 both sides

$-2(3x+y)=-2(4)$

$-6x-2y=-8$ ----> equation C

Compare equation B and equation C

Are identical lines

The system has infinity solutions

therefore

Is a consistent dependent system

A cylinder is sliced by a plane that is not parallel to the base and intersects only the lateral surface. the resulting cross se

Oxana [17]

The cylinder that is sliced by the plane which is not parallel to the base of the cylinder and intersects only at the lateral surface is called an ellipse.

<h3>What is the formation of an Ellipse in a Cylinder?</h3>

When a cylinder with a longitudinal axis (z) is sliced at an angle to the xy plane, an elliptical shape is created.

In a circle, every plane crosses a circular cylinder perpendicularly to its axis. A plane that is neither at right angles to the axis nor parallel to it, crosses the cylinder in an elliptical shape.
