Answer:

Except k=7, any real number for k would cause the system of equations to have no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

In general a system of equations can be represented as ax+by=c and dx+ey=f. In order this system of equations to have NO SOLUTIONS a/d=b/a≠c/f. In our example a=6, b=4, c=14, d=3, e=2 and f=k. To apply the formula above, 6/3=4/2≠14/k. Hence k≠7. It can be concluded that except k=7, any real number for k would cause the system of equations to have no solutions.

Just for information, if k=7 the system will have infinitely many solutions.

Sample Response: k = 7 proves the equations are equivalent and, therefore, have infinitely many solutions. That is illustrated by the fact that multiplying 2 by 3x +2y = 7 will create the equivalent of 6x + 4y =14.

Mrs. Ramiriz is making pies to sell at the local farmer’s market. It costs her $5 to make each pie, plus a one-time cost of $30
belka [17]
5p + 30 = 12p <== ur equation
5p - 12p = -30
-7p = -30
p = -30/-7
p = 4 2/7 pies to break even

Can someone please help? (Year 9 Math) This question is on fractions. Please see picture attached (ex. 2a and b) please show met
Ierofanga [76]

for 2a, use the theorems of geometry and such to look at the area of the square as 16 squares total, then use the lengths and Sim/cos rule for the triangular area, then subtract and you have you shaded area.

If f(x)=mx+b what are the values of m and b​
GaryK [48]

The m variable is the slope of the line and controls its 'steepness'. A positive value has the slope going up to the right. A negative slope goes down to the right. The b variable is the y intercept - the point where the line crosses the y axis.

example 1                                                    

y = mx + b

m = slope b = y-intercept

y = 3x - 1

m = 3 and b = -1

example 2

y = b + m<em>x</em><em> </em>

b = y-intercept m = slope

y = 5 - 1/2x

m =- 1/2 and b = 5
