Solve the system of equations. If the system has no solution, say that it is inconsistent. Graph the lines of the system.
1 answer:
Answer:
c. The system is inconsistent
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiplying the first equation by 2 gives ...
4x +2y = 4
Compare this to the second equation:
4x +2y = -5
There are no values of x and y that can satisfy both equations. The system is inconsistent.
_____
The equations describe lines that are parallel and do not intersect.

The GCF of 18 and 36 is 18. To solve this, use the picture attached. After creating the boxes, find a number that both 18 and 36 can be divided by, for example, 9. Now that you have 9, divide both 18 and 36 by 9. That equals 2 and 4. Place the numbers underneath the boxes you made previously and find another number that both 2 and 4 are divisible by. 2 and 4 are both able to be divided into 2. Do 2 divided by 2 and 4 divided by 2. Now you have the numbers 1 and 2. There aren't any numbers that can be divided into 1 and 2, so now you are left with the numbers 9 and 2. Multiply the numbers together to get a GCF of 18. Hope this helped!
