ANSWER

B. 1

EXPLANATION

The given system of equations is;

–2x + 4y = –7

y= -1/2x + 5

We rewrite the first equation is slope intercept form:

4y = 2x–7

y =  \frac{1}{2}x  -  \frac{7}{4}

The two equations have different slopes.

This means that they will intersect at one point in the XY plane.

Hence the system has a unique solution.

Find the equation of the line that passes through (-1, 4) and is perpendicular to the
statuscvo [17]
For perpendicular lines, m2 = -1/m1; where m1 is the slope of line 1 and m2 is the slope of line 2.
m1 = (-4 - 2)/(4 - 2) = -6/2 = -3
m2 = -1/-3 = 1/3
Equation of the required line is given by: y - 4 = 1/3 (x - (-1))
y - 4 = 1/3 x + 1/3
y = 1/3 x + 1/3 + 4
y = 1/3 x + 13/3

6x+12y+5+2y+8 what’s the coefficient of y and what’s the constant
Rudik [331]

The coefficient of y is 14 and the constant is 13.

You can find this by combining like terms first.

6x + 12y + 5 + 2y + 8

6x + 14y + 5 + 8

6x + 14y + 13

Now the coefficient is the number next to y. The constant is the number on its own.

Greg spent 6.4 hours working with his dad one Saturday. If his dad paid him$45.76, how much did Greg make per hour?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

$7.15

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to solve this is by crossing out the data you don't need so you're left looking at the key pieces to put the equation together. If his dad paid him $45.76 for 6.4 hours, then all you need to do is divide 45.76 by 6.4. (Hint: Use a calculator, it makes it ten times faster than trying to write it out!)

45.76 ÷ 6.4 = 7.15

So Greg made $7.15 an hour working with his dad.
