How many solutions does the system formed by x - y = 9 and

Mathematics

Brut [27]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  • infinite
  • -9
  • 9

Step-by-step explanation:

If you read through the bottom paragraph, you see it concludes with, "the equations describe the same line." This means the system has infinite solutions, because the two lines intersect everywhere.

__

The rest of the solution is described in the paragraph. Starting with the rearranged form

  -ax +ay +9a = 0

"subtract 9a from both sides" means you now have ...

  -ax +ay +9a -9a = 0 -9a

or

  -ax +ay = -9a . . . . . . . . "-9" goes in the first box

__

Now, dividing by -a gives you ...

  (-ax)/(-a) +(ay)/(-a) + (-9a)/(-a)

  x - y = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . "9" goes in the second box, confirmed by the following statement that the equations (this, and x - y = 9) "describe the same line".

Is the point (8, -3) a solution to the linear equation 2x + 3y = 12
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

No, (8, -3) is not a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 12

(substitute the variables for the point; x = 8 & y = -3)

2(8) + 3(-3) = 12

16 - 9 = 12

7 ≠ 12

viktelen [127]
She is 24

26(1/2)=13
13+((24-3)1/3)
13+(21*1/3)
13+7=20
Therefore she is 24
