Two lines have a slope of 3 and different y-intercepts how many solutions will this system have

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

0 solutions / no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, it means that they are parallel.

For example, we have two lines:

y = x

y = x + 1

Both lines have the same slope of 1, but different y - intercepts. Because each equation increases the x and y at the same right (slope) but started at different points, the two equations will never touch.

It's similar to two runner who run at the same pace. If one runner started 50 meters ahead, that runner will always be ahead 50 meters (y-intercept) because they both run at the same rate.

The bases of the trapezoid are 6 and 10. The height is 4. Find the area.

ollegr [7]

Answer

b. 32 sq. unit

Step-by-step Explanation

The area of the trapezoid is given by

$A = \frac{1}{2} (b_{1} + b_{2}) \times h$

We substitute the given values into the formula to obtain;

$A = \frac{1}{2}(10 + 6) \times 4$

Simplify

$A = \frac{1}{2} (16) \times 4$

$A = 16 \times 2$
Hence the area is

$A = 36 \: sq \: units$

How do u do percentage

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ill try to break this down, simply:

When we talk about percentages we are talking about how much part of something we have and the percent sign is a just a symbol representing that.

Lets say we have 2 out of 10 apples and we need to convert this to a percentage

First think about how many apples we have in total... and that would be 10, and then how many apples we currently have being 2:

So if we put the part that we have over the whole thing we get:

$\frac{2}{10}$

So now lets turn this into a decimal, when its something over 10 its really easy, all we have to do is move the decimal back one place!

So we have 2 and if we move the decimal back one place we get .2 or 0.2

Now we have our decimal, to convert this into a percentage all we have to do is multiply our decimal by 100

So:

0.2 x 100 = 20%

All you do when you multiply by 100 is move the decimal back over 2 places one place for each zero so:

0.2 --> 2. --> 20.

Which gives us again 20%

Solve 3 + 4x > -5 for x

Debora [2.8K]

you have the following inequality:

3 + 4x > -5

in order to solve for x, proceed as follow:

3 + 4x > -5 subtract 3 both sides

4x > - 5 - 3

4x > -8 divide by 4 both sides

x > -8/4

x > -2

Hence, the solution to the given inequality is x > -2
