Answer:
The system of equations has one solution. The two equations are intersecting lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
if you want to use the substitution method, you would have to plug in y for 12x+2 in the second equation.
2(12x+2)=x+4
next, you have to distribute
24x+4=x+4
subtract 24x from each side
4=-23x+4
subtract 4 from each side
0=23x
divide each side by 23
x=0
now, plug in 0 to one equation.
y=12(0)+2
y=2
the lines intersect at one point, (0,2)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1,5)....x1 = -1 and y1 = 5
(-5,-5)..x2 = -5 and y2 = -5
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (-5 - 5) / (-5 - (-1) = -10 / (-5 + 1) = -10/-4 = 5/2 <===
Five candles. 25 ounces divided by 5 ounces equals 5 candles.
