Answer:

m = 2 will be the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given lines are y = mx - 6 and 8x - 4y = 12

we have to find the value of m for which the system will be of parallel lines will have no solution.

If these lines are parallel then their slope will be same and they will have no solution.

The equation of a line is

-4y = 12 - 8x

4y = 8x - 12

y = 2x - 3

This line is parallel to y = mx - 6

So slope of this line will be 2 which will be same as line parallel to this line.

Therefore slope m = 2 will be the solution.

Answer:

The value of m is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given equation of system of parallel lines as:

y=mx-6

that means m is the slope of the line and -6 is the y-intercept.

and 8x-4y=12

this equation could also be represented in the slope intercept form as:

4y=8x-12\\\\y=\dfrac{8}{4}x-\dfrac{12}{4}\\\\y=2x-3

Hence the slope is 2 and the y-inetrcept is -3.

we know that slope of parallel lines must be equal.

that means the value of m=2.

Hence the value of m which will create a system of parallel lines with no solution is 2.

You are dealt two cards successfuly without replacement from a shuffled deck of 52 playing card. Find the probability that first
katen-ka-za [31]

The simplified expression is (\frac{4}{663})

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the total number of cards in a given deck = 52

let E : Event of drawing a first card which is King

Total number of kings in the given deck = 4

So, P(E) = \frac{\textrm{The total number of king}}{\textrm{The total number of cards}} = \frac{4}{52}  = (\frac{1}{13} )

Now, as the picked card is NOT REPLACED,

So, now the total number of cards = 52 - 1 = 51

Total number of queen in the deck is same as before = 13

let K : Event of drawing a second card which is queen

So, P(K) = \frac{\textrm{The total number of queen}}{\textrm{The total number of cards}} = (\frac{4}{51}  )

Now, the combined probability of picking first card as king and second as queen  = P(E) x P(K)  = (\frac{1}{13}) \times(\frac{4}{51}) = (\frac{4}{663} )

Hence, the simplified expression is (\frac{4}{663})

I think of a number, then divide by 5, then subtract 78 -the result is nine
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Imagine that the number that we are looking for is x

We know that:

x/5 - 78 = 9

x/5         = 9 + 78

x/5         = 87

x             = 87 . 5 = 435

So the number we need is 435
