1/2 (5-7x) = 8- 4x+6

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andre45 [30]3 years ago
7 0
1/2(5-7x)=8-4x+6
-7/2x+5/2=-4x+14                       Simplify both sides
1/2x+5/2=14                               Add 4x to both sides
1/2x=23/3                                   Subtract 5/2 on both sides
2*(1/2x)=2*(23/2)                       Multiply both sides by 2
x=23 - Final Answer

                                             Cheers, Irys

Determine if the solution set for the system of equations shown is the empty set, contains one point or is infinite.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

  one point

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of two linear equations will have one point in the solution set if the slopes of the lines are different.

__

When the equations are written in the same form, the ratio of x-coefficient to y-coefficient is related to the slope. It will be different if there is one solution.

  • ratio for first equation: 1/1 = 1
  • ratio for second equation: 1/-1 = -1

These lines have <em>different slopes</em>, so there is one solution to the system of equations.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

When the equations are in slope-intercept form with the y-coefficient equal to 1, the x-coefficient is the slope.

  y = mx +b . . . . . slope = m

When the equations are in standard form (as in this problem), the ratio of x- to y-coefficient is the opposite of the slope.

  ax +by = c . . . . . slope = -a/b

As long as the equations are in the same form, the slopes can be compared by comparing the ratios of coefficients.

__

If the slopes are the same, the lines may be either parallel (empty solution set) or coincident (infinite solution set). When the equations are in the same form with reduced coefficients, the lines will be coincident if they are the same equation.

The number of students at jefferson school is even. The number has three digits. The digit in the ten place is 4. write there nu
Burka [1]
Let's assign three blanks for each digit of the unknown number. But let's fill in the tens digit because it is already specified.

_ 4 _

The last digit should be even to make it even. The possible digits for this are 2, 4, 6, and 8. The first digit could be any digit from 1 to 9. Therefore, the possible answers are 

142  242  342  442  542  642  742  842  942
144  244  344  444  544  644  744  844  944
146  246  346  446  546  646  746  846  946
148  248  348  448  548  648  748  848  948

Therefore, there are a total of 36 possible answers.
