Answer:  

The converse and contrapositive of the given conditional statement are :

Converse : "If x is an even number, then 2 divides x".

Contrapositive : "If x is not an even number, then 2 does not divide x."

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to write the converse and contrapositive of the following conditional statement :

"If 2 divides x, then x is an even number."

Let us consider that

p : 2 divides x

and

q : x is an even number.

We know that

the CONVERSE of a conditional statement p ⇒ q is written as q ⇒ p.

So, the converse of the given statement is

"If x is an even number, then 2 divides x".

The CONTRAPOSITIVE of the conditional statement  p ⇒ q is written as ~q ⇒ ~p (where ~p stands for the negation of p).

So, the contrapositive of the given statement is

"If x is not an even number, then 2 does not divide x."

Thus, the converse and contrapositive of the given statement are :

Converse : "If x is an even number, then 2 divides x".

Contrapositive : "If x is not an even number, then 2 does not divide x."

Graph the system of equations. Then determine whether the system has no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions. If
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Second option: One solution. Independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Since the equations of the system have this form, we know that they are lines.

We can identify that the y-intercept of the first equation y=-5x+1 is:

b=1

Now we need to find the x-intercept. Substitute y=0 and solve for "x":

0=-5x+1\\\\5x=1\\\\x=\frac{1}{5}=0.2

Then, we can graph the first line which passess through the points (0,1) and (0.2,0). Observe the graph attached.

The y-intercept of the second equation y=-2x-2 is:

b=-2

Now we need to find the x-intercept. Substitute y=0 and solve for "x":

0=-2x-2\\\\2x=-2\\\\x=\frac{-2}{2}=-1

Then, we can graph the second line, which passess through the points (0,-2) and (-1,0).

You can observe in the graph that the lines intersect at the point (1,-4). Therefore, that point is the solution of the system of equations.

Since the lines intersect, then there is one solution that is true for both equations. It is independent

Calculate the shaded areas for c and d
KiRa [710]
C)
Area of full triangle
1/2(8)(6)=24cm^2
Area of non shaded triangle
1/2(4)(3)=6cm^2
Area of full minus area of small triangle
24-6=18cm^2

D)
Area of Big rectangle
(4)(12)=48
Area of non shaded triangle
1/2(9)(4)=18
Area of Big rectangle minus non shaded triangle
48-18=30cm^2
