How many solutions does this system have? y=5x-1 y=-3+7

I'll assume that's

y=5x-1

y=-3x + 7

Please let me know if that's wrong.

These are two lines in point slope form.   They'll meet at some x that makes the ys equal.


5x-1 = -3x + 7

5x + 3x =1+ 7

8x= 8

x= 1
 
y=5x-1 = 5(1)-1 = 4

(x,y)=(1,4) is the only solution.

Exactly one solution.

We really only had to ensure the lines had two different slopes.  Then there's always exactly one solution.

If the lines had the same slope, they're either the same line (coincident) so an infinite number of solutions, all the points on that line, or they're parallel, no solutions.

3 times 5 with a two on the top
jenyasd209 [6]
Ok so it could be
1. \frac{2}{3 times 5}
2. 3 timies \frac{2}{5}


ok if 1. then
\frac{2}{3 times 5}=\frac{2}{15}

if 2.  3 timies \frac{2}{5}= \frac{6}{5}

If 1/a + 1/b =1/c and ab=c,what is the average of a and b?
goblinko [34]
If we solve the left side of the given equation,
                                  1/a + 1/b = 1/c
 we get an answer of,
                                    b+a / ab = 1/c
Since ab = c, we can conclude that b + a is 1. The average of these two numbers is equal to there sum divided by 2. The answer is therefore equal to 0.5.
