Step-by-step explanation:

TO show that this system has no solution, use the y value in the second equation and put it in for y in the first. Then solve.

x + 2y = -4

x + 2(-1/2x - 4) = -4

x - x - 8 = -4

-8 = -4

Because this is an incorrect statement, we can tell there is no solution.

What is the value of sec theta given the diagram below?

marishachu [46]

Answer:

$\sec \theta=-\sqrt{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is $h^2=6^2+3^2$

$h^2=36+9$

$h^2=45$

$h=\sqrt{45}$

$h=3\sqrt{5}$

The terminal side of $\theta$ is in the second quadrant.

In this quadrant; the secant ratio is negative.

$\sec \theta=-\frac{hypotenuse}{adjacent}$

$\sec \theta=-\frac{3\sqrt{5}}{3}$

$\sec \theta=-\sqrt{5}$

Which of the following proportions can be used to prove AE || DK in the proof below? Select all that apply.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer: DA:FA=KE:EF, DF:DA=KF:KE and FA:DA=EF:KE are correct.

Explanation: Since, $\triangle EFA$ and $\triangle KFD$ are similar triangles.

Because, $\angle FAE= \angle FDK$ and $\angle FEA= \angle FKD$ (because EA and KD are parallels. And, $\angle F$ is common angle for these triangles.

Therefore, according to the property of similar triangles.

FE:EK= FA:AD, FE:FK=FA:FD and DF:DA=KF:KE .

Thus, first, second and third options are correct.
