Answer:
a. Parallel
b. Not parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Systems which have no solutions are parallel lines. These lines do not intersect and therefore have no solution. Remember, parallel lines have the same slope. Compare the slope in each equation when in y=mx+b format to see if they are parallel.
a. y= 2x + 3 y-2x=-3 becomes y = 2x - 3
m = 2 m= 2
The slopes are the same so these are parallel lines.
b. 3x + y = 2 becomes y= -3x + 2 y = 1/3 x + 1/2
m = -3 m= 1/3
The slopes are different so this is not parallel.
Since -3 and 1/3 are the negative reciprocals of each other. These lines are actually perpendicular.
Answer:
1 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4=2/8
2+2/8-3/8= 1 7/8
Eight less than the product of 2 and a number x is: 2x-8
x^5 is your answer because you add exponents when they are not in separate paretheses.
Smaller angle = 41°
Larger angle = 139°
Step-by-step explanation:
(7x - 1) + (2x + 1) = 180
7x + 2x - 1 + 1 = 180
9x = 180
x = 20
- The measure of the smaller angle is
2x + 1
= 2(20) + 1
= 40 + 1
<u>= 41°</u>
- The measure of the larger angle is
7x - 1
= 7(20) - 1
= 140 - 1
<u>= 139°</u>
