ANSWER
EXPLANATION
We want to simplify the given expression using the distributive property:
To do this, use every term in the first bracket to multiply each term in the second bracket:
Now simplify:
That is the answer.
To divide fractions, we do Keep, Change, Flip. Keep means that we keep the first fraction the same ( which is 8/1). Then for Change, we change the division sign to a multiplication sign. After that we Flip the second fraction itś reciprocal (or multiplicative inverse).
So your equation would be:
8/1 x 3/1 which equals 24
Answer: y=3/4x + 1/2
Step-by-step explanation: Parallel lines must have the same slope, so you already know the equation must be something like y=3/4x+b. You are given a point that the line goes thru(2,2), so you can plug this point into the equation to solve for b.
(2)=3/4(2) + b
2=6/4 + b
2= 3/2 + b
b= 2-3/2
b=4/2- 3/2
b=1/2
so y=3/4x + 1/2
For a system of linear equations to have no solution, they must be parallel. If you imagine the graph of two parallel lines, they can never intersect, meaning there cannot be a solution/a point that is on both lines.
For two lines to be parallel they must have the same slope, so the m value of both equations are the same. The b value can be any value you want, as long as they don't have the same b value (or else they'd be the same line! and the same lines have an infinite number of solutions).
One pair could be:
y=3x+3 and y=3x+9
But you can come up one yourself you'd like :)
