Multiplying two negatives makes it positive.
Let's say her speed was x miles/hour during the first 3 miles runThen, time = distance/speedt1 = 3/x eq1 In the next 4 miles run, her speed = x-1 miles/hourTime taken:t2 = 4/(x-1) eq2 Now, total time:t1 + t2 = 1 3/5 hourssubstitute t1 and t2 from eqs. 1 and 2 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 1 3/5=> 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 8/5
=> 3(x-1) + 4x = 8x(x-1)/5=> 35x - 15 = 8x2 - 8x=> 8x2 - 43x + 15 = 0=> (8x-3)*(x-5) = 0=> x = 3/8 or 5 miles/hourx can not be 3/8 miles/hour because in that case, the speed during 4 miles run would be 3/8-1 = negative numberi.e. speed during 3 miles segment = 5 miles/hourand speed during 4 miles segment = 5-1 = 4 miles/hour
Answer:
The system is consistent; it has one solution ⇒ D
Step-by-step explanation:
A consistent system of equations has at least one solution
- The consistent independent system has exactly 1 solution
- The consistent dependent system has infinitely many solutions
An inconsistent system has no solution
In the system of equations ax + by = c and dx + ey = f, if
- a = d, b = e, and c = f, then the system is consistent dependent and has infinitely many solutions
- a = d, b = e, and c ≠ f, then the system is inconsistent and has no solution
- a ≠ d, and/or b ≠ e, and/or c ≠ f, then the system is consistent independent and has exactly one solution
In the given system of equations
∵ -2y + 2x = 3 ⇒ (1)
∵ -5y + 5x = 12 ⇒ (2)
→ By comparing equations (1) and (2)
∵ -2 ≠ -5
∵ 2 ≠ 5
∵ 3 ≠ 12
→ By using the 3rd rule above
∴ The system is consistent independent and has exactly one solution
∴ The system is consistent; it has one solution
3x4=12 gives him 12 baseballs. he has 5 fewer tennis balls than base balls so you subtract 5 from 12 and you get 7 tennis balls.
One car 1c
six bicycles 6b
two motorcycles
1c+6b+2m=9cbm
I think this is right but its been forever since i had to do these so
