Answer:
He is not correct, the answer is All Real Numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
When two lines are right on top of each other, the solution set is All Real Numbers that are on both lines because the solution set is the point(s) at which the lines overlap.
5x + 2y = 6
3x + y = 4....multiply by -2
-------------
5x + 2y = 6
-6x - 2y = -8 (result of multiplying by -2)
-------------add
-x = -2
x = 2
5x + 2y = 6
5(2) + 2y = 6
10 + 2y = 6
2y = 6 - 10
2y = -4
y = -4/2
y = -2 <=== here it is
The answer is the second option given
The plumber worked for 5 hours because 450-200=250 which gets rid of the initial fee so 250 divided by 50 is 5
If the slopes of the 2 lines are equal then they are parallel.
If m1m2 = -1 (where m1 and m2 are the slopes of the 2 lines) then they are perpendicular.
If the 2 slopes do not match either the first or second conditions then they are neither parallel or perpendicular.
