<u>the correct question is</u>
The denarius was a unit of currency in ancient rome. Suppose it costs the roman government 10 denarii per day to support 4 legionaries and 4 archers. It only costs 5 denarii per day to support 2 legionaries and 2 archers. Use a system of linear equations in two variables. Can we solve for a unique cost for each soldier?
Let
x-------> the cost to support a legionary per day
y-------> the cost to support an archer per day
we know that
4x+4y=10 ---------> equation 1
2x+2y=5 ---------> equation 2
If you multiply equation 1 by 2
2*(2x+2y)=2*5-----------> 4x+4y=10
so
equation 1 and equation 2 are the same
The system has infinite solutions-------> Is a consistent dependent system
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
We cannot solve for a unique cost for each soldier, because there are infinite solutions.
1) -8 and 3
because -8+3= -5 and -8x3=24
2) -8 and -5
because -8-5=-13 and -8x-5=40
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = 6
a2 = -1.2*a_(n-1)
a2 = -1.2*a_1
a2 = -1.2 * 6
a2 = -7.2
a3 = -1.2*a_(n-1)
a3 = -1.2*a_2
a3 = -1.2 * - 7.2
a3 = 8.64
a4 = -1.2 * a_3
a4 = -1.2 * 8.64
a4 = -10.368
Answer:
he is an ordinary man because that is what the speaker is talking about
A prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself
For example, the number 7 has two factors: 1,7 This makes 7 a prime number
Since the number has to be greater than 50, we can go to the next whole number; 51
51 has four factors, 1,3,17,51 This is not our prime number
52 is even so obviously it's not prime because you can divide by two
53 has only two factors; 1,53 This means that its prime and the answer is 53 :)
