we can take a peek at two of those lines hmmm say y = 5x + 3 and y = 5x + 7.
let's notice, those two equations for those lines are in slope-intercept form, so let's solve the system.
since y = y then
5x + 3 = 5x + 7
3 = 7 what the?
well, notice, both lines have the same slope of 5, but different y-intercept, one has it at y = 3 and the other at y = 7, what does that mean?
it means that both lines are parallel to each other, one may well be above the other, but both are parallel, and since a solution to the system is where their graphs intersect, well, parallel lines never touch, so a system with two parallel lines has no solutions.
It doesn’t really matter which variable you isolate first but usually you would use the one that’s by itself already. like for example one of the equations was y = 8. you would already have your y solve for so you would just have to plug that in for y in the other equation. personally, i usually do x first unless one of the equations has either x or y by itself already. i think its easier to just do x first and then solve for y after that, but it just depends on what the equations are; sometimes it might be easier to just do y first. hope this helps!
Answer:
Wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is wrong. Two angles are coterminal if and only if the difference between their measures is a multiple of 360°.
The difference between the angles 180° and –180° is 360°, and they are coterminal. Therefore the student is WRONG.
Answer:
x=4
y=4√5
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up 3 right triangles and mark their respective angles. The largest will have sides (in typical a,b,c[hypotenuse] order) y, z, and 10. The middle 8, x, and y. The smallest x, 2, and z.
Then since they are all similar triangles, using the midde and smaller triangles, set up the proportionin which both A sides when divided are equal to the B sides.
So 8/x = x/2
Cross multiply and get 16=x^2.
The square root of 16 is 4, so x is 4.
Then using the larger and middle triangles, do the same for the A and C sides.
So y/8 = 10/y.
Cross multiply and get 80=y^2.
Find the square root of it, which since it doesn't have a perfect square, you use a calculator or the whatever theorem and get √4*4*5 or simply 4√5.
So x = 4 and y = 4√5
