Identify the system by type
1 answer:
Answer:
Inconsistent system
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The attached graph
Required
The type of system
When two lines are parallel, it means they have the same slope and as such, the system has no solution.
Equations with the same slope are:
<em>Both have a slope of 2</em>
Such system are referred to inconsistent system.
Hence, (c) is correct.

Answer:
The maximum height it reaches is 20 meters
The time taken by it to reach the height is 2 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the height of the stone is h = u t - g t², where
- t is the time to reach the height h
- u is the initial velocity
- g is the acceleration of gravity
∵ A stone is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20 m/s
∴ u = 20 m/s
∵ g = 10 m/s²
→ Substitute them in the equation above
∴ h(t) = 20t - (10) t²
∴ h(t) = 20t - 5t²
→ Arrange the terms of the right side according to the greatest power of t
∴ h(t) = -5t² + 20t
To find the maximum height and the time of it find the vertex of the quadratic function (m, k), where m = and k is the value of h at t = m, a is the coefficient of t² and b is the coefficient of t
∵ The coefficient of t² is -5
∴ a = -5
∵ The coefficient of t is 20
∴ b = 20
→ Use them to find h
∵ m = =
= h
∴ m = 2
→ Substitute it in the equation above to find k
∵ h(m) = k
∵ k = -5(2)² + 20(2)
∴ k = -5(4) + 40
∴ k = -20 + 40
∴ k = 20
∴ The coordinate of the vertex of the function are (2, 20)
→ m represents the time of the maximum height and k represents
the maximum height
∴ The maximum height it reaches is 20 meters
∴ The time taken by it to reach the height is 2 seconds
