Answer: B) Infinitely many solutions; both equations are equivalent
==============================================================
Work Shown:
x+y = 4 ... start with the first equation
x + (-x+4) = 4 ... replace y with (-x+4)
x-x+4 = 4
0x+4 = 4
0+4 = 4
4 = 4 ... this is a true statement regardless of what x you pick
So there are infinitely many solutions. Each solution (x,y) is of the form (x,-x+4). All solutions fall on the line y = -x+4 which is equivalent to x+y = 4. Note how we add x to both sides.
Or you could start with x+y = 4 and subtract x from both sides to get y = -x+4. Either way, we're dealing with the same equation which is why they both graph out the same line.
Answer:
y = -
x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 3x - 3 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 3
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
, hence
y = -
x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line
To find c substitute (3, 1) into the partial equation
1 = - 1 + c ⇒ c = 1 + 1 = 2
y = -
x + 2 ← equation of perpendicular line

Answer:
4.0506100 x 10^-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Because all you need to do is move the decimal point to the right once, you write 10^-1 to show that to get back to the original number, you just multiply 4.0506100 by -0.1
