In y = mx + b form, the slope will be in the m position and the y int will be in the b position
y = -2x + 2....slope = -2 and y int = 2
y = -2x - 3.....slope = -2 and y int = -3
when u have 2 lines that both have the same slope but different y intercepts, u have parallel lines with no solution because ur lines never intersect.
so ur answer is : no solutions or 0 solutions
Let, the speed of boat = x
Speed of current = y
So, x + y = 280/7
x + y = 40 ---- first equation
x - y = 280/14
x - y = 20
x = 20 + y
Substitute this value of x in first equation,
20 + y + y = 40
2y = 40 - 20
y = 20/2
y = 10
Substitute this in first equation,
x + 10 = 40
x = 30
In short, Speed of Boat = 30 mph, & speed of current = 10 mph
Hope this helps!
<span>1.</span>divide
P(x) by (x-1) to get the quadratic equation... from which can be solve
using any method in finding the roots of quadratic equation....
