Answer:

The given system of equations is ''consistent and independent''.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

2x-y=-3 ---- Equation A

4x-2y=-6 ---- Equation B

Please observe that each line of the system of equations can be written in two different forms

For example,

2x-y=-3 ---- Equation A

multiply Equation A by the number 2

2(2x-y) = -3×2

4x-2y = -6 ---- Equation B

So, when we multiplied Equation A by 2, we got the Equation B

We know that when the same line can be written in two different forms, then the system will be termed as the dependent system of equations and there would be infinite solutions.

In other words, it would contain the same line.

From the attached diagram, it is clear that 2x-y=-3 and 4x-2y=-6 represent the same line.

Thus,

The given system of equations is ''consistent and independent''.

What is a8 for the geometric sequence 6,561;−2,187;729;−243;…6,561;−2,187;729;−243;….

VMariaS [17]

Consider a geometric sequence $(u_n)$

let $u_1=a$ and the common ratio be r, then the sequence is constructed as follows:

$u_1, u_2, u_3..... = a, ar, a r^{2}, a r^{3}, ...$

we can observe that each term of the sequence is its previous term * r.

In the given sequence, to find the common ratio we divide 6,561 by −2,187 and get -3. This means that $r= -\frac{1}{3}$

Let the first term $u_1=a=6,561$ ,

then the eighth term is

$u_8=a* r^{7}= 6,561 (- \frac{1}{3} )^{7}= -6,561*( \frac{1}{3} )^{7}= \frac{-6,561}{2187} =-3$

(x²+10x+7)(2x-1) = 2x³+19x²+4x-7 show the steps

sasho [114]

Answer: See below

Explanation:
(x^2+10x+7)(2x-1) = 2x^3+19x^2+4x-7
2x^3-x^2+20x^2-10x+14x-7 = 2x^3+19x^2+4x-7

2x^3+19x^2+4x-7 = 2x^3+19x^2+4x-7

Determine the intercepts of the line. y=−2x−21

yuradex [85]

Hi there!

Let's first determine the x-intercept. When dealing with an x-intercept we must realise the y-coordinates equal 0.

$y = - 2x - 21 \\ y = 0 \\ \\ - 2x - 21 = 0$
Add 21 to both sides.

$- 2x = 21$
Divide both sides by -2.

$x = \frac{21}{2} = 10 \frac{1}{2}$
Therefore, the x-intercept is the point (10 1/2; 0).

--------------------------------------
Now let's continue with the y-intercept, which is easier. When dealing with an y-intercept we must realise the x-coordinates equal 0.

$y = - 2x - 21 \\ x = 0 \\ \\ y = - 2 \times 0 - 21 = - 21$
Therefore, the y-intercept is the point (0; -21).

How many different arrangements can be made with the letters in the word SCARLET?

valkas [14]

Well , SCARLET has 7 letters S-C-A-R-L-E-T

so the amount of different arrangements would be 7!

= 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1

= C. 5040

Hope this helps
