Consider the system of equations shown below. y = negative 5 x + 1. y = negative 5 x + 10 When graphed, the system consists of t

wo lines that will never meet, no matter how far they are extended. Why are the lines parallel? The linear equations have the same slope and y-intercept. The linear equations have different slopes and y-intercepts. The linear equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts. The linear equations have different slopes but the same y-intercept.

The reason why both graphs are parallel because they have the same slope but different y-intercept.

Think about it. If both graphs have same slope and same y-intercept. The graph will intercept each others infinitely.

Then if we change the y-intercept into any numbers that aren't the same as another equations for ex.

y = -5x+1 and y = -5x+10

then we will get the parallel graph. Or if you solve the equation, the equation will not be true, thus giving the graph parallel.

But if it is y = -5x+1 and y = -5x+1 which both are the same graph. Then the graph will intercept each others infinitely. Or if we solve the equation, we will get 0 = 0 which makes the equation true for all real numbers.

Therefore, the reason why both graphs are parallel is because that they have the same slope but different y-intercept.

That's all.

Doss [256]
You need to divide 320000 by 2 since the speed was divided by 2. The final answer is ...... 160000 Joules.

I hope this helped!!!! :D

I only need to know question b, if anyone can help
kicyunya [14]

243 liters represents 7/10 - 1/4 of the water.

v=243 / (7/10 - 1/4) = 243 / (14/20-5/20) = 243(20)/9 = 540 liters.

Answer: 540 liters

Check:

(7/10)(540) = 7(54) = 378

(1/4)540 = 135

difference = 378 - 135 = 243  good

Find the value of x if w is perpendicular to y
Marta_Voda [28]
This relationship again shows that since w and y are perpendicular to each other that the smaller angles will add up to give 90 degrees.

3x + 3 + 15 = 90

3x + 18 = 90

3x = 90 - 18

3x = 72

X =72/3

X = 36 degrees

I need to know this quick! 10 points is Max sorry
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5}{6}\cdot \frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{12}

Multiply top and bottom, on the top we get 5*1 which is 5 and on the bottom we get 6*2 which is 12.
