Okay, so this is basically telling you that there is no solution. You don't have to worry about there being one. You just have to justify (or explain) why there isn't one.

Basically, neither y or x is equal to anything. You couldn't make x equal to a value in y because x and y are both together in the equation and equal to numbers.

We can always move a factor to the other side. So,

x-2y= -8

Add 2y to the other side.

x= -8+2y

Now, plug in -8+2y as x.

3(-8+2y)- 6y=-12

-24+6y-6y= -12

The 6y's cancel out. So, we can't figure out what y is.

-24=-12 <- no y.

These two lines are parallel. They have direct proportion in each other. That is why there is no solution because the lines never cross. Parallel lines do not cross.

I hope this helps!

Make c the subject: x=-b+(b²-4ac) divided by 2a The brackets mean square root

kipiarov [429]

$x=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\
2ax=-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\\
\sqrt{b^2-4ac}=2ax+b\\
b^2-4ac=(2ax+b)^2\\
-4ac=4a^2x^2+4abx+b^2-b^2\\
-4ac=4a^2x^2+4abx\\
c=-ax^2-bx$

A student pushes a 51.5 kilogram bookshelf across a smooth floor with a net force of 67 N.

iren [92.7K]

The acceleration of the bookshelf is equal to 1.30 $m/s^2$

Given the following data:

Mass of bookshelf = 51.5 kilogram

Net force = 67 Newton

To determine the acceleration of the bookshelf, we would apply Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object while being inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, Newton's Second Law of Motion is given by this formula;

$Acceleration = \frac{Net\;force}{Mass}$

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$Acceleration = \frac{67}{51.5}$

Acceleration = 1.30 $m/s^2$

yo i need help with this question please and thank u i need the correct answer to please i will give u a brainliest as well

Simora [160]

V = πr ^2 h
V = π (3)^2 (5)
V = π (9) (5)
V = π 45
V = 141.3 in
141.3 divided by 8 = 17.7
