X + y = 3, 4y = -4x - 4 System of Equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
alexdok [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given this system of equations:

x+y=3

4y=-4x-4

and we need to solve it (find the point where the lines intersect, as these are linear equations)

let's solve this system by substitution, where we will set one variable equal to an expression containing the other variable, substitute that expression to solve for the variable the expression contains, and then use the value of the solved variable to find the value of the first variable

we'll use the second equation (4y=-4x-4), as there is already only one variable on one side of the equation. Every number is multiplied by 4, so we'll divide both sides by 4

y=-x-1

now we have y set as an expression containing x

substitute -x-1 as y in x+y=3 to solve for x

x+-x-1=3

combine like terms

-1=3

This statement is untrue, meaning that the lines x+y=3 and 4y=-4x-4 won't intersect.

Therefore the answer is no solutions

Hope this helps! :)

The graph below shows the two equations graphed; they are parallel, which means they will never intersect. If they don't intersect, there's no common solution

An oil tanker can be emptied by the main pump in 5 hours. An auxiliary pump can empty the tanker in 7 hours. If the main pump is
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

so the answer will be 1

Step-by-step explanation:

An oil tanker can be emptied by the main pump in 5 hours.

An auxilary pump can empty the tanker in 14 hours.

If the main pump is started at 7pm, when should the auxilary pump be started

so that the tanker is emptied by 11pm?

:

Let t = no. of hrs to run the Aux pump

:

The main pump will run 4 hr (7 - 11 pm)

:

Let the completed job = 1; (an empty Tanker)

:

The shared work equation

4%2F5 + t%2F14 = 1

Multiply equation by 70 to get rid of the equation, results:

14(4) + 5t = 70

56 + 5t = 70

5t = 70 - 56

5t = 14

t = 14%2F5

t = 2.8 hrs to run the aux pump

:

2.8 hr = 2 + .8(60) = 2 hrs 48 min

:

Subtract 2:48 from 11:00 = 8:12 PM start the aux pump

;

;

Check solution

4/5 + 2.8/14 =

.8 + .2 = 1
