Answer:
C. one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of solutions can be found from the number of intersection points.
There are 2 lines, a parabola (curve) and a horizontal line that is parallel to the x axis.
We see that there is 1 point of intersection between the 2 lines, at (2,1)-right 2 and up 1. Therefore, this non linear system has 1 solution.
C. one solution is the correct answer.
Answer:
1) 6x = 21
2) x + y - 3
3) x/z = y
4) 2-x = p
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The product of a number x and 6 is 21
A product is a multiplication. A product of a and b is a * b.
We then have a product of x and 6, that x * 6, which we write usually in the format 6x.
is 21: that means it's equal to 21....
so 6x = 21.
2. The sum of the quantity x- 3 and y
The sum is an addition. The sum of a and b is a + b.
In this case, the first part is x - 3, the second part is y
So, x - 3 + y, which we usually rewrite as x + y - 3
3. The quotient of x and z is y
A quotient is a division.
So, quotient of x and z is x/z.
x/z = y
4. The difference of 2 and x is p.
A difference is a subtraction.
Difference of 2 and x is 2 - x
2 - x = p
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You aren't able to figure out an exact number of either footballs or basketballs because you don't have enough information for that, but you do have enough to get an expression for one in terms of the other, which I imagine is the point here. We know that for every 1 basketball sold, we sold 2.5 footballs, so the algebraic expression for that is
1 bball = 2.5 fballs
This gives us the number of bballs in terms of fballs but we want the number of fballs in terms of bballs, so solve that expression for fballs:
1 fball = 1/2.5 bballs
or, in words, for every single football sold, 2/5 of a basketball was sold. Sounds silly, but I think your teacher is trying to get you to figure out how to express one thing in terms of another so you can use the expressions in solving story problems.
