Answer:

I believe your asking for the ratio of dogs to cats. Your ratio would be 6:1 and your ratio for cats to dogs is 1:6 Hope it helps.

What value of b will cause the system to have an infinite number of solutions?

irga5000 [103]

b must be equal to -6 for infinitely many solutions for system of equations $y = 6x + b$ and $-3 x+\frac{1}{2} y=-3$

<u>Solution: </u>

Need to calculate value of b so that given system of equations have an infinite number of solutions

$\begin{array}{l}{y=6 x+b} \\\\ {-3 x+\frac{1}{2} y=-3}\end{array}$

Let us bring the equations in same form for sake of simplicity in comparison

$\begin{array}{l}{y=6 x+b} \\\\ {\Rightarrow-6 x+y-b=0 \Rightarrow (1)} \\\\ {\Rightarrow-3 x+\frac{1}{2} y=-3} \\\\ {\Rightarrow -6 x+y=-6} \\\\ {\Rightarrow -6 x+y+6=0 \Rightarrow(2)}\end{array}$

Now we have two equations

$\begin{array}{l}{-6 x+y-b=0\Rightarrow(1)} \\\\ {-6 x+y+6=0\Rightarrow(2)}\end{array}$

Let us first see what is requirement for system of equations have an infinite number of solutions

If $a_{1} x+b_{1} y+c_{1}=0$ and $a_{2} x+b_{2} y+c_{2}=0$ are two equation

$\Rightarrow \frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$ then the given system of equation has no infinitely many solutions.

In our case,

$\begin{array}{l}{a_{1}=-6, \mathrm{b}_{1}=1 \text { and } c_{1}=-\mathrm{b}} \\\\ {a_{2}=-6, \mathrm{b}_{2}=1 \text { and } c_{2}=6} \\\\ {\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{-6}{-6}=1} \\\\ {\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{1}{1}=1} \\\\ {\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}=\frac{-b}{6}}\end{array}$

As for infinitely many solutions $\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$

$\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow 1=1=\frac{-b}{6}} \\\\ {\Rightarrow6=-b} \\\\ {\Rightarrow b=-6}\end{array}$

Hence b must be equal to -6 for infinitely many solutions for system of equations $y = 6x + b$ and $-3 x+\frac{1}{2} y=-3$

This is 70 points I will report anyone who answers wrong just for points! I will be asking TWO questions Please answer correctly

Ratling [72]

QUESTION 1: In these type of question, the easiest way to get the answer is try to plug in the x and y values from the options given in the equation given, So in the first question all the choice except C are more then 14 if you plug in x and y's, for eg, if you plug in x = 3 and y = 2 , you get (3+3)2 = 14 6 x 2 = 14 12 is not equal to 14, so this eliminates this choice but if you chose C you get, (11+3)1 = 14 14 = 14 so this makes C the solution for first question and for the second question do the same thing, and the answer will be D. Hope this helps

QUESTION 2: 5xy + 9 = 44

5xy = 35

xy = 7

solution pairs are:

C. (1, 7) and (7, 1)

not mentioned: (-1.-7) and (-7, -1)

Hope this helps

Pls help me with this question and explain how you got the answer!!!!!

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

-87

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first to find <em>x</em> you need to subtract 121 from 180. You do this because both the angle which measures 121 degrees and <em>x</em> lie on the same line, and since a line has an angle measure of 180, you do 180-121 to find <em>x</em>. The same thing can be done for <em>y</em>. Since the angle measure of 34 degrees and y lie on the same line you can calculate 180-34 to get <em>y. </em>So, let's do that.

180-121=x

59=x

180-34=y

146=y

Once you've done that you can easily subtract the two and get your answer.

x-y

substitute the answer for the variables and get

59-146

and then your answer is

-87
