<h3>Answer:</h3>

<u>Given equation</u>:– 2ax + by = a, 4ax + 2by - 2a = 0

a1 = 2a; b1 = b; c1 = - a & a2 = 4a; b2 = 2b; c2 = - 2a.

<u>For consistence, a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2 must be equal</u>

  • 2a/4a = b/2b = -a/-2a
  • 1/2 = 1/2 = 1/2

<u>So, The given equation is consistence</u>.

Yes.

<h3>Justification:</h3>

Here,

  • a1/a2 = 2a/4a = 1/2,
  • b1/b2 = b/2b = 1/2,
  • c1/c2 = - a/- 2a = 1/2.

∵ a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2

∴ <u>The given system of equations is consistent</u>.

If ⅙ of a roll of wallpaper covers ¼ of the wall. How many rolls of paper are needed to cover 4 walls?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

if 1/6 of a roll of paper covers 1/4 of a wall, this means that we will need 4/6 of a roll to cover a whole wall, now the question is asking how many rolls will we need to cover 4 walls, we already know that it takes 4/6 to fill one wall so if we add 4/6+4/6+4/6+4/6 we will get 16/6 or 2 4/6

we will need 16/6 or 2 4/6 of rolls of paper to cover 4 walls
