I need to see the diagram in order to answer your question.
Answer:
E) 6
Step-by-step explanation:
a/b = 6
36/b = 6
6b = 36
b = 36/6 = 6
b/x = 36
6/x = 36
36x = 6
x = 6/36 = 1/6
hence 1/x = 6
Answer:
Adults = x
Students = y = x + 40. 40 more student than adult
Adult = $8, Student = $6
Total for Adults = 8*x = 8x
Total for students = 6*y = 6y
Total = $1920
8x + 6y = 1920
Hence system of equations are:
y = x + 40
8x + 6y = 1920
If you simplified a two-equation system and all variables were eliminated, two outcomes are possible.
If the final equation is a true equation, like 3=3, then the system has an <em>infinite number of solutions </em> (the equations graph the same line, and all points appear on both graphs)
If the final solution is a mathematically false equation, like 0=-8, the system has no solution. The lines are parallel and never intersect (have a solution)
