Answer:
I'd say you need to be more specific.
Step-by-step explanation:
"Different" doesn't tell you much.
Consider the equations ...
These equations are "different", but they are <em>dependent</em>.
_____
I'd mentally (or actually) put the equations in the same form and compare the coefficients of x and y. If they have different ratios, the system is independent and consistent.
If they have the same ratio, the system will not have a single solution. Whether there is no solution or an infinite number of solutions depends on the constant, which I would examine next.
The system above can be put in the form
In both cases, the ratio of the x coefficient to the y coefficient is 2/-1 = 4/-2 = -2. This means the lines are at least parallel, if not identical. The numbers in the second equation are all 2 times the numbers in the first equation, so the equations are <em>dependent</em>, and there are an infinite number of solutions. (Both describe the same line.)
If the second equation were 4x -2y = 1, then the two equations would be describing parallel lines, so they would be called <em>inconsistent</em>.
Answer:
RT = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Point S is on line segment
R------------S------------T
RS + ST = RT
Given
ST=3x-8
RT=4x
RS=4x-7,
Step 1
We find x
4x - 7 + 3x - 8 = 4x
4x + 3x -7 - 8 = 4x
7x - 15 = 4x
7x - 4x = 15
3x = 15
x = 15/3
x = 5
Step 2
We find RT
RT = 4x
x = 5
RT = 4 × 5
RT = 20
The numerical length of RT is 20

Answer:
45.45
Step-by-step explanation:
25 is 55% of What Number? - 25 is 55% of 45.45. 100% of 45.45 is 45.45, therefore 55 percent of 45.45 equals 25.
