No solution
y=3x-3
-6x+2y= -4
-6x+2(3x-3)= -4
-6x+6x-6= -4
Cancel -6x+6x, since it equals 0, you are left with -6= -4. No solution.

What is the answer to this?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simplify the equations and the left side is identical to the right side, then there are an infinite number of solutions: the equation is true for all values of x.

Another way to simplify the equation is to subtract the right side from both sides. If that simplifies to 0 = 0, then there are an infinite number of solutions.

2x -6 -6x = 2 -4x . . . . eliminate parentheses

-4x -6 = -4x +2 . . . . no solutions (no value of x makes this true)

x +2 = 15x +10 +2x . . . . eliminate parentheses

x +2 = 17x +10 . . . . one solution (x=-1/2)

4 +6x = 6x +4 . . . . eliminate parentheses

6x +4 = 6x +4 . . . . infinite solutions

6x +24 = 2x -4 . . . . eliminate parentheses; one solution (x=-7)

Find n. Perimeter = 86 in.

FromTheMoon [43]

Let the length of rectangle be L and the width of rectangle be W.
Since length exceeds the width by 25 inches, length will be
L = W + 25

Now the perimeter, P, is given by
P = 2(L + W)
Substituting L = W + 25 in the above equation,
P = 2(W + 25 + W)
P = 2(2W + 25)
P = 4W + 50
But P = 86 inches
P = 4W + 50 = 86
4W = 86 - 50 = 36
W = 36/4 = 9

Hence, width W = 9 inches.
Length L = W + 25 = 9 + 25 = 34 inches.

Mrs. Del Pup bought 20 yards of border for her classroom bulletin board.

A rectangle with dimensions $x$ and $y$ has perimeter 20 if

$2(x+y)=20 \iff x+y=10$

and we can deduce

$y=10-x$

So, the dimensions of the rectangle must be $x$ and $10-x$ , where x ranges from 0 to 10 (both extremes are excluded, otherwise you'd have a degenerate rectangle, which is actually a segment).

So, all the possible areas are given by the product of the dimensions, i.e.

$x(10-x) = -x^2+10x$

The function $f(x)=-x^2+10x$ represents a parabola, facing downwards, and thus it admits a maximum, which is its vertex.

In particular, the vertex of this parabola is given by

$x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-10}{-2}=5$

And it yields an area of

$f(5)=-25+50=25$

(a) So, she can frame a maximum area of 25 squared yards.

(b)The dimensions of the rectangle with greatest area are $x=5$ and $y=10-x=10-5=5$ , so it's actually a square.

This is a well known theorem: if you fix the perimeter, the rectangle with the largest area is the square yielding that perimeter.

(c) If we increase both dimensions by 2 yards, our 5x5 square would become a 7x7 square...

(d) ...and the new area would be $7^2=49$ squared yards. So, the new area is $49-25=26$ squared yeards more than the old one.
