If you are cooking or in a lab and you are using measurements and you need to cut the recipe or compounds in half or double it you need to know how to do so
b must be equal to -6 for infinitely many solutions for system of equations
and 
<u>Solution:
</u>
Need to calculate value of b so that given system of equations have an infinite number of solutions

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

Now we have two equations

Let us first see what is requirement for system of equations have an infinite number of solutions
If
and
are two equation
then the given system of equation has no infinitely many solutions.
In our case,

As for infinitely many solutions 

Hence b must be equal to -6 for infinitely many solutions for system of equations
and
Answer: 17,094 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
5280 ft. in 1 mile
5280 x 3= 15,840
15,840+1,254= 17,094 ft.
B. 6 3/8
How do we get this? Simple:
6.375--->We already know that 6 will be the whole number in the mixed fraction.
We then move on to represent the decimal part as the fraction. 375 will be the numerator. The denominator depends on how many decimal places we have (3 in this case, since there are 3 numbers after the period--375). Each decimal place represents a 10 (or a 0 after the 1). So we get that our denominator will be a 1000.
We get the following fraction
6 375/1000
We simplify. Let's start by dividing numerator and denominator by 5:
6 75/200
Let's divide by 5 again:
6 15/40
Let's divide by 5 again:
6 3/8
Or we could have divide by 125 from the get go and get the same results.
