Answer:
(d) y = -5/2x -3
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the offered choices are in slope-intercept form, so it makes sense to put the given equation in that form. Solving for y, we get ...
5x +2y = -4
2y = -5x -4 . . . . . subtract 5x
y = -5/2x -2 . . . . . divide by 2
The system of equations will have <em>no solution</em> if the equations are "inconsistent." That will be the case when the slope is the same, but the y-intercepts are different. That means you're looking for an answer of the form ...
y = -5/2x +c . . . . . . where c is not -2
This matches the last choice:
y = -5/2x -3
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The discriminant of the quadratic equation is -7.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following quadratic equation in the question:
Comparing to general quadratic equation:
We have to find the discriminant of the quadratic equation.
Formula:
Putting values, we get,
Thus, the discriminant of the quadratic equation is -7.
Let the larger number be w and the smaller number be k;
5w-11=3k
3k+16=4w
Reorganizing the equations;
5w-3k=11
4w-3k=16
Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1:
w=-5
Replacing value of w in equation 1;
5(-5)-11=3k
-25-11=3k
3k=-36
k=-12
The numbers are -5 and -12
