Answer: B) Infinitely many solutions; both equations are equivalent

==============================================================

Work Shown:

x+y = 4 ... start with the first equation

x + (-x+4) = 4 ... replace y with (-x+4)

x-x+4 = 4

0x+4 = 4

0+4 = 4

4 = 4 ... this is a true statement regardless of what x you pick

So there are infinitely many solutions. Each solution (x,y) is of the form (x,-x+4). All solutions fall on the line y = -x+4 which is equivalent to x+y = 4. Note how we add x to both sides.

Or you could start with x+y = 4 and subtract x from both sides to get y = -x+4. Either way, we're dealing with the same equation which is why they both graph out the same line.

Jackson is starting an exercise program. The first day he will spend 30 minutes on the treadmill. He will increase his time on t
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • time spent on the thread mill as a function of d(day) = t(d)

= 30 +2(d-1) minutes

[where d represents day number]

(when d is 1 the time spent should be 30

so substitute d=1 and check it will be 30 only.

on first day he will spend 30 minutes so, I added 30 .

and on every additional day( these additional days are excluding first day), he will increase the time by 2 minutes.so, I added 2(d-1) to initial 30 minutes)

  • so, T(6), the minutes he will spend on the treadmill on day 6=

=30+2(6-1)

=30+2(5)

=30+10

=40 minutes
