If two lines in a system of linear equations have the same slope and same y-intercept, how many solutions will the system have?

arsen [322]

Answer:

We will have infinite solutions to the system of linear equations.

Explanation:

Well, when we have two lines with the same slopes and the same y-interception, both of them are overlapped, so we will have infinite solutions to the system of linear equations.

This kind of system is called dependent system.

I hope it helps you!

How can i prove the conservation of mechanical energy?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

We can also prove the conservation of mechanical energy of a freely falling body by the work-energy theorem, which states that change in kinetic energy of a body is equal to work done on it. i.e. W=ΔK. And ΔE=ΔK+ΔU. Hence the mechanical energy of the body is conserved

If your speedometer has an uncertainty of 2.5 km/h at a speed of 92 km/h, what is the percent uncertainty

Elis [28]

Answer:

2.7%

Explanation:

Given:

Uncertainty of the speedometer (u)= 2.5km/h

Speed measured at that uncertainty (v) = 92km/h

Percent uncertainty (p) is given as the ratio of the uncertainty to the speed measured then multiplied by 100%. i.e

p = $\frac{u}{v} * 100$ %

p = $\frac{2.5}{92} * 100$ %

p = 2.7%

Therefore, the percent uncertainty is 2.7%

What does a black asphalt road become hotter than a white cement sidewalk in the same amount of sunlight?

victus00 [196]

The black means that it is a great emitter/absorber of the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic radiation is reflected of the white and absorbed nurture black meaning that the temperature of the black tarmac increases to that greater the the white

A rock is thrown vertically upward from some height above the ground. It rises to some maximum height and falls back to the grou

True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.
