Two lines have a slope of 3 and different y-intercepts how many solutions will this system have

Answer:

0 solutions / no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, it means that they are parallel.

For example, we have two lines:

y = x

y = x + 1

Both lines have the same slope of 1, but different y - intercepts. Because each equation increases the x and y at the same right (slope) but started at different points, the two equations will never touch.

It's similar to two runner who run at the same pace. If one runner started 50 meters ahead, that runner will always be ahead 50 meters (y-intercept) because they both run at the same rate.

Find the value of x so that the function has the given value.

For h(x) = -7x + 10, x =1

For r(x) = 4/5x+ 7 , x = -15

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the value of x on which the functions will have given values, we will put the functions equal to the given values

So,

h(x) = -7x + 10; h(x) = 3

$h(x) = -7x+10\\3 = -7x+10\\3-10 = -7x+10-10\\-7 = -7x$

Dividing both sides by -7

$\frac{-7x}{-7} = \frac{-7}{-7}\\x = 1$

r(x) = 4/5x+7; r(x) = -5

$r(x) = \frac{4}{5}x +7\\-5 = \frac{4}{5}x +7\\-5-7 = \frac{4}{5}x\\-12 = \frac{4}{5}x\\x = -12 * \frac{5}{4}\\x = -15$

Calculate the average rate of change for the function f(x)=x^4+3x^3-5x^2+2x-2, from x=-1 to x=1

borishaifa [10]

$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)= x^4+3x^3-5x^2+2x-2 \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=-1\\
x_2=1
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[1+3-5+2-2]~~-~~[1-3-5-2-2]}{1+1}\implies \cfrac{[-1]~~-~~[-11]}{2}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-1+11}{2}\implies \cfrac{10}{2}\implies 5$

How do you simplify 15/40

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest form of

15 /40 is 3 /8 .

Steps to simplifying fractions

Find the GCD (or HCF) of numerator and denominator

GCD of 15 and 40 is 5

Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD

15 ÷ 5

40 ÷ 5

Reduced fraction:

3 /8

Therefore, 15/40 simplified to lowest terms is 3/8.
