6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for this is 3x + 5x + 4x = 600 where x is the same amount of money multiplied by the scalar value to ensure the money is divided in that ratio exactly. That gives us 12x = 600.

x = 50.

The largest value is 5(50) = 250 and

the smallest value is 3(50) = 150.

The difference between these is $100.

One equation in a system of linear equations is y=2x+1

Rufina [12.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

y = 2x + 1

a. write a second equation so that (1,3) is the only solution of the system

To have only one solution the equation must have a different slope.

Let it be 10, then the y-intercept of y = 10x + b is:

3 = 1*10 + b ⇒ b = -7

And the equation:

y = 10x - 7

b. Write a second equation so that the system has infinitely many solutions

To have infinitely many solutions, both equations must be same:

y = 2x + 1

c. Write a second equation so that the system has no solutions.

To have no solutions, the equations must have same slope but different y-intercepts:

y = 2x + 5
