Answer:

<h2>12 computers = 24 students</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>3 computers = 6 students</h2><h2>X computers = 24 students</h2><h2>cross multiply</h2><h2>6x = 3 × 24</h2><h2>6x = 72</h2><h2>divide both sides by 6</h2><h2>X = 12</h2>

If y=5x - 2 were changed to y=3/4 x- 2, how would the graph of the new function compare with the first one?

Andre45 [30]

Hi there! The answer is B. it would be less steep.

The change of the function (in this case) influences the slope of the line. Since we've modified the slope from 5 to 3 / 4, the line will be less steep.

Solve the simultaneous equation y-2x+1=0 and 4x^2+3y^2-2xy=7

Lapatulllka [165]

The first equation is $y-2x+1=0$

$y=2x-1$ (Equation 1)

The second equation is $4x^{2}+3y^{2}-2xy=7$ (Equation 2)

Putting the value of x from equation 1 in equation 2.

we get,

$4x^{2}+3(2x-1)^{2}-2x(2x-1)=7$

$4x^{2}+3(4x^{2}+1-4x)-4x^{2}+2x=7$

by simplifying the given equation,

$12x^{2}-10x-4=0$

$6x^{2}-5x-2=0$

Using discriminant formula,

$D=b^{2}-4ac$

$D=25-4 \times 6 \times -2 = 73$

Now the formula for solution 'x' of quadratic equation is given by:

$x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{D}}{2a} and x=\frac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{5+\sqrt{73}}{12} and x=\frac{5-\sqrt{73}}{12}$

Hence, these are the required solutions.

How many solutions does the equation - 8x + 5 = - 8x + 4 have

KiRa [710]

$- 8x + 5 = - 8x + 4 \\ - 8x = - 8x + 4 - 5 \\ - 8x = - 8x - 1 \\ 0 = - 1(false)$

we don't have solutions !!
