Answer:

(x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation resolves to two:

2x -5 = 4

2x = 9 . . . . . . add 5

x = 9/2 = 4.5 . . . . divide by 2

and ...

2x -5 = -4

2x = 1 . . . . . . add 5

x = 1/2 = 0.5 . . . . divide by 2

Then the solution set is ...

(x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5} . . . . . . matches the first choice

For what value(s) of k is the linear system consistent? (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$6x_1-9x_2=8$

$9x_1+kx_2=-1$

The given system is $AX=B$ can be represented by

$\begin{bmatrix}6 &-9 \\ 9 & k\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x_1\\ x_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}8\\ -1\end{bmatrix}$

The given system is consistent when determinant of A is not equal to zero

$|A|$

$|A|=6k-(-81)=6k+81$

$k\neq \frac{-27}{2}$

i.e. system is consistent for all value of k except $k=\frac{-27}{2}$

$R-\frac{-27}{2}$
