Answer: It is only the 3rd equation that is a good example to Jeremy's argument. Others are counter examples to Jeremy's argument.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider the general linear equation
Y = MX + C
On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (0, negative 1) and (2, 0).
Slope = ( 0 - -1)/( 2- 0) = 1/2
When x = 0, Y = -1
Substitutes both into general linear equation
-1 = 1/2(0) + C
C = -1
The equations for the coordinate is therefore
Y = 1/2X - 1
Let's check the equations one after the other
y = negative one-half x minus 1
Y = -1/2X - 1
y = negative one-half x + 1
Y = -1/2X + 1
y = one-half x minus 1
Y = 1/2X - 1
y = one-half x + 1
Y = 1/2X + 1
It is only the 3rd equation that is a good example to Jeremy's argument. Others are counter examples to Jeremy's argument.
Yes, because you can simplify it to .2 which can be written as a fraction. Irrational numbers are those ones that keep going with an infinite string of numbers past the decimal.
3-----4
3-----4
3-----4
Total (Left): 9
Total (Right): 12
-------------------
Total (Left) + Total (Right) = 9 + 12 = 21
This is infinity solutions -
33x-33+99=33x-33-99
99=-99
Since 99 __equal -99 the equation has many solutions
