(a) Answer: One solution.
Explanation: two lines that have same slope with opposite sign will necessarily cross each other at a single point, as one is "pointing uphill" and the other "downhill."
(b) Answer: Infinitely many solutions.
Explanation:
2x + 3y = 5.5
4x + 6y = 11 | divide by 2
-->
2x + 3y = 5.5
2x + 3y = 5.5
--> equations are identical.
2x + 3y = 2x + 3y
so any (x,y) will satisfy this equation. This means infinitely many solutions.
(c) Answer: One solution
Explanation:
Continuing the two lines it becomes obvious they will cross at one point (the solution)
(d) Answer: No solution
Explanation: If the two lines are parallel, they will never cross (by definition of "parallel"). Therefore there will be no solution to the corresponding linear system.

Answer:
He invested $1200 and had a balance of $1260 after 3 years.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem One (left panel)
<em><u>Question A</u></em>
- The y intercept happens when x = 0
- That being said, the y intercept is 50. It was moving when the timing began.
<em><u>Question B</u></em>
The rate of change = (56 - 52)/(3 - 1) = 4/2 = 2 miles / hour^2 (you have a slight acceleration.
<em><u>Question C</u></em>
- 60 = a + (n-1)d
- 60 = 50 + (n - 1)*2
- 10/2 = (n - 1)*2/2
- 5 = n - 1
- 6 = n
The way I have done it the domain is n from 1 to 6
Question 2 (Right Panel)
<em><u>Question A</u></em>
The equation for the table is f(x) = 3x - 3 which was derived simply by putting all three points into y = ax + b and solving.
- f(0) = ax + b
- -3 = a*0) + b
- b = - 3
- So far what you have is
- f(x) = ax - 3
- f(-1) = a*(-1) - 3 but we know (f(-1)) = -6
- - 6 = a(-1) - 3 add 3 to both sides
- -6 +3 = a(-1) -3 + 3
- -3 = a*(-1) Divide by - 1
- a = 3
- f(x) = 3x - 3 Answer for f(x)
- The slope of f(x) = the coefficient in front of the x
- f(x) has a slope of 3
- g(x) has a slope of 4
<em><u>Part B</u></em>
- f(x) has a y intercept of - 3
- g(x) has a y intercept of -5
- f(x) has the greater y intercept.
- -3 > - 5
Answer: The Inverse variation
Step-by-step explanation:
The phrase “ y varies inversely as x” or “ y is inversely proportional to x” means that as x gets bigger, y gets smaller, or vice versa. This concept is translated in two ways. yx = k for some constant k, called the constant of proportionality.
