Answer:

  factor out 5^19

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Reason from parity:

  both 5^20 and 5^19 are products with only odd numbers (5) as factors. Hence each is an odd number. The difference of odd numbers is always even.

__

b) Factor:

  5^20 -5^19 = 5^19(5 -1) = 5^19×4

This product has an even factor (4), so is even.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x + 2

6x – 2y = 10

Ryan’s answer:

I solved by adding the equations. The solution is .

y = 3x + 2 → 3x + y = 2

6x – 2y = 10 → 3x – y = 5

6x = 7

x =

6x – 2y = 10 → 6 – 2y = 10

7 – 2y = 10

–2y = –3

y = -

Jesse’s answer:

I used matrices. The solution is .

Mark’s answer:

I graphed the equations. The lines are parallel and do not intersect, so there is no solution.
