2 Answers:

  • B)  The lines are parallel
  • C)  The lines have the same slope.

Parallel lines always have equal slope, but different y intercepts.

==========================================================

Explanation:

Let's solve the second equation for y

3y - x = -7

3y = -7+x

3y = x-7

y = (x-7)/3

y = x/3 - 7/3

y = (1/3)x - 7/3

The equation is in y = mx+b form with m = 1/3 as the slope and b = -7/3 as the y intercept. We see that the first equation, where y was already isolated, also has a slope of m = 1/3. The two equations of this system have the same slope. Choice C is one of the answers.

However, they don't have the same y intercept. The first equation has y intercept b = -4, while the second has b = -7/3. This means that they do not represent the same line. They need to have identical slopes, and identical y intercepts (though the slope can be different from the y intercept of course) in order to have identical lines. So we can rule out choice D and E because of this.

Because the two equations have the same slope, but different y intercepts, this means the lines are parallel. Choice B is the other answer.

Parallel lines never touch or intersect, which in turn means there is no solution point. A solution point is where the lines cross. We can rule out choice A.

I recommend using your graphing calculator, Desmos, GeoGebra, or any graphing tool (on your computer or online) to graph each equation given. You should see two parallel lines forming. I used GeoGebra to make the graph shown below.

from x15 to x 25 is 4 - -16 = -20 degree change

25 -15 = 10000 feet

-20/10 = -2 degrees every 1000 feet

Shawna took a test that had a total of 20 items. She got 4/5 of the items correct. How many items did she get correct?
ehidna [41]

Shawna got 16 items correct

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of answers or part of total answers we multiply the fraction with the total number of items.

Given

Total items on test = 20

Correct items fraction = 4/5

Then,

Correct\ items=\total\ items * \fraction\ of\ correct\ answers\\= 20 * \frac{4}{5}\\=\frac{80}{5}\\=16

Shawna got 16 items correct

Help picture below problem 13
kirza4 [7]

The Pythagorean theorem is the idea that the sum of the two legs which are both squared is equal to the hypotenuse's length squared.

     *<em>look at the image I attached for a better explanation</em>

By looking at the picture, we are missing the leg's length, and by using the Pythagorean theorem, we get the equation

    ?^2+5^2 = 13^2\\?^2 + 25 = 169\\?^2 = 144\\? = 12

Thus the <u>missing side length is 12 cm</u>

Hope that helps!
