Answer:
(4,2). DEPENDENT
Step-by-step explanation:
As each equation consist on two variable, both can be represented graphically on a cartesian plane. First, each expression is rewritten in explicit form:
(red line) and 
(blue line)
By the resource of graphing software, the solution is (4,2). The representation is presented below as attachment. As solution exists, both expression are linearly DEPENDENT.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem. 
a and b are the two side lengths
c is the hypotenuse (value across from the right angle)
Plug in the values that you are given.
Solve for x
x=
If the recipe makes enough stew for 6 people, and the ingredients cost $9.75, then for 24 people it will cost $x. You can write this statement as
6 people - $9.75,
24 people - $x.
Or as proportion,
Find x:
Answer: It would cost $39 to serve 24 people
It reveals the slope and a single point on the line
4. Let the numbers be x - 2, x, and x + 2, where x is an odd number.
2(x² - 4) - 4x = (x + 2)² + 21
2x² - 8 - 4x = x² + 4x + 4 + 21
2x² - 4x - 8 = x² + 4x + 25
x² - 8x - 33 = 0
(x - 11)(x + 3) = 0
x = 11, or -3
When x = 11, x - 2 = 9, x + 2 = 13
When x = -3, x - 2 = -5, x + 2 = -1
Explanation: You are on the right track. However, rather than having three unknown variables, try to reduce your working out to one unknown variable. Since you know they are consecutive odd numbers, you can simply let x be the middle term and the other two be + and - 2, provided x is an odd number.
That will reduce your variable issues, and helps as the first and third provide a difference of two squares, and this works out very nicely.
Q5: is essentially the same process. Let your variables be something in the form of one unknown variable, and you should be okay from there. Let me know if you're stuck.
