Answer:

(I can not see the options, so I will answer in a general way)

When we have a system of linear equations:

y = a*x + b

y = c*x + d

We have 3 possible options:

One solution: This happens when the lines intersect only one time, and the solution of the system is the point where the lines intersect.

No solutions: This happens when the lines do not intersect, is the case for parallel lines (lines with the same slope but different y-intercept)

Infinite solutions: This happens when the lines do intersect at infinite points, is the case for two equal lines (so both equations represent the same line)

Now we have the system:

y = m*x  + b

y = -2*x + A

We want to find values of m and b, such that this system has no solutions.

Then we know that the lines must be parallel, again, the lines must have the same slope but different y-intercept.

Then we can use:

m = -2, b = A + 1

we will get:

y = -2*x + (A + 1)

y = -2*x + A

This system has no solutions.

Other pair can be:

m = -2, b = A + 3

we will get

y = -2*x + (A + 3)

y = -2*x + A

This system has no solutions.

How do you find the slope of ordered pairs
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

the slope is defined as the change in price divided by the change in quantity supplied between two points (i.e. the two ordered pairs). we can use the following formula to calculate it: m = (y2 – y1)/(x2 – x1). in the case of my example, the two ordered pairs are (2, 500) and (1, 250)

HELP PLEASE <br><br> how do i put this into a piecewise function?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 functions start by making a domain

Function 1: -3≤x<1

Function 2: -1≤x≤1

Now come up with equations

Function 1= x+3

Function 2= 5

Now put it all together

f(x)= x+3 for -3≤x<1 and 5 for -1≤x≤1
