Part A.
You need two equations with the same slope and different y-intercepts.
Their graph is parallel lines. Since the lines do not intersect, there is no solution.
y = 2x + 2
y = 2x - 2
Part B.
We use the first equation as above. For the second equation, we use an equation with different slope. Two lines with different slopes always intersect.
y = 2x + 2
y = -2x - 2
In the second equation, y = -2x - 2. We now substitute -2x - 2 for y in the first equation.
-2x - 2 = 2x + 2
-4x = 4
x = -1
Now substitute -1 for x in the first equation to find y.
y = 2x + 2
y = 2(-1) + 2
y = -2 + 2
y = 0
Solution: x = -1 and y = 0
Answer:
D. Undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a vertical line so it has no slope.
Answer: (c - 3) / 2 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
If c represents the cookies, then you remove 3 because she ate 3 of the cookies. Since half of the remainder of the cookies were given to her friend, you must divide the product of c - 3, by 2. The reason for the parenthesis is so that it overrules PEMDAS, as parenthesis goes before division.
Answer:
y = 9.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both triangles are said to be similar, the proportion or ratio of the sides of both triangles would be equal.
Therefore, 39/y = 23/5.75 = 35/8.75
Let's find y
39/y = 23/5.75
==>Cross multiply
39*5.75 = 23*y
224.25 = 23y
==>Divide both sides by 23
224.25/23 = y
9.75 = y
y = 9.75
Check:
Thus,
39/9.75 = 23/5.75 = 35/8.75 = 4
Our answer y, which is 9.75, is correct.
Answer:
The correct answer is first option
u² - 11u + 24 = 0
When u = (x² - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
(x² - 1)² - (x² - 1) + 24 = 0
<u>To find the correct answer</u>
Substitute u = x² - 1
The equation becomes,
u² - 11u + 24 = 0 Where u = (x² - 1)
Therefore the correct answer is first option
u² - 11u + 24 = 0
When u = (x² - 1)
