Answer:
no solution (parallel lines)
Step-by-step explanation:
You observe that the coefficient in the second equation are all multiples of 3. Dividing that equation by -3 gives the two equations ...
The slopes are the same (2) and the intercepts are different (-11, 5), so the lines are parallel. There is no solution.
7-2=5
17-16=1
You are trying to find the difference that equals 3 and is near those range of numbers.
The numbers are 11 and 14.
Answer:
y = -3x-1 or 3x + y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
6x + 3y - 11 = 0 can be written as y = -3x + (11/3)
In parallel lines the slope remains the same but the constant changes. To find the constant you place in the cordinates for x and y.
5 = -3(-2) + b
5 = 6 + b
5 - 6 = b
-1 = b
Now you replace (11/3) by the new b, -1
y = -3x - 1
The product is less than either of the factors. Multiplying a number < 1 with 2/3 another number < 1, will give a fraction of a fraction, and part of a fraction is an even smaller fraction. Another way of looking at it: Fractions less than one have numerators smaller than their denominators. When multiplying fractions, you multiply across, so multiplying two fractions that are both less than one will always give a numerator much smaller than the denominator, and a larger denominator makes for a smaller number. I hope this helps, but if you have questions, ask.
