There's some unknown (but derivable) system of equations being modeled by the two lines in the given graph. (But we don't care what equations make up these lines.)
There's no solution to this particular system because the two lines are parallel.
How do we know they're parallel? Parallel lines have the same slope, and we can easily calculate the slope of these lines.
The line on the left passes through the points (-1, 0) and (0, -2), so it has slope
(-2 - 0)/(0 - (-1)) = -2/1 = -2
The line on the right passes through (0, 2) and (1, 0), so its slope is
(0 - 2)/(1 - 0) = -2/1 = -2
The slopes are equal, so the lines are parallel.
Why does this mean there is no solution? Graphically, a solution to the system is represented by an intersection of the lines. Parallel lines never intersect, so there is no solution.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You don't need the Law of Cosines, the Law of sines if what you need. You can't use the Law of Cosines because in order to find side a, you would need the length of side c and you don't have it. Using the Law of Sines is appropriate, knowing that angle B = 55:
and solving for a:
so
a = 143.0
Answer:
b = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(k + a )(k + x) + 1 = k^2 + kx + ak + ax + 1
I think the way to solve this is to worry about the 36
k^s + 1 + ak should equal 36
We know that a = 2
k^2 + 1 + 2k = 36
k^2 + 2k + 1 - 36 = 0
k^2 + 2k - 35 = 0
(k + 7)(k - 5) = 0
k = -7 is the only acceptable answer. It is given that K < 0.
bx = kx + ax
b = k + a
b = - 7 + 2
b = - 5
We know that
1 cubic yards equals to--------------> 27 <span>cubic feet
then
</span><span>I apply a rule of three
if </span>1 cubic yards ------------------- 27 ft³
X----------------------------------> 648 ft³
X=648/27=24 cubic yards
the answer is 24 cubic yards
