Infinite number of solutions...means it will be the same line.
you have probably heard about equivalent fractions like 1/2 = 2/4...and if u reduce 2/4, it equals 1/2. Well...there are also equivalent equations. They can also be reduced.
3y = 2x - 9 cant be reduced, but u can make an equivalent equation by multiplying it all by a number.Any number.
lets try 2...
2(3y = 2x - 9) =
6y = 4x - 18...this is an equivalent equation....the same line..infinite solutions.Notice that u can reduce it by dividing everything by 2 which would equal 3y = 2x - 9....so u see, it is like equivalent fractions....kind of...lol
or multiply it by 3
3(3y = 2x - 9) =
9y = 6x - 27....this is also equivalent.....so this is an answer as well
and u can multiply it by 4 and get another equivalent equation..or 5, or 6....and so on...
make any sense ?? Just remember, to get the result of infinite solutions, the equations have to be equivalent
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The most general form of this, without seeing any of the options, would be:
Again, there might have been a value outside the parenthesis that may or may not have been negative, but either way, this is the most basic translation of the parabola.
If the 3 points are collinear, then the slopes of all line segments connecting the points are the same.
Thus,
-6 - (-8) 2
m = ------------- = -------- = -1/2
-7 - (-3) -4
Then the following must be true:
4-(-6) 10
-1/2 = ------------ = ---------
c - (-7) c + 7
Cross multiplying, -(c+7) = 20, and c+7 = -20, so that c = -27
