Answer: x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
7/8 + 7/12 = 35/24 = 1 11/24
For the first system, we have
1 - 3x + 3y = -8
or
-3x + 3y = -9
The second equation, however, tells us
-3x + 3y = 13
but -9 ≠ 13, so this system has no solution.
For the second system, notice that multiplying both sides of
4x - 8y = 6
by 1/2 gives
2x - 4y = 3
which is identical to the other equation in the system. Then all point (x, y) that lie on this line are solutions to the system, meaning there are infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line goes down 1 grid square for each grid square to the right. Each grid square represents 1 unit in both the x- and y-directions. That means the slope is ...
m = rise/run = -1/1 = -1
The slope of the line is -1.
