What is the solution of the following system?

<h3>Answer:  B) no solutions</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

Let's isolate the variable y in the first equation

-2x - y = 1

-2x = 1 + y

1+y = -2x

y = -2x-1

Then we'll plug this into the second equation

-4x - 2y = -1

-4x - 2(-2x-1) = -1

-4x + 4x + 2 = -1

0x + 2 = -1

0 + 2 = -1

2 = -1

We run into a contradiction. No matter what x value we pick, the last equation will never be true. This leads to a domino effect to cause the first set of original equations to never be true when considered as a system.

Therefore, this system is inconsistent. There are no solutions. These two lines graph out parallel lines that never intersect.

Verizon [17]

35 pounds of black tea is needed to be mixed to get the final mixture for 2.10 per pound

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the amount of black tea worth 1.80 per pound to be mixed to get the final mixture for 2.10 per pound, hence:

2.4(35) + 1.8(x) = 2.1(x + 35)

x = 35 pounds

35 pounds of black tea is needed to be mixed to get the final mixture for 2.10 per pound

1. Girls = 12 plus twice the number of boys, so  C. y = 12 + 2x.

2. You have to see which point has the second value being greater than the first value:

 A) -1 > -2 is not true

 B) 0 > 1 is not true

 C) 2 > 3 is not true

 D) 8 > 4 is true, so it's D

3. Add the two values and see if it's less than 5

 A) -1-4 < 5 is true

 B) 0 + 4 < 5 is true

 C) 1 + 7 < 5 is not true, so this is the answer

 D) 2 + 2 < 5 is true

Please help me on this I’m super stuck
erastova [34]

Answer:

<u>BC = 3.1666</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you need to know that cosine∅ = adjacent/hypotenuse. We already know that hypotenuse = 5 and that ∅ = 70*. By substituting these in you will get cosine 70* = adjacent/5. Evaluate cosine 70* on the calculator and get 0.633... Multiply both sides by 5 and get adjacent is about equal to 3.1666. Because BC is the adjacent side of the triangle, this is the length of BC.
