Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
5+8+6+5+10+7+1=42
42/7=6
The value of x is 5/8.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Given,
- The lines PQ and RS are parallel to each other.
- slope of PQ= x-1/4
- slope of RS = 3/8
The slopes of parallel lines are equal.
slope of PQ = slope of RS
⇒ x-1/4 = 3/8
⇒ (4x-1)/4 = 3/8
⇒ 8(4x-1) = 4(3)
⇒ 32x-8 = 12
⇒ 32x = 20
x = 20/32
x = 5/8
Subsitution
solve for y in first equation
add 2x to both sides
y=2x+8
sub 2x+8 for y in second equation
16+4x=2(2x+8)
divide both sides by 2
8+2x=2x+8
true
there are infinite solutions for x
therefor infinite soltions for y
there are an infinite number of solutions
