The x-value of the intersection point of the lines is ( d - b)/(a-c)

<h3>Intersection of lines</h3>

Given the equation of a line expressed as;

y = ax +b and;

y = cx + d.

Equating both lines, we will have:

  • ax + b = cx + d

Make x the subject of the formula:

ax - cx = d = b

x (a-c) = d - b

x = ( d - b)/(a-c)

Hence the x-value of the intersection point of the lines is ( d - b)/(a-c)

Which system of inequalities does the graph represent? Which test point satisfies both of the inequalities in that system?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

1) The inequality for the given system are

y ≥ 4x - 4

y ≥ x - 1.5

2)  The test point (0,0)  satisfies both of the inequalities in the system represented by the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A graph showing  a system of inequalities.

We have to find the system of inequality.

For line 1)

The points that cut the x and y axis are (1,0) and (0,-4)

Thus, we can find the equation of line using two given point.

Since the general equation of line is y = mx + c

Where m is slope and c is y intercept

Slope is find as m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute, we get,

m=\frac{-4-0}{0-1}=4

Slope is 4.

Thus, equation becomes y = 4x + c

For c put (0,-4)  in the above equation , we have,

-4 = 4(0) + c ⇒ c = -4

Thus, equation becomes y = 4x - 4

For inequality take a test point (0,0) and we check for which inequality it satisfies the graph region

For (0,0)

y = 4x - 4 becomes 0 = - 4  is satisfied when 0 > -4

thus, the inequality becomes y ≥ 4x - 4

Since, the line is a solid so it will take up equality sign too.

For line 2)

The points that cut the x and y axis are (1.5,0) and (0,-1.5)

Thus, we can find the equation of line using two given point.

Since the general equation of line is y = mx + c

Where m is slope and c is y intercept

Slope is find as m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute, we get,

m=\frac{-1.5-0}{0-1.5}=1

Slope is 1.

Thus, equation becomes y = x + c

For c put (0,-1.5)  in the above equation , we have,

-1.5 = (0) + c ⇒ c = - 1.5

Thus, equation becomes y = x - 1.5

For inequality take a test point (0,0) and we check for which inequality it satisfies the graph region

For (0,0)

y = x - 1.5 becomes 0 = -1.5  is satisfied when 0 > - 1.5

thus, the inequality becomes y ≥ x - 1.5

Since, the line is a solid so it will take up equality sign too.

Thus, the inequality for the given system are

y ≥ 4x - 4

y ≥ x - 1.5

Also,  The test point (0,0)  satisfies both of the inequalities in the system represented by the graph.

This graph shows a portion of an odd function.
nexus9112 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • -2
  • -1
  • -2
  • -3

Step-by-step explanation:

An odd function is symmetrical about the origin:

  f(-x) = -f(x)

So, ...

  f(-2) = -f(2) = -2

  f(-3) = -f(3) = -1

  f(-4) = -f(4) = -2

  f(-6) = -f(6) = -3

Total of 6 pies. Two lemon meringue pies cost $3 less than four blueberry pies. Three lemon meringue pies cost #9 more than thre
ioda

Answer:

L Pie - $7.50

B Pie - $4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create equations with the given things:

1.  Two lemon meringue pies cost $3 less than four blueberry pies.

2L - $3 = 4B

2. Three lemon meringue pies cost #9 more than three blueberry pies.

3L = $9+3B

3. Let's solve these 2 equations

1. -3(-4B+2L=-3)

2. 2(-3B+3L=9)

3. Adding these 2 equations:  

12B-6L = 9 ----(1)

-6B+6L= 18 ----(2)

(1) + (2) => 6B=27

B=$4.50

4. 2L = 4(4.50) - 3

L= $7.50

----------------
