Answer:
a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
-16 = -5a - 21 (Given)
5 = -5a (Added 21 on both sides)
-1 = a (Divided -5 on both sides)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
n + q = 20
.05n + .25q = 3.00
5n + 25q = 300
n + q = 20
5n + 25q = 300
-5n - 5q = -100
20q = 200
q = 10 quarters
n + 10 = 20
n = 10 nickels
(10 nickels, 10 quarters)
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
A difference of squares factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)
Given the factor (- 5x + 3) of a difference of squares product.
Then the other factor is (- 5x + 3)
(a) Answer: One solution.
Explanation: two lines that have same slope with opposite sign will necessarily cross each other at a single point, as one is "pointing uphill" and the other "downhill."
(b) Answer: Infinitely many solutions.
Explanation:
2x + 3y = 5.5
4x + 6y = 11 | divide by 2
-->
2x + 3y = 5.5
2x + 3y = 5.5
--> equations are identical.
2x + 3y = 2x + 3y
so any (x,y) will satisfy this equation. This means infinitely many solutions.
(c) Answer: One solution
Explanation:
Continuing the two lines it becomes obvious they will cross at one point (the solution)
(d) Answer: No solution
Explanation: If the two lines are parallel, they will never cross (by definition of "parallel"). Therefore there will be no solution to the corresponding linear system.
Answer:
See explaination
Step-by-step explanation:
We can define standard deviation in statistics as a measure of the amount of variation or dispersion of a set of values. A low standard deviation indicates that the values tend to be close to the mean of the set, while a high standard deviation indicates that the values are spread out over a wider range.
