(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:
∠ ABC = 22°
Step-by-step explanation:
OA = OB ( radii of circle )
Then Δ OAB is isosceles with base angles congruent , that is
∠ OBA = ∠ OAB = 17x
The sum of the 3 angles in the triangle sum to 180°
17x + 17x + 11x = 180
45x = 180 ( divide both sides by 45 )
x = 4
Then
∠ OBA = 17x = 17(4) = 68°
BC is a tangent so ∠ OBC = 90°
∠ ABC = 90° - ∠ OBA = 90° - 68° = 22°
Answer:
the answer is 9
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19
