Answer:

  • C. y = x + 4, 2y = 2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The system has infinitely many solutions if the two equations are equivalent.

<u>We can analyze the given systems to see:</u>

A)

  • 2x + 7x + y = 6 ⇒ 9x + y = 6 ⇒ y = - 9x + 6
  • y = 9x + 6

Different slopes, there is one solution

B)

  • y = 5x + 7
  • y = 2x + 8

Different slopes, there is one solution

C)

  • y = x + 4
  • 2y = 2x + 8 ⇒ y = x + 4

Same lines, infinitely many solutions

D)

  • 7x - y = 10 ⇒ y = 7x - 10
  • y = 6x + 8

Different slopes, there is one solution

Solution:

When two equations are equivalent, it is infinitely many solutions because the two lines overlap each other.

<u>Option A - 2x + 7x + y = 6 and y = 9x + 6</u>

  • => (9x + y = 6) = (y = 9x + 6)
  • => (y = -9x + 6) ≠ (y = 9x + 6)

<u>Option B - y = 5x + 7 and y = 2x + 8</u>

  • => (y = 5x + 7) ≠ (y = 2x + 8)

<u>Option C - y = x + 4 and 2y = 2x + 8</u>

  • => (y = x + 4) = (2y = 2x + 8)
  • => (y = x + 4) = (y = 2x/2 + 8/2)
  • => (y = x + 4) = (y = x + 4)

<u>Option D - 7x - y = 10 and y = 6x + 8</u>

  • => (7x - y = 10) = (y = 6x + 8)
  • => (-y = -7x + 10) = (y = 6x + 8)
  • => (y = 7x - 10) ≠ (y = -6x - 8)

Hence, Option C is correct.

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle LMN by the AA Similarity Postulate. Also, m∠A = 129° and m∠C = 2(m∠M). What is m∠M?
Elza [17]
Again, this is a triangle so the sum of the angles must be 180°, so we can say:

a+b+c=180, we are told a=129, b=2c, we will let c=M°

129+2c+c=180 combine like terms on left side

129+3c=180 subtract 129 from both sides

3c=51 divide both sides by 3

c=17°

So angle M=17°

Think about it this way, that for every 5/6 pound bag you are losing 1/6 and 1/6*12=2 therefore the answer is 12
