Solve each equation. Record your work and check your solution. <br> a. 5(x-2)+(-9)= -7(1-x)
Daniel [21]

The solution for equation is x = -6

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given equation is:</u></em>

5(x-2) + (-9) = -7(1-x)

We have to solve the equation

According to Bodmas rule, if an expression contains brackets ((), {}, []) we have to first solve or simplify the bracket followed by of (powers and roots etc.), then division, multiplication, addition and subtraction from left to right

Therefore, solve for brackets in given equation

5(x-2) + (-9) = -7(1-x)\\\\5x - 10 -9 = -7 + 7x

Solve for terms in left hand side of equation

5x - 19 = -7+7x

Move the variables to one side and constants to other side

7x -5x = -19+7\\\\2x = -12\\\\Divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x = -6

Thus the solution for equation is x = -6

Which value of m will create a system of parallel lines with no solution? y=mx-6 8x-4y=12 A coordinate grid with one line labele
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

A system of parallel lines will be created where the two lines will never meet and have no common solution at a value of m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the given line is 8·x - 4·y = 12

Which gives;

8·x- 12= 4·y

y = 2·x - 3

Given that the line passes through the points (0, -3) and (1, -1), we have;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

When (x₁, y₁) = (0. -3) and (x₂, y₂) = (1, -1), we have;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{(-1)-(-3)}{1-(0)} = 2

y - (-3) = 2×(x - 0)

y = 2·x - 3 which is the equation of the given line

For the lines 8·x - 4·y = 12, which is the sane as y = 2·x - 3 and the line y = m·x  - 6 to have no solution, the slope of the two lines should be equal that is m = 2

Given that the line passes through the point (1.5, 0), we have;

y - 0 = 2×(x - 1.5)  

y = 2·x - 3...................(1)

For the equation, y = m·x  - 6, when m = 2, we have;

y = 2·x  - 6..................(2)

Solving equations (1) and (2) gives;

2·x - 3 = 2·x  - 6, which gives;

2·x - 2·x=  - 3 - 6

0 = 9

Therefore, a system of parallel lines will be created where the two lines will never meet and have no common solution at a value of m = 2.
