The graph of the following system of equations is 2x + y = 6 6x + 3y = 18 Overlapping lines Parallel lines Intersecting lines
Think this is same line
or overlapping lines if you multiply the first equation by three
overlapping :D
correction parallel lines
You think it's parallel lines @JAMG
yes
2x + y = 6 y = -2x + 6 6x + 3y = 18 3y = -6x + 18 y = -6/3 + 6 y = -2x + 6 same slope...parallel lines
oh sorry i thought it was parallel has no solutions :( oops
Johnston High School has a total of 82 boys and girls who play sports. If the number of boys is 16 more than twice the number of girls, how many boys play sports at this high school? 22 42 51 60
can you clarify this one kellie i think its 22 boys
22*2 +16 + 22 = 82 44+16+22=82 60+22=82
its 60 then right @JAMG
22 is correct I just showed you that it makes sense from the problem
and yes there are 60 boys
oh ok thanks :)
b + g = 82 b = 2g + 16 2g + 16 + g = 82 3g = 82 - 16 3g = 66 g = 22 b + g = 82 b + 22 = 82 b = 82 - 22 b = 60 check.. b = 2g + 16 60 = 2(22) + 16 60 = 44 + 16 60 = 60 (correct) there are 60 boys and 22 girls
sorry, im not at my best right now :(
don't worry about it...if I had $1 for every mistake I made, I would be rich
loll, thanks @JAMG and @kelliegirl33 also no worries jamg :)
glad to help :)
