@radar @Isaiah.Feynman

OpenStudy (anonymous):

any ideas? @radar

OpenStudy (radar):

Well i worked out the two systems and they do have the same solution System A is (2,1) and System B (2, 1)

OpenStudy (radar):

So that leaves the first two options to consider.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its A :) am I right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"System B is obtained by adding the first equation of System A to 2 times the second equation of System A." :o

OpenStudy (radar):

No, its the other one, note that the coefficient of the ist equation in system B is not equal to first plus twice second in System A

OpenStudy (radar):

1 + 12 =13 not 19

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but if you timed it by 2 they would cancel out as 4x - 4x = 0 ?

OpenStudy (radar):

I was looking at the y coefficient.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohhh I get what you mean >.>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry >.<

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could you help me with 2 more please?

OpenStudy (radar):

I think it is B........but I want you to be sure it is :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Don't worry, I'll double check before I submit lol its 50 question >.>

OpenStudy (radar):

Look at B and substitute the x and y values in all three points and see if they come out to 4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They all equal 4 is it B

OpenStudy (radar):

check

OpenStudy (radar):

They satisfy that linear equation, good choice.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3x – 2y = 4 (0, –2), (2, 1), and (–2, –5) 3(0) -2(-2) = 4 4 = 4 3(2) -2(1) 6 -2 = 4 4 = 4 3(-2) -2(-5) -6 + 10 4 = 4 So I think its B :)

OpenStudy (radar):

You are thinking straight.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Huh?

OpenStudy (radar):

You are correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Greg made 4 chairs and 3 tables. Greg only has enough plywood to make at most 15 chairs or tables total. Let x represent the number of more chairs and y represent the number of more tables that Greg can make. Which of the following graphs best represents the relationship between x and y?

OpenStudy (radar):

Your graphs appear identical in both links.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (radar):

I like the middle one for the following reasons: 1. It takes the same amount of plywood to make a table or a chair. 2. He has already used enough plywood for 7 units, this means he has enough plywood remaining to make 8 more units. Don't you agree that the middle graph represents that he can make 8 chairs or 8 tables or different combinations that add up to 8.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea, that was my doubt :p

OpenStudy (radar):

If you locate points on that line they add up to 8, (0,8),, (8,0), (6,2), (2,6) etc.

OpenStudy (radar):

Good luck with these.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

>.> tis was my doubt lol, seemed easy.
