will GIVE MEDAL IF HELP!!!!!!!!

For the graph shown, select the statement that best represents the given system of equations.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2y – x = 2 x – 2y = 8 A. inconsistent B. not enough information C. coincident D. consistent and independent

@shortycme

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For this you need to know the definition of inconsistent and consistent systems. Consistent systems have at least one solution, inconsistent systems have no solutions. A solution is when two lines intersect. These lines in the question are parallel and therefore have no intersections. So the system would be considered....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well idk never heard of these wrods before

OpenStudy (anonymous):

words

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do parallel lines ever cross?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And so, there is no solution to the system since they don't cross, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right!!!:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A system is inconsistent is there is no solution!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you answer 4. more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shortycme

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@amcarson

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For the graph shown, select the statement that best represents the given system of equations. 4y + x = 2 8y + 2x = 4 A. coincident B. consistent and independent C. inconsistent D. not enough information

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

anyone?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmath333

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

4y + x = 2 8y + 2x = 4--->2(4y + x) = 4,--divide by 2-->(4y + x) = 2 \(\large\tt \begin{align} \color{black}{\text{these are called the coincidents lines}}\end{align}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

http://www.mathnstuff.com/math/algebra/amental.htm This should summarize how to answer these questions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it didnt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmath333 so its coincident?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok sorry lost internet and sisnt show anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How many solutions does this system of equations have? A. none B. exactly one C. exactly two D. infinitely many

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmath333

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

these lines are parallel lines and parallel lines have \[\text{NO solutions}\]
