How many solutions does a system of two linear equations have if the slope of each equation is the same, but the y-intercepts are different? infinitely many none one none of the above
If the slopes are the same, then the lines are parallel, which means they never intersect and there are no solutions.
do you think you can help me with my math I'm so bad at it and i need some help
and so would i put none of the above
depends on what you ask. I'll help where I can.
Just none
okay thank you and hold on
Select the system of linear equations that has the solution (7, 0).
A. x-y=7 B. x+y=9 & 7x+3y=10 C.-5x-y=-35 & x-y=7 D.x+y=7 &3x-4y=21 & 3x+4y=-20 this is the choices
The solution only has 2 numbers, so there have to be 2 equations. Can't be A or D
Plug in 7 for x and 0 for y to test the other systems.
i got b for the answer
The first equation in B is x + y = 9 7 + 0 is not 9, so that can't be the answer
oh i see now
and my last questions is how many solutions does x-3y=-8 & x+3y=8
infinitely many none one none of the above
The slope of the first equation is 1/3. The slope of the second equation is -1/3. Different slopes → 1 solution
thank you so much are you good at graphs
kind of
I'm going to send you one hold on
(0, -5) (1, 3) (0, 0) (-1, -3)
The yellow box is kind of covering it, but the solution is the point where the blue lines cross.
is it going to be -1,-3
yeah that looks right
(3, -6) (1, 0) (0, 4.5) (2, 7)
same thing, pick where the lines cross
is it 2,7
no. |dw:1432682478897:dw|
oh is it 3,-6
yep
yaaay thank you so much with the help
you're welcome
