dal and fan How many solutions does this system of equations have?

OpenStudy (tileer139):

A. none B. exactly one C. exactly two D. infinitely many

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Take a long, hard look at the graph you've posted. In this context, what does "solution" mean?

OpenStudy (tileer139):

i dont know i wasnt in school for av mionth

OpenStudy (tileer139):

can you help

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Have you and your parents met with your school to set up a plan by which you could catch up with that month's missed work? It's unrealistic to expect that you could learn current materials while also trying to learn that which you missed, especially if you have only OpenStudy for support. the graph shows two straight lines which intersect. Please take another look at the graph and determine the coordinates (x,y) at which this occurs. x=? y=?

OpenStudy (tileer139):

home school

OpenStudy (mathmale):

But how could you miss school if you've been home schooled at home?

OpenStudy (tileer139):

hospital

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Can you answer my question, above: Determine the coordinates of the point at which the two lines intersect?

OpenStudy (tileer139):

0,3

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Please enclose those coordinates in parentheses. then you'll be done, and have the correct answer.

OpenStudy (tileer139):

A. none B. exactly one C. exactly two D. infinitely many

OpenStudy (tileer139):

i have to pick one

OpenStudy (mathmale):

You have given me x=0, y=3. Those are the "coordinates" of the point where your graphs intersect. Enclose them in parentheses: (0,3). In / at how many places do the two lines intersect?

OpenStudy (tileer139):

thet only intercect once

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Yes, so this particular system of equations has only one solution.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

|dw:1452436003501:dw|

OpenStudy (tileer139):

thanks

OpenStudy (tileer139):

can u help me with 2 more

OpenStudy (mathmale):

You're welcome. Hope you can catch up with y our math. Post one new question, separate from this post. Tag me: @mathmale
