Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2+3 = 5 ratio units representing 45 band members, so each ratio unit represents 45/5 = 9 band members.
The 2 ratio units of sixth graders represent 2×9 = 18 sixth grade band members.
Two equations will not have solution if they are parallel and have different y-intercepts. Parallel lines have the same slope. In a slope-intercept form, the equation of the line can be expressed as,
y = mx + b
where m is slope and b is the y-intercept.
Given: 3x - 4y = 2
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 - 1/2
A. 2y = 1.5x - 2
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 - 1
B. 2y = 1.5x - 1
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 - 1/2
C. 3x + 4y = 2
Slope-intercept: y = -3x/4 + 1/2
D. -4y + 3x = -2
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 + 1/2
Hence, the answers to this item are A and D.
<h3>
Answer: Choice A</h3>
The first line shown in choice A is 
which means "the first term is -2"
The next line in choice A means "the nth term (
) is found by multiplying the prior term (
) by 8". Put another way: multiply each term by 8 to get the next term.
first term = -2
second term = 8*(first term) = 8*(-2) = -16
third term = 8*(second term) = 8*(-16) = -128
fourth term = 8*(third term) = 8*(-128) = -1024
and so on.
