Answer:

option 3 and 5 are correct i.e.

3) Create a pair of equations with different slopes.

5) Create a pair of lines that intersect at only one point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since for a system of equations to have a unique solution we must have the following properties:

1)

if we will create  a pair of equivalent equations then we can't get a unique value of x and y we will get that either x is depending on y or y is depending on x i.e. we will have a variable equation.

Hence option 1) is not correct.

2)

Create a pair of lines in which one line lies directly on top of the other.

If such a case happens than also we have same equation for both the lines and like 1) we do not get a unique solution.

Hence option 2) is not correct.

3)

Create a pair of equations with different slopes.

such a case will help us to get a unique solution since we will be able to solve the system of equations by means of method of elimination.

Hence, option 3) is correct.

4)

Create a pair of lines that will always stay the same distance apart.

If such a case will happen than that means the two lines are parallel and hence the equations are equivalent.

Hence, option 4) is incorrect.

5)

Create a pair of lines that intersect at only one point.

if such a condition is true than the intersection point is the value of x and y.

hence we will get a unique value.

Hence, option 5) is true.

3 and 5 are the correct choices. as long as the 2 lines have different slopes they intersect at only one point

If the expression (2ya)4 is equivalent to 16y8 , what is the value of A.
Alex Ar [27]
If you meant:

(2ya)^4=16y^8  raise the left side to the power of four

16y^4*a^4=16y^8  divide both sides by 16y^4

a^4=y^4  take the quartic root of both sides

a=±y

A dolphin is 42 feet underwater and ascends at a constant rate for 14 seconds until it reaches the surface. Identify and interpr
Cloud [144]
Ok so, based on the graph lets say that x = seconds and  y = depth of dolphin. the interception in both points is when they are at 0 i.e when x is equals 0 and y equals 0. So At 0 seconds, the dolphin is 42 feet below the surface. So we say that x = 0, y = -42 and then the y intercepts = -42 so the point of interception is(0 (seconds),-42(depth of the dolphin)) When the clock says it's 14 seconds, the dolphin is even with the surface (0 below the surface this time). So we say that x = 14, y = 0. In this case The x intercept = 14 (14,0). But we need to calculate The slope with the formula= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = 42/14 = 3. Therefore, the formula for this line is y = 3x - 42.
