Answer:
<u>The number of intersections = ∞</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
0.5 x + 5y = 6
3x + 30y = 36
By multiplying the first equation by 6
∴ 6 (0.5 x + 5y) = 6 * 6
∴ 3x + 30y = 36
So, Those equations are "Dependent", because they are really the same equation, just multiplied the first equation by 6.
So, the two equations are identical
Therefore: <u>They have infinity number of solutions.</u>
<u>See the attached figure.</u>
0.5 x + 5y = 6 ⇒ in black color
3x + 30y = 36 ⇒ in red color
We are given the function <span>–2x – 4 + 5x = 8 and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:
-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.
3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.</span>
Lets find all the numbers..
x (1st number)
x + 2 ( 2nd number)
x + 4 (3rd number)
x + 6 (4th number)
x + 8 (5th number)
x + 10 (6th number)
Now add all those expressions and set them equal to 270 because that is the total.
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 + x + 10 = 270
6x + 30 = 270
6x = 240
x = 40
Now we will substitute 40 for x in the expression of the second number.
x + 2
40 + 2
42
So the second number is 42
Hope this helps :)
