A system of equations has no solution. If y = 8x + 7 is one of the equations, which could be the other equation?

1 answer:

5 0

For the answer to the question above, a system of equations has no solution when the lines representing the equation are parallel but do not coincide. For two lines to be parallel, the must have the same gradient i.e. coefficient of x when y is made the subject of formula must be equal.
If one of the equations is
y = 8x + 7,
then the other equation will be
y = 8x - 7

A karat equals 1/24 part of gold in an alloy [ eg 9 karat gold is 9/24 gold]. How many grams of 9 karat gold must be mixed with

irinina [24]

This is a mixture problem.

Let the 9 karat gold to be mixed be x. The 18 karat would weight (200 - x). Since the total = 200g.

mass1 * karat1 + mass2*karat = total mass * total carat

Let mass1 be x g. mass 2 would be = (200 -x)
karat 1 = 9 karat 2 = 18

Total mass = 200g.
Total karat = 14.

9*x + 18*(200 -x) = 14*200

9x + 18*200 - 18*x = 14*200

18*200 + 9x - 18x = 14*200

3600 - 9x = 2800

3600 - 2800 = 9x

800 = 9x

9x = 800

x = 800/9

x ≈ 88.89

Therefore 88.89 grams of 9 karat gold must be mixed.
