To answer your questions, I will break down each part based on the details provided.
Question 1: Solutions to the system of equations {y = 2x + 2, y = 2x - 4}
-
Point (0, 2): Substitute x = 0 into both equations.
- For y = 2x + 2: y = 2(0) + 2 = 2 ✓ (solution)
- For y = 2x - 4: y = 2(0) - 4 = -4 ✗ (not a solution)
-
Point (0, -4): Substitute x = 0.
- For y = 2x + 2: y = 2(0) + 2 = 2 ✗ (not a solution)
- For y = 2x - 4: y = 2(0) - 4 = -4 ✓ (solution)
Answer: (0, 2) is a solution to one equation, and (0, -4) is a solution to the other equation. Therefore, Neither of these points are solutions.
Question 2: Time when divers are at the same depth
To estimate the time when the divers are at the same depth, you would look for the point where the two lines intersect or get close in value in the y-axis since y represents their depth.
- (3.67, -7): Could be a reasonable estimate depending on the graph.
- (3, -6): Likewise.
- (3.5, -6.5): Centrally located within the potential intersection area.
- (3.5, 6.5): This value doesn’t seem to fit if we’re considering a negative depth for a dive into a pool.
Given these points, (3.5, -6.5) seems the most reasonable estimate.
Question 3: Best approximate solution to the system of equations
Without an image to assess the actual intersection of the two lines, I can only provide guidance based on potential choices.
- (3, 7): Solution candidate.
- (3.5, 7.5): Another possible solution.
- (−3, 7): Unlikely if lines are intersecting positively.
- (−3.5, 7.5): Should be verified against the graph.
Based on the intersections, you would pick the point that looks nearest to where they cross each other.
Question 4: Statement describing the system of equations {y = -3x + 7, y = -3x - 7}
Both equations have a slope of -3, which indicates they are parallel lines (since they have the same slope but different y-intercepts).
Answer: Both equations have a slope of -3, but they do not share the same y-intercept. Thus, the system has no solutions because the lines are parallel.
Question 5: Systems of linear equations with no solution
This question asks you to identify which system has no solutions, i.e., the lines are parallel.
- {4x + y = 17, 4x - y = 3} → Same slope.
- {4x - y = -17, 4x + y = 3} → Different slope.
- {4x - y = 17, 4x + y = 3} → Different slope.
- {4x - y = 17, 4x - y = 3} → Identical equations, infinite solutions.
The first option has equations of the same slope and y-intercepts, indicating parallel lines.
Answer: {4x + y = 17, 4x - y = 3}.
Conclusion:
Based on the analysis, the answers are:
- Neither of these points are solutions.
- (3.5, -6.5).
- The best approximate solution would depend on the graph which is missing.
- Both equations have a slope of -3, but they do not share the same y-intercept. Thus, the system has no solutions because the lines are parallel.
- {4x + y = 17, 4x - y = 3}.
