The point (0,-2) is a solution to the system of equations:
-4x + y = 6
-5x + y = -2
-4x + y = 6
-5x + y = -2
-5x + y = -2
-3x + 6y = -12
Let's go through each system one by one and substitute the values of x = 0 and y = -2:
1. -4x + y = 6:
-4(0) + (-2) = 6
0 - 2 = 6
-2 = 6
This statement is FALSE.
2. -5x - y = 21:
-5(0) - (-2) = 21
0 + 2 = 21
2 = 21
This statement is FALSE.
3. -5x + y = -2:
-5(0) + (-2) = -2
0 - 2 = -2
-2 = -2
This statement is TRUE.
4. -3x + 6y = -12:
-3(0) + 6(-2) = -12
0 - 12 = -12
-12 = -12
This statement is TRUE.
5. -5x = y - 3:
-5(0) = (-2) - 3
0 = -2 - 3
0 = -5
This statement is FALSE.
6. 3x - 8y = 24:
3(0) - 8(-2) = 24
0 + 16 = 24
16 = 24
This statement is FALSE.
7. x + y = 2:
0 + (-2) = 2
-2 = 2
This statement is FALSE.
8. -x + 2y = 16:
-(0) + 2(-2) = 16
0 - 4 = 16
-4 = 16
This statement is FALSE.
From the calculations above, we can see that the point (0,-2) is a solution to the system -5x + y = -2 and -3x + 6y = -12.
-5x + y = -2
-3x + 6y = -12
So, the correct response is:
Substitute 5 in for x and 6 in for y in both of the equations to see if both equations are true.
Let P = the number of pizza slices sold
Let S = the number of sodas sold
The price of a pizza slice is $3.50 and the price of a soda is $1.50.
The first equation represents the total revenue from selling pizza slices and sodas combined, which should equal $800:
3.50P + 1.50S = 800
The second equation represents the total number of pizza slices and sodas sold, which should equal 344:
P + S = 344
So, the correct equations are:
3.50P + 1.50S = 800 and
P + S = 344
There is exactly one solution to this system of linear equations and it is (0, -2).
These lines are parallel, so there is no solution to this system of linear equations.
