How many solutions does the system of equations below have? y=x+2
y=x-1
A one
B two
С none
D infinitely many

C

Step-by-step explanation:

C:  none

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have two separate functions named 'y.'  Eliminate 'y' temporarily by equating these functions together:

x + 2 = y = x - 1

Subtracting x from both sides, we get:

0 + 2 = y = 0 - 1, or

       2 = -1

This is never true, so C is the correct  NO solutions.

An easier way in which to do this problem is to visualize the graphs of

y = x + 2 and y = x - 1.  The graphs are parallel straight lines; they never intersect, and therefore we can conclude "no solution."

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
