Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out this problem, you can look at formulas, or you can try out a few problems. There are many people that prefer one or the other in my class, so I will show you both. :)Before I show you either of these, I'm going to define rational numbers and explain some things so that you can understand why we do what we do. Make sure to remember things like this because when you get to algebra (I'm in algebra), you need to know all of this stuff! :)A rational number is any number that can be written in a over b form (a/b) or as a fraction. A rational number can be positive or negative because you can put positive and negative numbers into a fraction. Decimals can also be rational numbers because things such as .3 can be written as 3/10. So, depending on what number you have, there is always an opposite. To find an opposite number, you have to basically find the absolute value (how far the number is from zero), double that number, and add it from the original number. Or, if you want to make it worlds easier, you can just make the number the opposite inverse. So, if it is -4, the opposite is 4. If the number is 7, then the opposite is -7. What is the sum between both of those examples? Zero.Here is the formula: a+(-a)=0, (-a)+a=0Here is some examples: (-5)+5=0, 8+(-8)=0

The answer is 0. The opposite of 25 is -25.
25+(-25)=0

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

Asystem of linear equations with more equations than unknowns is sometimes called an overdetermined system. can such a system be consistent? illustrate your answer with a specific system of three equations in two unknowns. choose the correct answer below. a. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 6 b. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are fewer free variables than equations. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 12 c. yes, overdetermined systems can be consistent. for example, the system of equations below is consistent because it has the solution nothing. (type an ordered pair.) x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 8 d. no, overdetermined systems cannot be consistent because there are no free variables. for example, the system of equations below has no solution. x 1 equals 2 comma x 2 equals 4 comma x 1 plus x 2 equals 24
