The system of equations y= 1/4x-1 and y= -1/2x-1/4 is shown on the graph below.
what is a reasonable estimate for the solution?
a. (1, -3/4)
b. (-3/4, 1)
c. (-1, 3/4)
d. (3/4, -1)

A:(1,-3/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use substitution to solve the system

y= 1/4x-1

y= -1/2x-1/4

1/4x-1 = -1/2x-1/4, Solve for x

3/4x= 3/4, x = 1, Next solve for y by plugging the x-value into either equation.

y=1/4(1)-1

y=-3/4

true

step-by-step explanation:

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
