Fiona wrote the linear equation y = 2/5x -5. When Henry wrote his equation, they discovered that his equation had all the same solutions as Fiona’s. Which equation could be Henry’s?

Respuesta :

Given the equation written by Fiona and Henry, If both linear equations have the same solutions, Henry's equation is x - 5/2y = 25/2.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.

This question is incomplete, the missing answer choices are;

A. x- 5/4y =25/4

B. x-5/2y=25/4

C. x-5/4y =25/4

D. x- 5/2y=25/2

Which equation could be Henry’s?

Given the linear equation written by Fiona; y = 2/5x - 5.

From the answer choices provided, they are in the form of x - (m)y = b.

We will transform Fiona's equation into that form.

y = 2/5x - 5

Divide each term by the coefficient of x.

y(5/2) = (5/2)2/5x - (5/2)5

5/2y = x - 25/2

25/2 = x - 5/2y

x - 5/2y = 25/2

Given the equation written by Fiona and Henry, If both linear equations have the same solutions, Henry's equation is x - 5/2y = 25/2.

Hence, option D is the correct answer.
