Study Notes
Lines in Standard Form
- Lines represented by equations in standard form, 𝐴𝑥 + 𝐵𝑦 = 𝐶 and 𝐷𝑥 + 𝐸𝑦 = 𝐹, are parallel if the coefficients for 𝑥 and 𝑦 in one equation are proportional to the corresponding coefficients in the other equation; this means that 𝐷/𝐴 = 𝐸/𝐵.
- Lines are distinct if the constants are not proportional, meaning 𝐶/𝐴 ≠ 𝐹/𝐷.
Example: Solving for a Variable
- The provided system of equations:
- 𝑦 - 𝑥/2 = 23 - 32𝑦 (first equation)
- 𝑥 + 3/2 = 𝑝𝑦 + 9/2 (second equation)
- To determine when the system has no solution, we must find the value of 'p' that makes the lines parallel and distinct.
- Rearranging the first equation:
- 36𝑦 - 3𝑥 = 8
- -3𝑥 + 36𝑦 = 8
- Rearranging the second equation:
- 𝑥 - 2𝑝𝑦 = 6
- The two equations in the standard form are:
- -3𝑥 + 36𝑦 = 8
- 𝑥 - 2𝑝𝑦 = 6
- For the system to have no solutions, the lines must be parallel and distinct. This means the ratio of the coefficients for 𝑥 and 𝑦 in both equations must be equal (1/-3 = -2𝑝/36) and the ratio of the constants must not be equal (6/1 ≠ 8/-3).
- Solving the proportion, we get 𝑝 = 6.
- Therefore, if the system has no solution, the value of 𝑝 is 6.
Additional Notes
- The text provides a thorough explanation of how to solve for the value of a variable in a system of equations with no solution.
- It emphasizes the relationship between the coefficients and constants of the lines in standard form and how their proportions determine if the lines are parallel and distinct.
- The steps involved in manipulating the equations and simplifying them to standard form are clearly explained.
- The importance of understanding the concept of proportional coefficients in determining parallel lines is highlighted.
- The process of solving the proportion to find the value of 'p' is demonstrated, emphasizing the connection between the coefficient ratios and the no-solution condition.
