This module is from Elementary Algebra by Denny Burzynski and Wade Ellis, Jr. Beginning with the graphical solution of systems, this chapter includes an interpretation of independent, inconsistent, and dependent systems and examples to illustrate the applications for these systems. The substitution method and the addition method of solving a system by elimination are explained, noting when to use each method. The five-step method is again used to illustrate the solutions of value and rate problems (coin and mixture problems), using drawings that correspond to the actual situation.This module contains the objectives for the chapter "Systems of Linear Equations".

After completing this chapter, you should

    Solutions by graphing ( [link] )

  • be able to recognize a system of equations and a solution to it
  • be able to graphically interpret independent, inconsistent, and dependent systems
  • be able to solve a system of linear equations graphically

    Elimination by substitution ( [link] )

  • know when the substitution method works best
  • be able to use the substitution method to solve a system of linear equations
  • know what to expect when using substitution with a system that consists of parallel lines or coincident lines

    Elimination by addition ( [link] )

  • know the properties used in the addition method
  • be able to use the addition method to solve a system of linear equations
  • know what to expect when using the addition method with a system that consists of parallel or coincident lines

    Applications ( [link] )

  • become more familiar with the five-step method for solving applied problems
  • be able to solve number problems
  • be able to solve value and rate problems

How bacteria create energy to survive?
Muhamad Reply
Bacteria doesn't produce energy they are dependent upon their substrate in case of lack of nutrients they are able to make spores which helps them to sustain in harsh environments
_Adnan
But not all bacteria make spores, l mean Eukaryotic cells have Mitochondria which acts as powerhouse for them, since bacteria don't have it, what is the substitution for it?
Muhamad
they make spores

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products

They are friends to host only when Host immune system is strong and become enemies when the host immune system is weakened . very bad relationship!

define infection ,prevention and control

I think infection prevention and control is the avoidance of all things we do that gives out break of infections and promotion of health practices that promote life
