Answer:

Hi,

a=b+3

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{array}{c||c|c|c|c}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a&b&c\\x=-1&&-1&a+1&-a-b-1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a-1&a+b+1&c-a-b-1\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{c||c|c|c|c}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&-a&b&c\\x=2&&2&4-2a&2b+8-4a\\---&---&---&---&---\\&1&2-a&b+4-2a&c+2b+8-4a\\\end{array}

Thus:

c+2b+8-4a=c-a-b-1

3b-3a=-9

<u>a=b+3</u>

2x + 4y = 12 y = x – 3 What is the solution to the system of equations? (–1, 8) (8, –1) 5 1/2 1/2 5
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The solution is (8, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4y = 12..........(1)

y = 1/4x – 3 ..........(2)

Substitute y = x - 3 in equation (1):

2x + 4(1/4x - 3) = 12

2x + x - 12 = 12

3x = 24

x = 8.

Now substitute for x in equation (2):

y = 1/4 *8 - 3

y = -1.

Express the following relations in the set builder notation. Then, determine whether it is reflexive, symmetric, transitive. Ple
pshichka [43]

Answer:

a)Reflexive, not symmetric, transitive

b)Reflexive, not symmetric, transitive

c)Not reflexive, symmetric, not transitive

d)Reflexive, not symmetric, transitive

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

R=\left \{ (a,b)\epsilon  \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R} \mid a \leq b\right \}

The relation R is reflexive for

a\leq a for every real number a

it is not symmetric because 0 is less than 1, but 1 is not less than 0

it is transitive

a\leq and b\leq c\Rightarrow a\leq c

So if aRb and bRc, then aRc

b)  

R=\left \{ (m,n)\epsilon  \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z} \mid \exists k\in \mathbb{Z} \ni m=kn \right \}

R is reflexive because m=1.m for every integer m

R is not symmetric: 2 is a factor of 4, but 4 is not a factor of 2

R is transitive:  if mRn and nRp if m=kn and n=qp, so m=(kq)p and kq is an integer , so mRp

c)

R=\left \{ (m,n)\epsilon  \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z} \mid m\neq n\right \}

R is obviously not reflexive because all numbers equals themselves

R is symmetric: if a different to b, then b different to a

R is not transitive: 1R2 and 2R1 (because 1 different to 2), but 1 = 1

d)

R=\left \{ A,B\mid A\subseteq B \right \}

R is reflexive for every set A is a subset of itself

R is not symmetric {1,2} is a subset of {1,2,3} but {1,2,3} is not a subset of {1,2}

R is transitive: if A is subset of B and B is subset of C, then A is subset of C
