Answer:
(x, y, z) = (-3, -1, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Many graphing calculators can solve matrix equations handily. Here, we use a combination of methods.
Use the last equation to write an expression for z.
z = 4 -x +4y
Substitute this into the second equation:
y -4(4 -x +4y) = -13
y -16 +4x -16y = -13
4x -15y -3 = 0
In genera form, the first equation can be written as ...
3x +y +10 = 0
Now, the solution to these two equations can be found to be ...
x = (-15(10) -1(-3))/(4(1) -3(-15)) = (-150 +3)/(4+45) = -3 . . . using "Cramer's rule"
y = -(10 +3x) = -(10 -9) = -1 . . . . from the first equation
z = 4 -(-3) +4(-1) = 3 . . . . . . . . from our equation for z
The solution to the system is (x, y, z) = (-3, -1, 3).

Answer:
The probability that Chang gets dressed with a white shirt and tan pants is 25%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Chang has 2 shirts, a white one and a black one, and he also has 2 pairs of pants, one blue and one tan, to determine what is the probability, if Chang gets dressed in the dark, that he winds up wearing the white shirt and tan pants the following calculation must be performed:
Each shirt = 50% chance
Each pants = 50% chance
0.50 x 0.50 = X
0.25 = X
Therefore, the probability that Chang gets dressed with a white shirt and tan pants is 25%.
I’m supposing you are writing an equation for this. The equation could be written as 6x+10=4y+11.
-50 + 17 = - 33
-33 + 17 = -16
- 16 +17 =1
This is arithmetic sequence, where 1st term is -50,
and common difference is 17.
Formula for the term of arithmetic sequence
a(n) = a(1) +d(n-1) = -50 +17(n-1) = -50 +17n - 17 = -67 +17n
So, we can write a formula
a(n) = -67 +17n
