Question

Construct 3 linear equation starting with qiven solution z = 1/3

Answer 1

Answer:

(a)$9z+2=5$

(b)$21z-11=-4$

(c)$4z=2-2z$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to construct 3 linear equations starting with the given solution z = 1/3.

Equation 1

$z=\frac{1}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 9

$9z=\frac{1}{3}\times 9\\9z=3$

Rewrite 3 as 5-2

9z=5-2

Add 2 to both sides

Our first equation is: $9z+2=5$

Equation 2

$z=\frac{1}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 21

$21z=\frac{1}{3}\times 21\\21z=7$

Rewrite 7 as 11-4

21z=11-4

Subtract 11 from both sides

Our second equation is: $21z-11=-4$

Equation 3

$z=\frac{1}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 6

$6z=\frac{1}{3}\times 6\\6z=2$

Rewrite 6z as 4z+2z

4z+2z=2

Subtract 2z from both sides

Our third equation is: $4z=2-2z$
