Mathematics

Answer:

x = -1 , y = -4 , z = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-x - 5 y + z = 17 | (equation 1)

-5 x - 5 y + 5 z = 5 | (equation 2)

2 x + 5 y - 3 z = -10 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{-(5 x) - 5 y + 5 z = 5 | (equation 1)

-x - 5 y + z = 17 | (equation 2)

2 x + 5 y - 3 z = -10 | (equation 3)

Subtract 1/5 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{-(5 x) - 5 y + 5 z = 5 | (equation 1)

0 x - 4 y+0 z = 16 | (equation 2)

2 x + 5 y - 3 z = -10 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by 5:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - 4 y+0 z = 16 | (equation 2)

2 x + 5 y - 3 z = -10 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 4:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - y+0 z = 4 | (equation 2)

2 x + 5 y - 3 z = -10 | (equation 3)

Add 2 × (equation 1) to equation 3:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x - y+0 z = 4 | (equation 2)

0 x+3 y - z = -8 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y - z = -8 | (equation 2)

0 x - y+0 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Add 1/3 × (equation 2) to equation 3:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y - z = -8 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y - z/3 = 4/3 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 3:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y - z = -8 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y - z = 4 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by -1:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y - z = -8 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -4 | (equation 3)

Add equation 3 to equation 2:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+3 y+0 z = -12 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -4 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 3:

{-x - y + z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -4 | (equation 3)

Add equation 2 to equation 1:

{-x + 0 y+z = -3 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -4 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 3 from equation 1:

{-x+0 y+0 z = 1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -4 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 1 by -1:

{x+0 y+0 z = -1 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -4 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = -1 , y = -4 , z = -4

Help with my homework. Please.
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: since average speed = total distance/time

a)average speed of the journey from my home town to A = 10 miles/20 minutes = 0.5

b)journey from my home town to B = 20 miles/30 minutes = 0.7

c)10 miles + 20 miles = 30 miles

which takes 50 minutes

so: 30 miles/50 minutes = 0.6

Solve the equation and check the solution.
myrzilka [38]

A - 2 1/2 = 1 1/2

Solve for A by adding 2 1/2 to both sides:

A = 1 1/2 + 2 1/2

A = 4

The answer is c. A = 4

Check: 4 - 2 1/2 = 1 1/2

The minute hand of a clock is 8 inches long and moves from 12 to 8 o’clock. How far does the tip of the minute hand move?
ryzh [129]

The minute hand is like an eight inch radius of a circle, whose circumference would equal 2 * PI * 8 = 50.265 inches.  By moving to 8 o'clock, it travels 2/3 of the circumference or 50.265 * 2/3 = 33.510 inches

yan [13]

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>A = Area of First Rectangle </em></u>

<u><em>B = Area of Second Rectangle </em></u>

<u><em>w = Width</em></u>

<u></u>

12(w)=320+B (1st Equation)

8(w) = B (2nd Equation)

w=B/8 <em><u>(Plug this value of w into the first equation)</u></em>

12B/8 = 320 +B <u><em>(you get this)</em></u>

12B= 2560 + 8B <u><em>(Simplify)</em></u>

4B = 2560

B =640 <em><u>plug this value into the 2nd equation</u></em>

8(w) = 640

w = 80

<em>To Test This</em>

12x80 = 960

8x80 = 640

<h3>960 - 640 = 320 <u><em>Therefore the answer is correct the width is 80</em></u></h3>
