Add the last two equations to eliminate <em>x</em> :
(<em>x</em> - 2<em>y</em> - 3<em>z</em>) + (- <em>x</em> + <em>y</em> + 2<em>z</em>) = 0 + 3
- <em>y</em> - <em>z</em> = 3
<em>y</em> + <em>z</em> = -3
Subtract this from the first equation to eliminate <em>z</em>, then solve for <em>y</em> :
(2<em>y</em> + <em>z</em>) - (<em>y</em> + <em>z</em>) = -8 - (-3)
<em>y</em> = -5
Plug this into the first equation to solve for <em>z</em> :
2(-5) + <em>z</em> = -8
<em>z</em> = 2
Plug both of these into either the second or third equations to solve for <em>x</em> :
<em>x</em> - 2(-5) - 3(2) = 0
<em>x</em> = -4

too lazy to explain :/
(a) Answer: One solution.
Explanation: two lines that have same slope with opposite sign will necessarily cross each other at a single point, as one is "pointing uphill" and the other "downhill."
(b) Answer: Infinitely many solutions.
Explanation:
2x + 3y = 5.5
4x + 6y = 11 | divide by 2
-->
2x + 3y = 5.5
2x + 3y = 5.5
--> equations are identical.
2x + 3y = 2x + 3y
so any (x,y) will satisfy this equation. This means infinitely many solutions.
(c) Answer: One solution
Explanation:
Continuing the two lines it becomes obvious they will cross at one point (the solution)
(d) Answer: No solution
Explanation: If the two lines are parallel, they will never cross (by definition of "parallel"). Therefore there will be no solution to the corresponding linear system.
Answer is c..they worship different gods
Answer:
-9
Step-by-step explanation:
Replace x with -7 in the expression:
x^2 + 5 / x + 1
-7^2 + 5 / -7 + 1
49 + 5 / -6
54/-6
simplify the fraction
9/-1 = -9
