PLEASE HELP MEEEE HURRRY!!! :)

Mathematics

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equations -

\begin{bmatrix}-5x-12y-43z=-136\\ -4x-14y-52z=-146\\ 21x+72y+267z=756\end{bmatrix}

It would be best to solve this equation in matrix form. Write down the coefficients of each terms, and reduce to " row echelon form " -

\begin{bmatrix}-5&-12&-43&-136\\ -4&-14&-52&-146\\ 21&72&267&756\end{bmatrix}  First, I swapped the first and third rows.

\begin{bmatrix}21&72&267&756\\ -4&-14&-52&-146\\ -5&-12&-43&-136\end{bmatrix}  Leading coefficient of row 2 canceled.  

\begin{bmatrix}21&72&267&756\\ 0&-\frac{2}{7}&-\frac{8}{7}&-2\\ -5&-12&-43&-136\end{bmatrix}  The start value of row 3 was canceled.

\begin{bmatrix}21&72&267&756\\ 0&-\frac{2}{7}&-\frac{8}{7}&-2\\ 0&\frac{36}{7}&\frac{144}{7}&44\end{bmatrix}       Matrix rows 2 and 3 were swapped.

\begin{bmatrix}21&72&267&756\\ 0&\frac{36}{7}&\frac{144}{7}&44\\ 0&-\frac{2}{7}&-\frac{8}{7}&-2\end{bmatrix}      Leading coefficient in row 3 was canceled.

\begin{bmatrix}21&72&267&756\\ 0&\frac{36}{7}&\frac{144}{7}&44\\ 0&0&0&\frac{4}{9}\end{bmatrix}

And at this point, I came to the conclusion that this system of equations had no solutions, considering it reduced to this -

\begin{bmatrix}1&0&-1&0\\ 0&1&4&0\\ 0&0&0&1\end{bmatrix}

The positioning of the zeros indicated that there was no solution!

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

$345 : whichever is closest

Step-by-step explanation:

Pants were $20 each and she bought 9 of them so multiply:

9x20=180

She paid $180 for 9 pants.

Shirts cost $15 each and she bought 11 of them so Mulitply:

15x11=165

She paid $165 for 11 shirts

Add both totals from pants and shirts

165+180=$345

SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!
vaieri [72.5K]
Answer: Choice C

The non-pencil part of the compass is placed at point G. The compass must be kept the same width that was used to form the arc shown. The idea is to draw another arc so that it starts above G (so its on the opposite side of point A) and traces out a similar path as the arc in the diagram. 

Check out the attached image to see what I mean. The new second arc is shown in red.
