Complete question is;

An electrician earns $110 after his first hour of working for a client. His total pay based on the number of hours worked can be represented using the sequence shown.

110, 130, 150, 170, ...

Which recursive formula can be used to determine the total amount of money earned for each successive hour worked based on the amount of money currently earned?

Answer:

The recursive formula can be expressed as; f(x + 1) = f(x) + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Electrician earns $110 dollars after working for 1 hour.

We were told his total pay based on number of hours worked can be represented by: 110, 130, 150, 170...

This means that writing it down as a function, we can say;

f(1) = $110, f(2) = $130 e.t.c

Now,since we want to express a recursive formula to explain the question, then let's say after the 1 hour worked, he earned $110, then the hour after that, his total is $130,then the hour after that, his total is $150.

This means that he earns an additional $20 each hour.

Thus;

f(x + 1) = f(x) + 20

Where x is number of hours and f(x) is payment after x number of hours

The recursive formula can be expressed as; f(x + 1) = f(x) + 20

Solve the following system in three variables using linear combinations. 3x−2y+z=0 4x+y−3z=−9 9x−2y+2z=20
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The solution of the system of equations is

x=2,y=7,z=8

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

3x-2y+z=0

isolate the variable z

z=2y-3x ------> equation A

4x+y-3z=-9 ----> equation B

9x-2y+2z=20 ----> equation C                  

substitute equation A in equation B and equation C

4x+y-3(2y-3x)=-9

4x+y-6y+9x=-9

13x-5y=-9 -------> equation D

9x-2y+2(2y-3x)=20

9x-2y+4y-6x=20

3x+2y=20 ----> equation E

Solve the system

13x-5y=-9 -------> equation D

3x+2y=20 ----> equation E

Multiply equation E by 2.5 both sides

2.5*(3x+2y)=20*2.5

7.5x+5y=50 -----> equation F

Adds equation D and equation F

13x-5y=-9

7.5x+5y=50

------------------

13x+7.5x=-9+50

20.5x=41

x=41/20.5

x=2

<u><em>Find the value of y</em></u>

substitute the value of x in the equation E

3(2)+2y=20

6+2y=20

2y=20-6

2y=14

y=7

<u><em>Find the value of z</em></u>

Substitute the value of x and the value of y in equation A

z=2y-3x

z=2(7)-3(2)

z=14-6

z=8

therefore

The solution of the system of equations is

x=2,y=7,z=8
