Answer:
z = 4
y = -1
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x - y = 3
Therefore => x = 3 + y
y + 2z =7
Therefore => y= 7 - 2z
We have the equation :
2x + 3y + 4z = 17
2(3 + y) + 3(7 - 2z) + 4z = 17
6 + 2y + 21 - 6z +4z = 17
2(7 -2z) - 2z + 27 = 17
14 - 4z - 2z + 27 = 17
-6z + 41 = 17
-6z = -24
z = 4
If d₁ and d₂ are the lengths of the diagonals, the area is given by
.. A = (1/2)*d₁*d₂
.. A = (1/2)*(12 in)*(16 in)
.. A = 96 in²
If b is the base and h is the height, the area is given by
.. A = b*h
We know the values of A and b, so
.. 96 in² = (10 in)*h
.. (96 in²)/(10 in) = h = 9.6 in
The height is 9.6 in.
Answer:
78 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say Yolanda makes a pounds of Type A coffee and b pounds of Type B coffee. Since the total number of pounds is 130, we can write the equation:
a + b = 130
We know the cost of Type A coffee is $5.20/lb and the cost of Type B coffee is $4.05/lb, so since the total cost is $586.30, we can write:
5.20a + 4.05b = 586.30
We can now solve the system of equations:
a + b = 130
5.20a + 4.05b = 586.30
Manipulate the first equation by subtracting b from both sides:
a + b = 130
a = 130 - b
Substitute 130 - b for a in the second equation:
5.20a + 4.05b = 586.30
5.20 * (130 - b) + 4.05b = 586.30
676 - 5.20b + 4.05b = 586.30
Move the terms with b to one side:
1.15b = 89.70
b = 78
Thus, Yolanda used 78 pounds of Type B coffee.
