Answer:
Some of the other answers are good examples of solving a system of three equations in three unknowns, which is what this problem is asking. Though the simplest way to solve this problem is actually to notice that, if we sum the three equations, we get:
X + Y = 10
X + Z = 20
+ Y + Z = 24
----------------
2X + 2Y + 2Z = 54
Factoring out the 2, we have 2(X + Y + Z) = 54, and dividing both sides by 2 reveals that X + Y + Z = 27.

3x-18 is less than -90
First, you add 18 to both sides of the inequality (getting 3x is less than -72). Then you divide by 3 on both sides giving you your answer x is less than -24
Answer:
63 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
piece 1: x
piece 2: x - 18
First you would subtract 2x - 18 = 108
Second you would add 108 + 18 = 2x
Third you would divide 126 divided by 2x = 63
So that would mean x = 63
1 pound ≈ 0.4536 kg.
3 pounds ≈ 3 * 0.4536 ≈ 1.3608 kg
Hence 3 pounds ≈ 1.3608 kg.
Answer:
P = 4/7
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 5 cards with a picture of a rose and 3 cards with a picture of a daisy.
Then we have a total of 8 cards.
Now Alia turns over one card, and this card has a picture of a rose, then she removes it.
This means that now there are 4 cards with a picture of a rose and 3 cards with a picture of a daisy, so now we have a total of 7 cards.
We want to find the probability that the next turned card has also a rose on it.
This will be equal to the quotient between the number of cards with a rose on it (4 cards) and the total number of cards (7)
Then the probability is:
P = 4/7
