Solve. 4x−y−2z=−8 −2x+4z=−4 x+2y=6 Enter your answer, in the form (x,y,z), in the boxes in simplest terms. x= y= z=
ladessa [460]

Answer:

(-2, 4, -2)

x=-2, y=4, z=-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the three equations:

4x-y-2z=-8\\-2x+4z=-4\\x+2y=6

And we want to find the value of each variable.

To solve this system, first look at it and consider what you should try to do.

So we can see that the second and third equations both have an x.

Therefore, we can isolate the variables for the second and third equation and then substitute them into the first equation to make the first equation all xs.

Therefore, let's first isolate the variable in the second and third equation.

Second Equation:

-2x+4z=-4

First, divide everything by -2 to simplify things:

x-2z=2

Subtract x from both sides. The xs on the left cancel:

(x-2z)-x=2-x\\-2z=2-x

Now, divide everything by -2 to isolate the z:

z=-\frac{2-x}{2}

So we've isolated the z variable. Now, do the same to the y variable in the third equation:

x+2y=6

Subtract x from both sides:

2y=6-x

Divide both sides by 2:

y=\frac{6-x}{2}

Now that we've isolated the y and z variables, plug them back into the first equation. Therefore:

4x-y-2z=-8\\4x-(\frac{6-x}{2})-2(-\frac{2-x}{2})=-8

Distribute the third term. The -2s cancel out:

4x-(\frac{6-x}{2})+(2-x)=-8

Since there is still a fraction, multiply everything by 2 to remove it:

2(4x-(\frac{6-x}{2})+(2-x))=2(-8)

Distribute:

8x-(6-x)+2(2-x)=-16\\8x-6+x+4-2x=-16

Combine like terms:

8x+x-2x-6+4=-16\\7x-2=-16

Add 2 to both sides:

7x=-14

Divide both sides by 7:

(7x)/7=(-14)/7\\x=-2

Therefore, x is -2.

Now, plug this back into the second and third simplified equations to get the other values.

Second equation:

z=-\frac{2-x}{2}\\ z=-\frac{2-(-2)}{2}\\z=-\frac{4}{2}\\z=-2

Third equation:

y=\frac{6-x}{2}\\y=\frac{6-(-2)}{2}\\y=\frac{8}{2}\\y=4

Therefore, the solution is (-2, 4, -2)

John and Martha are contemplating having children, but John’s brother has galactosemia (an autosomal recessive disease) and Mart
Rina8888 [55]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Probability=\frac{1}{24}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

As the question states,

John's brother has Galactosemia which states that his parents were both the carriers.

Therefore, the chances for the John to have the disease is = 2/3

Now,

Martha's great-grandmother also had the disease that means her children definitely carried the disease means probability of 1.

Now, one of those children married with a person.

So,

Probability for the child to have disease will be = 1/2

Now, again the child's child (Martha) probability for having the disease is = 1/2.

Therefore,

<u>The total probability for Martha's first child to be diagnosed with Galactosemia will be,</u>

Probability=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{4}\\Probability=\frac{1}{24}

(Here, we assumed that the child has the disease therefore, the probability was taken to be = 1/4.)

<em><u>Hence, the probability for the first child to have Galactosemia is \frac{1}{24}</u></em>
