For the equation of the line expressed as Ax + By + C = 0, the value of the slope (m) is calculated by -A / B. For perpendicular lines, the slope of one should be the negative reciprocal of the other. From the choices given, the lines that are perpendicular is Option A.

Solve using elimination<br> x+y-2z=8<br> 5x-3y+z=-6<br> -2x-y+4z=-13

Free_Kalibri [48]

So here is your answer with LaTeX issued format interpretation. Full process elucidated briefly, below:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}x + y - 2z = 8 \\ 5x - 3y + 2 = - 6 \\ - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 \end{alignedat}$

For this equation to get obtained under the impression of those variables we have to eliminate them individually for moving further and simplifying the linear equation with three variables along the axis.

Multiply the equation of x + y - 2z = 8 by a number with a value of 5; Here this becomes; 5x + 5y - 10z = 40; So:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}5x + 5y - 10z = 40 \\ 5x - 3y + z = - 6 \\ - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 \end{alignedat}$

Pair up the equations in a way to eliminate the provided variable on our side, that is; "x":

5x - 3y + z = - 6

-

5x + 5y - 10z = 40
______________

- 8y + 11z = - 46

Therefore, we are getting.

$\begin{alignedat}{3}5x + 5y - 10z = 40 \\ - 8y + 11z = - 46 \\ - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 \end{alignedat}$

Multiply the equation of 5x + 5y - 10z = - 40 by a number with a value of 2; Here this becomes; 10x + 10y - 20z = 80.

Multiply the equation of - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 by a number with a value of 5; Here this becomes; - 10x - 5y + 20z = - 65; So:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 8y + 11z = - 46 \\ - 10x - 5y + 20z = - 65 \end{alignedat}$

Pair up the equations in a way to eliminate the provided variables on our side, that is; "x" and "z":

- 10x - 5y + 20z = - 65

+
10x + 10y - 20z = 80
__________________

5y = 15

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 8y + 11z = - 46 \\ 5y = 15 \end{alignedat}$

Multiply the equation of - 8y + 11z = - 46 by a number with a value of 5; Here this becomes; - 40y + 55z = - 230.

Multiply the equation of 5y = 15 by a number with a value of 8; Here this becomes; 40y = 120; So:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 40y + 55z = - 690 \\ 40y = 120 \end{alignedat}$

Pair up the equations in a way to eliminate the provided variables on our side, that is; "y":

40y = 120

+

- 40y + 55z = - 230
_________________

55z = - 110

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 40y + 55z = - 230 \\ 55z = - 110 \end{alignedat}$

Solving for the variable of 'z':

$\mathsf{55z = - 110}$

$\bf{\dfrac{55z}{55} = \dfrac{-110}{55}}$

Cancel out the common factor acquired on the numerator and denominator, that is, "55":

$z = - \dfrac{\overbrace{\sout{110}}^{2}}{\underbrace{\sout{55}}_{1}}$

$\boxed{\mathbf{z = - 2}}$

Solving for variable "y":

$\mathbf{\therefore \quad - 40y - 55 \big(- 2 \big) = - 230}$

$\mathbf{- 40y - 55 \times 2 = - 230}$

$\mathbf{- 40y - 110 = - 230}$

$\mathbf{- 40y - 110 + 110 = - 230 + 110}$

Adding the numbered value as 110 into this equation (in previous step).

$\mathbf{- 40y = - 120}$

Divide by - 40.

$\mathbf{\dfrac{- 40y}{- 40} = \dfrac{- 120}{- 40}}$

$\mathbf{y = \dfrac{- 120}{- 40}}$

$\boxed{\mathbf{y = 3}}$

Solve for variable "x":

$\mathbf{10x + 10y - 20z = 80}$

$\mathbf{Since, \: z = - 2; \quad y = 3}$

$\mathbf{10x + 10 \times 3 - 20 \times (- 2) = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 10 \times 3 + 20 \times 2 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 30 + 20 \times 2 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 30 + 40 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 70 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 70 - 70 = 80 - 70}$

$\mathbf{10x = 10}$

Divide by this numbered value $\mathbf{10}$ to get the final value for the variable "x".

$\mathbf{\dfrac{10x}{10} = \dfrac{10}{10}}$

The numbered values in the numerator and the denominator are the same, on both the sides. This will mean the "x" variable will be left on the left hand side and numbered values "10" will give a product of "1" after the division is done. On the right hand side the numbered values get divided to obtain the final solution for final system of equation for variable "x" as "1".

$\boxed{\mathbf{x = 1}}$

Final solutions for the respective variables in the form of " (x, y, z) " is:

$\boxed{\mathbf{\underline{\Bigg(1, \: \: 3, \: \: - 2 \Bigg)}}}$

Hope it helps.

2) At the store Julie bought a shirt for $23.97, which was 25% off the original price. Which of these should she use to find x,

Scrat [10]

Answer:

0.75x = 23.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The total is 23.97. 0.25% is off so you have to subtracting 25% from 100% and you will get 75% if you convert it to decimal you will get 0.75.
