To answer this item, we express the y in the first equation in terms of the other variables. This is,
     y = 7 + z - 2x
Then, substitute the y's in the second and third equation with that of the expression derived in the first equation.

(2)   -x - 2(7 + z - 2x) + 4z = -15

Simplifying,
       -x - 14 -2z + 4x + 4z = -15

Simplifying further,
     3x + 2z = -1

(3) x + 2(7 + z - 2x) - 5x = 17

Simplifying,
     x + 14 + 2z - 4x - 5x = 17

Simplifying further,
    -3x - 3z = 3

The equations derived are,
    3x  + 2z = -1
      x + z = -1

The values of x and z in the equation are 1 and -2, respectively. To solve for y,

    y = 7 + (-2) - 2(1) = 3


ANSWERS: x = 1, y = 3, and z = -2

Find the exact value of cos 120° in simplest form with a rational<br> denominator.
IRINA_888 [86]

Given:

cos 120°

To find:

The exact value of cos 120° in simplest form with a rational  denominator.

Solution:

We have,

\cos 120^\circ

It can be written as

\cos 120^\circ=\cos (90^\circ+30^\circ)

\cos 120^\circ=-\sin 30^\circ             [\because \cos (90^\circ-\theta)=-\sin \theta]

\cos 120^\circ=-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)             [\because \sin 30^\circ=\dfrac{1}{2}]

\cos 120^\circ=-\dfrac{1}{2}

Therefore, the exact value of cos 120° is -\dfrac{1}{2}.

What is 7 2/10 as a decimal
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
When changing fractions into decimals the whole number goes before the period and the fraction goes after.The denominator of the fraction will tell you whether or not you need to put any zeros before the numerator. If the denominator is 10 zeros are not needed.The end result is 7.2 and can be read as seven tenths.
