A fraction is a number that represents part of a whole. It is consisted of a numerator and a denominator. The numerator represents the number of equal parts and the denominator represents the total amount of parts that make up a whole. For example 2/5, the numerator is 2 and the denominator is 5.

Linar system in variables<br> -x-3y-2z=8,<br> -x+y+6z=, <br> x-9y-2z=4
docker41 [41]

Answer:

-x+y+6z=? You did not spcify so I just made it 0

x = -22/5, y = -4/5, z = -3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

-x + y + 6 z = 0 | (equation 2)

x - 9 y - 2 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+4 y + 8 z = -8 | (equation 2)

x - 9 y - 2 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 4:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 2)

x - 9 y - 2 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 2)

0 x - 12 y - 4 z = 12 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 3 by 4:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 2)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 3)

Add 1/3 × (equation 2) to equation 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+(5 z)/3 = -1 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+5 z = -3 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 3 by 5:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Add equation 3 to equation 2:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y+0 z = 12/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by -3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Add 3 × (equation 2) to equation 1:

{-x + 0 y - 2 z = 28/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Add 2 × (equation 3) to equation 1:

{-x+0 y+0 z = 22/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 1 by -1:

{x+0 y+0 z = -22/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = -22/5, y = -4/5, z = -3/5

Please answer! will give 5 stars, brainliest (if two people answer.), 20 pts, and thanks.
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 2 and 4 are supplementary, so if angle 4 is 123, then 180-123=57.

So angle 2 is 57.

Then, if angle 2 and 3 are 57 and we know that all angles of a triangle have to add up to 180, then:

                             57+57+angle 1=180

                                114+ angle 1=180

                                        angle 1= 66

A class of 24 students went on a picnic. They had a choice between having a turkey sandwich or a vegetarian sandwich. Eighteen s
Alekssandra [29.7K]

I believe it is the ratio 3 : 1.

<u>18 students chose the turkey sandwich</u>.

Since the class has a total of 24 students, we can deduce that <u>6 students chose the vegetarian sandwich</u>.

This gives us a ratio of 18 : 6.

When simplified, we get a ratio of 3 : 1.

The sum of a number times 8 and 21 is less than -16.
vodka [1.7K]

Hello.

First of all, let the number be t.

8 times t can be written like this:

\mathrm{8t}

Notice that the number is before the variable and the times sign (×) is not there.

We can write it as 8×t, but we usually write it as 8t.

The sum of means we add:

8t+21

Now, "less than" is "<" :

\mathrm{8t+21 < -16}

Therefore, the answer is

\mathrm{8t+21 < -16}

I hope it helps.

Have a nice day.
