Answer:
The solutions for the given system of equations are:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation system:

We obtain the following matrix:
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}3&1&4&-3\\-1&1&4&17\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D3%261%264%26-3%5C%5C-1%261%264%2617%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
<u>Step 1:</u> Multiply the fisrt row by 1/3.
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&\frac{1}{3} &\frac{4}{3}&-1\\-1&1&4&17\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%20%26%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B3%7D%26-1%5C%5C-1%261%264%2617%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
<u>Step 2:</u> Sum the first row and the second row.
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&\frac{1}{3} &\frac{4}{3}&-1\\0&\frac{4}{3} &\frac{16}{3}&16\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%20%26%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B3%7D%26-1%5C%5C0%26%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B3%7D%20%26%5Cfrac%7B16%7D%7B3%7D%2616%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
<u>Step 3:</u> Multiply the second row by 3/4.
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&\frac{1}{3} &\frac{4}{3}&-1\\0&1 &4&12\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%26%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%20%26%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B3%7D%26-1%5C%5C0%261%20%264%2612%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
<u>Step 4:</u> Multiply the second row by -1/3 and sum the the first row.
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0 &0&-5\\0&1 &4&12\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7D1%260%20%260%26-5%5C%5C0%261%20%264%2612%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The result of the reduced matrix is:

This is equal to:

These are the solutions for the system of equations in terms of z, where z can be any number.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
$15 rental fee added to the 12.75 per hour. you have to multiply the 12.75 times the amount of hours rented, which we don't know yet so that's variable x. then he has only $45 to spend so it has to be equal to or less than that.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer: $42.56
Step-by-step explanation:
Percent discount in department store = 38% 
The regular price of suit = $112. 
Price taken off the regular price of the suit = 
38% of $112
So, 38% of $112
= (38/100) x $112
= 0.38 x $112
= $42.56 
(i.e the customer will pay $112 - $42.56 = $69.44 only for the suit) 
Thus, the price taken off the regular price of the suit is $42.56
 
        
             
        
        
        
The three slices are each approximately 1/9 pound in weight, and, since 2/9 is less than 1/4, he can eat 2 whole slices and be okay. If he wants to eat partial slices, then he could eat 2 1/4 slices, as each slice weighs 4/36 pounds, so 2 slices would equal 8/36 pounds, leaving 1/36 pound left over in his diet, which is a quarter of the third slice.
