Sides of first rectangle are 12 inches and 6 inches

and sides of second rectangle are 10 inches and 5 inches

So to find the ration of sides we can do

Ratio of bases = 12/10 = 6/5

Ratio of altitudes = 6/5

Area of first rectangle = base * altitude = 12 *6 = 72 square inches

X+y+z=1
andrezito [222]

Answer: x = 0

y = 2

z = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations are

x+y+z=1 - - - - - - - - - - 1

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

-x+3y-5z=11 - - - - - - - - - 3

Step 1

We would eliminate x by adding equation 1 to equation 3. It becomes

4y -4z = 12 - - - - - - - - - 4

Step 2

We would multiply equation 1 by 2. It becomes

2x + 2y + 2z = 2 - - - - - - - - - 5

We would add equation 2 and equation 5. It becomes

6y + 8z = 4 - - - - - - - - - 6

Step 3

We would multiply equation 4 by 6 and equation 6 by 4. It becomes

24y - 24z = 72 - - - - - - - - 7

24y + 32z = 16 - - - - - - - - 8

We would subtract equation 8 from equation 7. It becomes

-56z = 56

z = -56/56 = -1

Substituting z = -1 into 7, it becomes

24y - 24×-1 = 72

24y + 24 = 72

24y = 72 - 24 = 48

y = 48/24 = 2

Substituting y = 2 and z = -1 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 2 - 1 = 1

x = 1 - 1 = 0

Find the value of Q in the following system so that the solution to the system is {(x,y) : x-3y=4}
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Q=2

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

the solution to the system is

{(x,y) : x-3y=4} means infinty solution

X-3y=4 ....(*)

Qx-6y=8....(**)

multiply  (*) by -2

-2x+6y = -8 (***)

add (*) and (***) : (Q-2)x =0

this ie true for reals x when  Q=2

B. The sum of three numbers is 51. The second number is three more than the first number, and the third number is
Svetach [21]

Answer:

12, 15, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 1st # = x

Let 2nd # = x+3

Let 3rd # = 2x

Your equation is: x + (x+3) + 2x = 51

Add up all the x: x + x +3 +2x =51

Subtract 3 from both sides: 4x + 3 - 3 = 51 - 3

Divide 4 from both sides: 4x / 4 = 48 / 4

Your 1st number is x = 12

For the 2nd # it is 3 more than x so 12 + 3 = 15

For the 3rd # it is 2 times x so 2(12) = 24

Check your answers by adding up the numbers you solved: 12 + 15 +24 = 51

Does it equal to 51 as stated in the question? Yes, answers check out.
