X+y+z=51

y=2z
z=9+x

subsitute those

x+2z+9+x=51
x+2(9+x)+9+x=51
x+18+2x+9+x=51
4x+27=51
minus 27 both sides
4x=24
divide by 4
x=6

sub back

z=9+x
z=9+6
z=15

y=2z
y=2(15)
y=30

the numbers are
6,30,15

<u>1. Write Out Equation Using Giving Info:
</u><u />x + 2x + x + 9 = 51
<u>2. Combine Like Terms:</u>
4x + 9 = 51
<u>3. Evaluate for X:

<u>4. Divide both sides by 4:
</u><u />x = 10.5

First: 10.5, Second: 39, Third: 19.5

Find all numbers whose absolute value is – 3.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

remember that |x|=x if x\geq0 and |x|=-x \; \text{ if } x\leq 0. This means that |x| always is a positive number.

Then, there are no numbers such that |x|=-3 because -3 is a negative number.
