The given matrix equation is,
.
Multiplying the matrices with the scalars, the given equation becomes,
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}1.5x&9\\12&6\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{cc}y&4y\\3y&2y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{cc}z&z\\6z&2\end{array}\right] \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1.5x%269%5C%5C12%266%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%2B%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Dy%264y%5C%5C3y%262y%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Dz%26z%5C%5C6z%262%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20%5C%5C%20%20)
Adding the matrices,
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}1.5x+y&9+4y\\12+3y&6+2y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{cc}z&z\\6z&2\end{array}\right] \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1.5x%2By%269%2B4y%5C%5C12%2B3y%266%2B2y%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Dz%26z%5C%5C6z%262%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20%5C%5C%20)
Matrix equality gives,

Solving the equations together,

We can see that the equations are not consistent.
There is no solution.
Answer:
The answer is True because CPCTC stands for Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.
Carey earns c hourly
Anderson earns $6 hourly which is also 1+ c/2
So, 6=1+c/2
12=2+c
c=$10
<span>Carey earns $10 hourly</span>
Ratio 1:2:3 means we have x, 2x and 3x as the three parts
x+2x+3x = 42
6x = 42
6x/6 = 42/6
x = 7
Since x = 7, this means 2x = 2*7 = 14 and 3x = 3*7 = 21
Dividing 42 into the ratio of 1:2:3 means we have 7:14:21 as the answer
If we divide all three parts of 7:14:21 by the GCF 7, we reduce it down to 1:2:3
As a check,
7+14+21 = 21+21 = 42
so it works out
No correlation I believe.
