If zero bus stops is an option, then it would be whole numbers. If the number of stops is greater than zero, it would be natural numbers.

whole numbers- whole numbers are the numbers that does not have any fraction or negative numbers. Whole number start with 0. they are 0,1,2,3,4,......

natural numbers- natural numbers are the set of positive numbers. 1,2,3,4....

integers - Integers are similar to whole number but we include negative numbers as well. ........-1,0,1,2,......

irrational numbers- irrational numbers are all real numbers that are not rational. \sqrt{2} , \pi....

The number of stops a bus makes on a certain day is represented by the variable s

Number of stops a bus make cannot be a negative number or irrational number.

WE can consider 0 stops as well.

So it belongs to whole number

Whole numbers best describes the value of the variable

Solve the system of equations.
Xelga [282]

Answer:

  b.  x=1, y=2, z=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations ...

  • 3x +2y +z = 10
  • 9x -6y +z = 0
  • x -y -3z = -10

has solution (x, y, z) = (1, 2, 3) . . . . matches choice B.

_____

While it is convenient to solve this using a graphing calculator or web site, one can easily solve the system by hand.

Subtract the second equation from 3 times the first:

  3(3x +2y +z) -(9x -6y +z) = 3(10) -(0)

  12y + 2z = 30 . . . . simplify

Dividing this result by 2 gives ...

  6y +z = 15 . . . . . . [eq4]

Subtract 3 times the third equation from the first:

  (3x +2y +z) -3(x -y -3z) = (10) -3(-10)

  5y +10z = 40 . . . . simplify

  y + 2z = 8 . . . . . . . divide by 5 . . . . . [eq5]

The two equations [eq4] and [eq5] can be solved any of the ways you usually solve two equations in two variables. Here, we'll use the first equation to write an expression for z that we can substitute into the second equation.

  z = 15 -6y . . . . . subtract 6y from [eq4]

  y + 2(15 -6y) = 8 . . . . . substitute for z in [eq5]

  -11y +30 = 8 . . . . . simplify

  -11y = -22 . . . . . . . subtract 30

  y = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

  z = 15 -6(2) = 3 . . . . substitute for y in our equation for z

Substituting these values for y and z into the third original equation gives ...

  x - 2 -3(3) = -10

  x -11 = -10 . . . . . . . . simplify

  x = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 11

The solution to the above system of equations is (x, y, z) = (1, 2, 3).

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

Math is generally unforgiving of imprecision. The given system of equations has no variable "z", and some other typos are apparently involved. That is why we rewrote the system to the equations shown above.

It is very easy to mistake z for 2, or g for 9, or o for 0, or 1 for 7. There are other confusions that are possible, as well. Letters I (eye) and l (ell) are easily confused, and may be confused with 1 (one) as well. Sometimes y and 4, or 4 and 9, can also be written so as to be difficult to tell apart. Great care must be taken when handwriting these symbols.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

y - 1 = -(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m = (5-1)/(-2-2) = 4/-4 = -1

Using any one coordinate, construct

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = -1(x - 2)
