Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system

$y=5x-1\\y=-3x+7$

To solve the system, equate both equations and solve for the variable x.

$5x-1= -3x+7\\\\5x + 3x = 7 +1\\\\8x = 8\\\\x=1$

Now substitute the value of x in any of the two equations and solve for the variable y.

$y=5(1)-1$

$y=4$

Finally the system of equations has one solution

Rewrite the system of linear equations as a matrix equation AX = B.

Answer:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&5\\1&1&1\\4&6&5\end{array}\right]*\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x1\\x2\\x3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5\\6\\7\end{array}\right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer.

Because we have 3 equations and 3 variables (x1, x2, x3) a 3x3 matrix (A) can be constructed by using their respectively coefficients.

Equations:

Eq. 1 : x1 + 2x2 + 5x3 = 5

Eq. 2 : x1 + x2 + x3 = 6

E1. 3 : 4x1 + 6x2 + 5x3 = 7

Coefficients for x1 ; x2 ; x3

From eq. 1 : 1 ; 2 ; 5

From eq. 2 : 1 ; 1 ; 1

From eq. 3 : 4 ; 6 ; 5

So matrix A is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&5\\1&1&1\\4&6&5\end{array}\right]$

And the vector of vriables (X) is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x1\\x2\\x3\end{array}\right]$

Now we can find the resulting vector (B) using the 'resulting values' from each equation:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5\\6\\7\end{array}\right]$

In conclusion, AX=B is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&5\\1&1&1\\4&6&5\end{array}\right]*\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x1\\x2\\x3\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5\\6\\7\end{array}\right]$

Which ratio is equivalent to 9/36

balandron [24]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the GCF. List out the factors of the numerator and the denominator. 1, 3, 9 are the factors of 9, while 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36 are the factors of 36. 9 is a common factor of both of them, so the GCF is 9.

Step 2: Divide the numerator and denominator by 9 (the GCF). 9/9 is 1. 36/9 is 4. This means that our fraction is 1/4. The fraction is in simplest form.
