Answer:

x = -11.88 y = -7.5 z =20

Step-by-step explanation:

8x -6y = -50

-2( 4x -7y = 5 )

8x -6y = -50

-8x +14y = -10

8y= -60

y= -7.5

4x -7(-7.5) = 5

4x + 52.5 = 5

4x = -47.5

x= -11.88

6(-7.5) +3z = 15

-45 +3z = 15

45 45

3z = 60

z= 20

Answer:

x=-5/8, y=15/2, z=-10. (-5/8, 15/2, -10).

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-7y=5

8x+3z=-35

6y+3z=15

----------------

4x=7y+5

2(4x)=2(7y+5)

8x=14y+10

14y+10+3z=-35

14y+3z=-35-10

14y+3z=-45

-----------------------

14y+3z=-45

6y+3z=15

------------------

14y+3z=-45

-(6y+3z)=-15

---------------------

14y+3z=-45

-6y-3z=-15

--------------------

8y=-60

simplify,

y=15/2

6(15/2)+3z=15

45+3z=15

3z=15-45

3z=-30

z=-30/3

z=-10

8x+3(-10)=-35

8x-30=-35

8x=-35+30

8x=-5

x=-5/8

x=-5/8, y=15/2, z=-10.

Express the function as the sum of a power series by first using partial fractions. f(x) = 8 x2 − 4x − 12 f(x) = ∞ n = 0 find th

alexandr1967 [171]

I'm guessing the function is

$f(x)=\dfrac8{x^2-4x-12}=\dfrac8{(x-6)(x+2)}$

which, split into partial fractions, is equivalent to

$\dfrac1{x-6}-\dfrac1{x+2}$

Recall that for $|x|$ we have

$\dfrac1{1-x}=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n$

With some rearranging, we find

$\dfrac1{x-6}=-\dfrac16\dfrac1{1-\frac x6}=\displaystyle-\frac16\sum_{n=0}^\infty\left(\frac x6\right)^n$

valid for $\left|\dfrac x6\right|$ , or $|x|$ , and

$\dfrac1{x+2}=\dfrac12\dfrac1{1-\left(-\frac x2\right)}=\displaystyle\frac12\sum_{n=0}^\infty\left(-\frac x2\right)^n$

valid for $\left|-\dfrac x2\right|$ , or $|x|$ .

So we have

$f(x)=\displaystyle-\frac16\sum_{n=0}^\infty\left(\frac x6\right)^n-\frac12\sum_{n=0}^\infty\left(-\frac x2\right)^n$

$f(x)=\displaystyle-\sum_{n=0}^\infty\left(\frac{x^n}{6^{n+1}}+\frac{(-x)^n}{2^{n+1}}\right)$

$f(x)=\displaystyle-\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{1+3(-3)^n}{6^{n+1}}x^n$

Taken together, the power series for $f(x)$ can only converge for $|x|$ , or $-2$ .

Estimate a 15% tip on a dinner bill of $52.87 by first rounding the bill amount to the nearest ten dollars.

Stels [109]

Answer:

$ 7.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of bill = $52.87 = $52.9

Amount of tip = 15% of $52.9

$= \frac{15}{100} \times 52.9 \\ \\ = 0.15 \times 52.9 \\ = 7.935 \\ = \$ \: 7.9 \\$
