Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(3 * 3 * 3 ) = 27 - 3 = 24
8 * 3 = 24
x = 3
Answer:
he made the mistake on step one, he didn't distribute correctly
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x-1) = -5x +5
not -5x - 1
C. 3/2 divided by 3
Alina has 3/2 hours to complete her homework. She should divide her 3/2 hours by the 3 assignments to determine how much time she will spend on each assignment. This turns out to be 1/2 hours, or 30 minutes, on each assignment. 3/2 hours is the same thing as 90 minutes, so this answer makes sense. We want the time to be divided by the number of assignments, not vice versa.
-2y + 5z = -3
y = -5x - 4z - 5
x = 4z + 4
-2(-5(4z + 4) - 4z - 5) + 5z = -3
-2(-20z - 20 - 4z - 5) + 5z = -3
-2(-20z - 4z - 20 - 5) + 5z = -3
-2(-24z - 25) = -3
48z + 50 = -3
<u> - 50 - 50</u>
<u>48z</u> = <u>-53</u>
48 48
z = -1⁵/₄₈
x = 4(-1⁵/₄₈) + 4
x = -4⁵/₁₂ + 4
x = ⁵/₁₂
y = -5(⁵/₁₂) - 4(-1⁵/₄₈) - 5
y = -2¹/₂ + 4⁵/₁₂ - 5
y = 1¹¹/₁₂ - 5
y = -3¹/₂
(x, y, z) = (⁵/₁₂, -3¹/₂, -1⁵/₄₈)
