Answer:

The solution of the system of linear equations is x=3, y=4, z=1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system of linear equations:

2x+3y-6z=12\\x-2y+3z=-2\\3x+y=13

Gauss-Jordan elimination method is the process of performing row operations to transform any matrix into reduced row-echelon form.

The first step is to transform the system of linear equations into the matrix form. A system of linear equations can be represented in matrix form (Ax=b) using a coefficient matrix (A), a variable matrix (x), and a constant matrix(b).

From the system of linear equations that we have, the coefficient matrix is

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&3&-6\\1&-2&3\\3&1&0\end{array}\right]

the variable matrix is

\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y&z\end{array}\right]

and the constant matrix is

\left[\begin{array}{c}12&-2&13\end{array}\right]

We also need the augmented matrix, this matrix is the result of joining the columns of the coefficient matrix and the constant matrix divided by a vertical bar, so

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}2&3&-6&12\\1&-2&3&-2\\3&1&0&13\end{array}\right]

To transform the augmented matrix to reduced row-echelon form we need to follow these row operations:

  • multiply the 1st row by 1/2

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\1&-2&3&-2\\3&1&0&13\end{array}\right]

  • add -1 times the 1st row to the 2nd row

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\0&-7/2&6&-8\\3&1&0&13\end{array}\right]

  • add -3 times the 1st row to the 3rd row

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\0&-7/2&6&-8\\0&-7/2&9&-5\end{array}\right]

  • multiply the 2nd row by -2/7

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\0&1&-12/7&16/7\\0&-7/2&9&-5\end{array}\right]

  • add 7/2 times the 2nd row to the 3rd row

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\0&1&-12/7&16/7\\0&0&3&3\end{array}\right]

  • multiply the 3rd row by 1/3

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\0&1&-12/7&16/7\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

  • add 12/7 times the 3rd row to the 2nd row

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&-3&6\\0&1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

  • add 3 times the 3rd row to the 1st row

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&3/2&0&9\\0&1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

  • add -3/2 times the 2nd row to the 1st row

\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&3\\0&1&0&4\\0&0&1&1\end{array}\right]

From the reduced row echelon form we have that

x=3\\y=4\\z=1

Since every column in the coefficient part of the matrix has a leading entry that means our system has a unique solution.

Which of the following is equal to the opposite of −45? −(−45) −45 −|−45| −|45|
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

-(-45) and -|45|

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite of a number can also me termed the conjugate of such number. For example, the conjugate (opposite) of a is -a.

Also any value in the modulus sign can either be a negative or positive value. For example |a| can be +a or -a.

According to the question, we are to find the numbers that are equivalent to opposite of -45 i.e which of them are conjugate of -45.

To do this, we are to select the values in the options that will return +45.

Let's look at each option.

For -(-45):

Since the product of two negative sign will give a positive(+), then -(-45) = +45 and hence the value is opposite of -45

For -45:

-45 is a negative value and can never be positive since 45 is not inside a modulus sign. Hence, -45 is not equal to opposite of -45.

For −|−45|, |-45| can only return a positive value since -45 is already in a modulus sign. What the modulus sign will do is convert it to positive value i.e |-45| = 45. Hence -|-45| ≈ -(45) which is not also equivalent to the opposite of-45.

For -|45|:

The value inside modules will return both +45 and -45, hence it can be written as -|45| = -(-45) = +45. This shows that -|45| is also equivalent to the opposite of -45.

working together 9 friends pick up 23 2/5 bags of apples and an orchard they divide the bags of apples equally between them how
Citrus2011 [14]
Simply divide 23 and 2/5 bags of apples between 9 friends:

23 and 2/5 bags ÷ 9 friends= 117/5 bags ÷ 9 friends
                                              =  13/5 bags
                                              = 2 and 3/5 bags

Therefore, each friend receives 2 and 3/5 bags of apples.

Hope this helps!
