Answer:
x=10 and scale factor is 15/9 or 1 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
FIrst, find scale factor. 9 to 15. Times by 15/9 or 1 2/3.
Find x. 6*1 2/3 = 10
18 = 1a + 2b
That’s the equation for it
Answer:
6 and -4
Step-by-step explanation:
a + b = 2
a - b = 10
Solve:
from the first eq.
a = 2 - b
replacing this value in the second eq.
(2-b) - b = 10
2 - 2b = 10
-2b = 10 - 2
-2b = 8
b = 8/-2
b = -4
from the second eq.
a - b = 10
a - (-4) = 10
a + 4 = 10
a = 10 - 4
a = 6
Check:
from the first eq.
6 + (-4) = 2
6 - 4 = 2
-9×36÷-15×4
-324÷60
-5.4

Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 3y - 2z = 4
[2] x + 3y + 2z = -7
[3] -4x - 4y - 2z = 10
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] x = -3y - 2z - 7
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 2•(-3y-2z-7) - 3y - 2z = 4
[1] - 9y - 6z = 18
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [3]
[3] -4•(-3y-2z-7) - 4y - 2z = 10
[3] 8y + 6z = -18
// Solve equation [3] for the variable z
[3] 6z = -8y - 18
[3] z = -4y/3 - 3
// Plug this in for variable z in equation [1]
[1] - 9y - 6•(-4y/3-3) = 18
[1] - y = 0
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = 0
// By now we know this much :
x = -3y-2z-7
y = 0
z = -4y/3-3
// Use the y value to solve for z
z = -(4/3)(0)-3 = -3
// Use the y and z values to solve for x
x = -3(0)-2(-3)-7 = -1
Solution :
{x,y,z} = {-1,0,-3}
