The three numbers are 56/5, -39/5 and 78/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>EQUATION 1:</u>

First number: x

Second number: y

Third number: z

x + y + z = 19

<u>EQUATION 2:</u>

Sum of following is 77

Twice the first number: 2x

5 times the second number: 5y

6 times the third number: 6z

So, 2x + 5y + 6z = 77

<u>EQUATION 3:</u>

Difference between first and second number is 19.

x - y = 19

Equation 1: x + y + z = 19

Equation 2: 2x + 5y + 6z = 77

Equation 3: x - y = 19

1. Find x in terms of y

 x - y = 19

 x = 19 + y

2. Find y in terms of z by putting the value of x in first and second equation

   x + y + z = 19

   (19 + y)+ y + z = 19

   2y + z = 19 - 19

   2y + z = 0

   y = -z/2

and

2(19+y)+5y+6z=77

now putting the value of y in this equation

2(19-z/2)+5(-z/2)+6z=77

38 - z -5z/2 +6z = 77

5z/2 + 38 = 77

5z/2 = 39

z = 78/5

Now, y = -z/2

y = (-78/5)/2

y = -39/5

and  x = 19 + y

x = 19 - 39/5

x = 56/5

Therefore, the three numbers are 56/5, -39/5 and 78/5.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP <br><br> Determine the slope of each line:
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

a=(2/5), b = (-2,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

well slope formula is rise/run. So for the first one you start at the point  rise 2 run 5 and you reach the endpoint. That is how you know you got the correct slope.  (2/5)

For the second one you start at the first point and you cannot go up because it is a negative slope you run 6 till you hit the other point go down 2. Since you go down 2 that would make it -2.  (-2,6)

Help me with this question
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The answer is y=-x+9.

The first thing to do is find where the line intercepts the y-axis, which is at positive 9 so you'll add a +9 to the end of your equation. Next you find the slope and since it's going down left to right, you know it is a negative. Now slope is found by change in y divided by change in x. And since both change and y and change in x are both 1, 1/1 is 1. And since you know it's negative that means the slope is -x. Altogether you get y= -x+9

I need it by tmr<br> ill give brainliest thx
Zina [86]

Answer:

21. B. Graph Z

23. A. neither function nor relation

24. D. relation only

Step-by-step explanation:

21. Graph Z is the only graph which does not pass the vertical line test

23. The graph does not pass the vertical line test, AND it is not merely given x and y points like a relation. It is graphed as a squiggly line with no given x and y points, therefore you could not make a relation from it either.

24. There is an x value of -4 twice, meaning the set does not pass the vertical line test, HOWEVER, it is a given collection of x and y values, making it a relation.

I would appreciate brainliest, have an amazing day
