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.

Stan pays a 10% deposit to put a pool table on lay-by.
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

$1431

Step-by-step explanation:

If Stan pays a 10% deposit, he pays $159. 10% of $1590 is simply 0.1 * 1590 = 159. Assuming this is the only amount he pays, he then simply needs to pay the full price minus $159. We can find this by simply subtracting 159 from 1590 to get 1431. Stan still needs to pay $1431.

Answer:

x = -10

y = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(y + 3) + 4y = 8

-6y - 18 + 4y = 8

-2y - 18 = 8

    + 18     + 18

-2y (÷ -2) = 26 (÷ -2)

y = -13

x = -13 + 3

x = -10

4. Entomologists introduce 20 of one
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

This number can be found using the Rule of 70, which describes the formula dt = 70 / r, where dt is the doubling time, and r is the annual rate of growth.

Step-by-step explanation:

24/6 = 4

20 x 2 = 40 x 2 = 80 x 2 = 160 x 2 = 320

20 ---> 320 in the first day.

Keep doing this equation. Multiply each day's end result by 2 four times for 9 more days.
