Mathematics
1 answer:
scZoUnD [109]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

{x = -4 , y = 2 ,  z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-2 x + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

2 x - 4 y + z = -15 | (equation 2)

y + 4 z = 6 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 2:

{-(2 x) + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y + 3 z = -3 | (equation 2)

0 x+y + 4 z = 6 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 3:

{-(2 x) + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

0 x - y + z = -1 | (equation 2)

0 x+y + 4 z = 6 | (equation 3)

Add equation 2 to equation 3:

{-(2 x) + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

0 x - y + z = -1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+5 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 3 by 5:

{-(2 x) + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

0 x - y + z = -1 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 1 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 3 from equation 2:

{-(2 x) + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

0 x - y+0 z = -2 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 1 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:

{-(2 x) + y + 2 z = 12 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 2 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 1 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

{-(2 x) + 0 y+2 z = 10 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 2 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 1 | (equation 3)

Subtract 2 × (equation 3) from equation 1:

{-(2 x)+0 y+0 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 2 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 1 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by -2:

{x+0 y+0 z = -4 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = 2 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = 1 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer:  {x = -4 , y = 2 ,  z = 1

First, some defintions
reciprocals are like a/b and b/a or 5/1 and 1/5

remember, \frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=(\frac{a}{b})(\frac{d}{c})=\frac{ad}{bc}

john's fraction is reciprocal of sarah's
john=a/b
sarah=b/a

david multiplies his by sarah and gets 12/35
(b/a)(david)=12/35

multplies his number by john and gets 12/35
(a/b)(david)=15/7

hmmm

(b/a)(david)=12/35 and
(a/b)(david)=15/7

if we divide them then we do
\frac{(\frac{b}{a})(david)}{(\frac{a}{b})(david)}=\frac{\frac{12}{35}}{\frac{15}{7}}=
\frac{\frac{b}{a}}{\frac{a}{b}}=\frac{\frac{12}{35}}{\frac{15}{7}}=
(\frac{b}{a})(\frac{b}{a})=(\frac{12}{35})(\frac{7}{15})=
\frac{b^2}{a^2}=\frac{84}{525}=
\frac{b^2}{a^2}=\frac{4}{25}
square root both sides
\frac{b}{a}=\frac{2}{5}

therefor
b=2 and a=5

john's number is a/b=5/2
sarah's number is 2/5

david, hmm

sarah times david=12/35
2/5 times david=12/35
times both sides by 5/2
david=60/70
david=6/7

check other

john times david=15/7
5/2 times 6/7=15/7
30/14=15/7
15/7=15/7
true





sarah's favorite number is 2/5
john's favorite number is 5/2
david's favorite number is 6/7
