Answer: x= -1, z=2, y= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations:
-5x - 4y - 3z= 15 +
<u>-10x + 4y + 6z= 6</u>
-15x + 3z = 21 ------> 3 (-5x + z) = 7.3
-5x + z = 7
now,
-10x + 4y + 6z= 6
2(-5x + z) + 4y + 4z = 6
14 + 4y + 4z = 6
7 + 2y + 2z = 3
2y + 2z= -4
y+z=-2
Now we were using the equation: 20x + 4y + 4z = -28
20x + 4(y+z) = 20x -8= - 28
20 x = -20
x= -1
With this we can find y and z
X=-1
-5x + z = 7
z= 2
y+z=-2
y=-4
Finally we have: x= -1, z=2, y= -4
I hope this can help you.
Thank you
let length of one piece = x
length of other piece = 236-x
one piece is three times the length of the other
x=3(236-x)
x=708-3x
4x=708
x=177
so first piece is 177 inches long and second piece is (236-177)= 59 inches long
It would be 7.5ft by 30ft
Because I just multiplied 12 by 5/2 which is 30
Then I multiplied 3 by 5/2 which is 7.5
You times the x and y by 3 good luck
