Answer:

  • dependent system
  • x = 2 -a
  • y = 1 +a
  • z = a

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this by eliminating z, then we'll go from there.

Add 6 times the second equation to the first.

  (3x -3y +6z) +6(x +2y -z) = (3) +6(4)

  9x +9y = 27 . . . simplify

  x + y = 3 . . . . . . divide by 9 [eq4]

Add 13 times the second equation to the third.

  (5x -8y +13z) +13(x +2y -z) = (2) +13(4)

  18x +18y = 54

  x + y = 3 . . . . . . divide by 18 [eq5]

Equations [eq4] and [eq5] are identical. This tells us the system is dependent, and has an infinite number of solutions. We can find them in terms of z:

  y = 3 -x . . . . solve eq5 for y

  x +2(3 -x) -z = 4 . . . . substitute into the second equation

  -x +6 -z = 4

  x = 2 - z . . . . . . add x-4

  y = 3 -(2 -z)

  y = z +1

So far, we have written the solutions in terms of z. If we use the parameter "a", we can write the solutions as ...

  x = 2 -a

  y = 1 +a

  z = a

_____

<em>Check</em>

First equation:

  3(2-a) -3(a+1) +6a = 3

  6 -3a -3a -3 +6a = 3 . . . true

Second equation:

  (2-a) +2(a+1) -a = 4

  2 -a +2a +2 -a = 4 . . . true

Third equation:

  5(2-a) -8(a+1) +13a = 2

  10 -5a -8a -8 +13a = 2 . . . true

Our solution checks algebraically.

4. The student council sold flowers for the Sweetheart dance as a fundraising
vekshin1

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total flowers sold = 200

Flowers are :

Carnations, Roses, and Gerber daisies

Carnations = c

Roses = r

Daisies = d

20 fewer roses than daisies ; r = d - 20

Total sales = $453

c = $1.50 each ; r = 3.75 each ; d = 2.25 each

c + d + d - 20 = 200

c + 2d = 220 - - (1)

1.50c + (d - 20)(3.75) + 2.25d = 453

1.50c + 3.75d - 75 + 2.25d = 453

1.50c + 6d = 528 - - - (2)

From (1)

c = 220 - 2d

1.5(220 - 2d) + 6d = 528

330 - 3d + 6d = 528

330 + 3d = 528

3d = 528 - 330

d = 198/3

d = 66

66 × 2.25 = $148.5

c = 220 - 2(66)

c = 88

88 * 1.50 = $132

r = d - 20

r = 66 - 20

r = 46

46 × $3.75 = $172.5
