Answer: x = 7, y = -3, z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

EQ 1: 3x + 4y - z = 8 solve for z

+z -8 +z - 8

3x + 4y - 8 = z

EQ 3: 5x + y - 2z = 30 substitute 3x + 4y - 8 for z and solve for x

5x + y - 2(3x + 4y - 8) = 30

5x + y - 6x - 8y + 16 = 30

-x - 7y + 16 = 30

-16 -16

-x - 7y = 14

+7y +7y

-x = 7y + 14

x = -7y - 14

EQ 2: x - 5y + 2z = 24 substitute 3x+4y - 8 for z and -7y - 14 for x

(-7y - 14) - 5y + 2(3x + 4y - 8) = 24

-7y - 14 - 5y + 6(-7y - 14) + 8y - 16 = 24

-7y - 14 - 5y - 42y - 84 + 8y - 16 = 24

-46y - 114 = 24

+114 +114

-46y = 138

÷-46 ÷-46

y = -3

x = -7y - 14

= -7(-3) - 14

= 21 - 14

= 7

z = 3x + 4y - 8

= 3(7) + 4(-3) - 8

= 21 - 12 - 8

= 1

Rewrite in mathematical language. Every negative integer J is less than or equal to its inverse.

Luda [366]

Answer:

$-J \leq J$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Negative integer J

Required

Represent as an inequality of its inverse

The question didn't state if it's additive inverse or multiplicative inverse;

Since the question has to do with negation, I'll assume it's an additive inverse

The inverse of -J is +J

To represent as an inequality (less than or equal), we have:

$-J \leq +J$

Solving further, it gives

$-J \leq J$

The cross-sectional areas of a right triangular prism and a right cylinder are congruent. The right triangular prism has a heigh

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

The volume of the triangular prism is equal to the volume of the cylinder

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are two figures

1. A right triangular prism and

2. Right cylinder

Area of cross section of prism is equal to Area of cross section of cylinder.

Let this value be A.

Also given that Height of prism = Height of cylinder = 6

Volume of a prism is given as:

$V_{Prism} = \text{Area of cross section} \times Height$

$V_{Prism} = A \times 6 ........ (1)$

Cross section of cylinder is a circle.

Area of circle is given as: $\pi r^{2}$

Area of cross section, A = $\pi r^{2}$

Volume of cylinder is given as:

$V_{Cylinder} = \pi r^{2} h\\\Rightarrow V_{Cylinder} = A \times h\\\Rightarrow V_{Cylinder} = A \times 6 ...... (2)$

From equations (1) and (2) we can see that

$V_{Prism}=V_{Cylinder}$

Hence, the correct answer is:

Volume of prism is equal to the volume of cylinder.

Parallelogram ABCD is a rectangle.

svp [43]

Y = 3 because in a rectangle, the diagonals are ALWAYS congruent. so you would have:
5y - 2 = 4y + 1
-4y+2 -4y + 2
y = 3
