No, you got the inequalities the wrong way.
In negative numbers, it is how much lower it is than 0. For example, -22 is 22 less than 0. And -2 is 2 less than 0. Here, -22 is actually less than -2 because it is farther below 0 than -2.
You can understand this better if you graph it on a number line.
So, -12 >-15. (-15 is 3 less than -12).
-1/3 >-1.
-2>-21.

Answer:

(5,2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+4y+2z = -3

2x-4y-z=0

y = 3x-13


Multiply the second equation by 2

2*(2x-4y-z)=0*2

4x -8y -2z =0

Add this to the first equation to eliminate z

-3x+4y+2z = -3

4x -8y -2z =0

-------------------------

x -4y = -3

Take the third equation and substitute it in for y

x - 4(3x-13) = -3

Distribute the 4

x - 12x +52 = -3

Combine like terms

-11x +52 = -3

Subtract 52 from each side

-11x +52-52 = -3-52

-11x = -55

Divide by -11

-11x/-11 = -55/-11

x=5

Now we can solve for y

y =3x-13

y =3*5 -13

y = 15-13

y=2

Now we need to find z

2x-4y-z=0

2(5) -4(2) -z=0

10-8 -z=0

2-z=0

Add z to each side

2-z+z= 0+z

2=z

x=5, y=2, z=2

A plane flies 720 miles with the wind in 3 hours. The return trip against the wind takes 4 hours. What is the speed of the wind
Mandarinka [93]
Let p and w represent the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, respectively.
.. speed = distance/time
.. p +w = 720/3 = 240
.. p -w = 720/4 = 180

Add the two equations to eliminate w.
.. 2p = 420
.. p = 210
.. w = p -180 = 30

The speed of the wind is 30 mph.
The speed of the plane in still air is 210 mph.
