Answer:

x = -3 , y = 4 , z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{x - 3 y + z = -15

2 x + y - z = -2

x + y + 2 z = 1

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the first equation, look to solve for z:

{x - 3 y + z = -15

2 x + y - z = -2

x + y + 2 z = 1

Hint: | Solve for z.

Subtract x - 3 y from both sides:

{z = 3 y + (-x - 15)

2 x + y - z = -2

x + y + 2 z = 1

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute z = -15 - x + 3 y into the second and third equations:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

15 + 3 x - 2 y = -2

x + y + 2 (-15 - x + 3 y) = 1

Hint: | Expand the left hand side of the equation x + y + 2 (-15 - x + 3 y) = 1.

x + y + 2 (-15 - x + 3 y) = x + y + (-30 - 2 x + 6 y) = -30 - x + 7 y:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

15 + 3 x - 2 y = -2

-30 - x + 7 y = 1

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

15 + 3 x - 2 y = -2

-30 - x + 7 y = 1

Hint: | Isolate terms with x to the left hand side.

Subtract 15 - 2 y from both sides:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

3 x = 2 y - 17

-30 - x + 7 y = 1

Hint: | Solve for x.

Divide both sides by 3:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

x = (2 y)/3 - 17/3

-30 - x + 7 y = 1

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute x = (2 y)/3 - 17/3 into the third equation:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

x = (2 y)/3 - 17/3

(19 y)/3 - 73/3 = 1

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the third equation, look to solve for y:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

x = (2 y)/3 - 17/3

(19 y)/3 - 73/3 = 1

Hint: | Isolate terms with y to the left hand side.

Add 73/3 to both sides:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

x = (2 y)/3 - 17/3

(19 y)/3 = 76/3

Hint: | Solve for y.

Multiply both sides by 3/19:

{z = -15 - x + 3 y

x = (2 y)/3 - 17/3

y = 4

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute y = 4 into the first and second equations:

{z = -x - 3

x = -3

y = 4

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute x = -3 into the first equation:

{z = 0

x = -3

y = 4

Hint: | Sort results.

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer:  {x = -3 , y = 4 , z = 0

Describe how the circumference and the diameter of a circle are related.
Readme [11.4K]
The circumference of a circle is the distance around the outside of the circle. The diameter is the distance across the circle. It must pass through the center or the circle. For any circle, regardless of diameter, there is a consistent ratio between the circle's circumference and the length of its diameter.

Please factorise the equations in the doc bellow ASAP. please show full working
ad-work [718]

Answer:

b. x² + 8x + 12 =

1. use the factoring X (see attachment)

2. 6 x 2 = 12; 6 + 2 = 12

3. (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0

4. x = -6, -2

c. x² + 13x + 12 =

1. 12 x 1 = 12; 12 + 1 = 13

2. (x + 12)(x + 1) = 0

3. x = -12, -1

c. x² + x - 12 =

1. 4 · (-3) = -12; 4 - 3 = 1

2. (x +4)(x - 3) = 0

3. x = -4, 3

f. x² + 15x + 36 =

1. 12 x 3 = 36; 12 + 3 = 15

2. (x + 12)(x + 3) = 0

3. x = -12, -3

hope this helps :)

The time to fly between New York City and Chicago is uniformly distributed with a minimum of 120 minutes and a maximum of 150 mi
lara [203]

Answer:

a) 33.33%)

b) 135 minutes

c) 8.66 min

d) 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the probability for a uniform distribution is

P(b<X<a) = (a-b)/(c-d) , where c and d are the maximum and minimum values

therefore the probability that the flight is more than 140 minutes ( and less than 150 since it is the maximum value)

P(140<X<150) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (150-140)/(150-120) = 10/30 = 1/3 (33.33%)

b) the mean (expected value) for a uniform probability distribution is

E(X) = (c+d)/2 = (120+150)/2 = 135 minutes

c)  the standard deviation for a uniform probability distribution is

σ²(X)= (c-d)²/12 = (150-120)²/12 = 75 min²

σ = √75 min² = 8.66 min

b) following the same procedure as in a)

P(120<X<135) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (135-120)/(150-120) = 15/30 = 1/2 (50%)
