Answer:

¬(W∨S)→¬(J∨E)

D→(B∨C)

X is true

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotheses  "neither water nor soft drinks can quench your thirst" translates to ¬(W∨S) ("neither nor" negates the disjunction W∨S). The "if,... then" translates to the implication symbol (arrow). The conclusion "juice will not do it, unless the juice contains electrolytes" translates to ¬(J∨E). This is because if J or E were true, then J would be true (because E implies J), contrary to the conclusion that J is false ("juice will not do it"), then J∨S is false.

The hypothesis here is "the dyer breaks" hence D is the hypothesis. The conclusion is "we will hang the clothes to dry, or take the clothes to a coin-operated laundry" which is the same as (B∨C).

The proposition p→p is always true (according to truth tables). In this case, p:=X is true, then p is true and X is true.

X∨Y is false if and only if X is false and Y is false, so both statements X,Y must be false.

21 is 20% of what number
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

21 is 20% of 105

Step-by-step explanation:

20% * x = 21

20/100 * x = 21

x = 21 * 100/20

x = 105

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 21×100÷20, which will give you the answer.

Need help finding the x, y, and z. please and thank you
Reptile [31]

The first step in any problem is to look at what you are given. When solving systems of linear equations, it is often helpful to eliminate one or more of the variables by adding or subtracting a multiple of one equation with a multiple of another. It is convenient when at least one of the multipliers is 1.

Here, we can cancel the y-terms in the 2nd and 3rd equations simply by adding them together. This gives

... (5x +y -4z) +(-3x -y +5z) = (41) +(-45)

... 2x +z = -4 . . . . simplified

Likewise, we can add 3 times the second equation to the first to cancel y in that sum.

... 3(5x +y -4z) +(2x -3y +z) = 3(41) + (-1)

...15x +3y -12z +2x -3y +z = 123 -1

...17x -11z = 122 . . . . simplified

Now that we have 2 equations in x and z, we can go through the same process. We observe that the coefficient of z is +1 in the first equation and -11 in the second. The means we can cancel the z terms by adding 11 times the first equation to the second:

... 11(2x +z) +(17x -11z) = 11(-4) +122

...22x +17x = 78 . . . . . . simplify a little bit

... x = 78/39 = 2 . . . . . . divide by 39

From above, we find

... z = -4 -2x = -4 -2·2 = -8

... y = 41 -5x +4z = 41-5(2) +4(-8) = 41 -42 = -1

The solution is (x, y, z) = (2, -1, -8).

_____

The method of elimination used here will vary with the system of equations. If you want to employ a consistent method, you can use Cramer's Rule, Gaussian elimination, or matrix methods. Since you apparently don't mind help from technology, learning to do this on your graphing calculator can also be a good idea.
