Answer:
First choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
You could plug in the choices to see which would make all the 3 equations true.
Let's start with (x=2,y=-6,z=1):
2x+y-z=-3
2(2)+-6-1=-3
4-6-1=-3
-2-1=-3
-3=-3 is true so the first choice satisfies the first equation.
5x-2y+2z=24
5(2)-2(-6)+2(1)=24
10+12+2=24
24=24 is true so the first choice satisfies the second equation.
3x-z=5
3(2)-1=5
6-1=5
5=5 is true so the first choice satisfies the third equation.
We don't have to go any further since we found the solution.
---------Another way.
Multiply the first equation by 2 and add equation 1 and equation 2 together.
2(2x+y-z=-3)
4x+2y-2z=-6 is the first equation multiplied by 2.
5x-2y+2z=24
----------------------Add the equations together:
9x+0+0=18
9x=18
Divide both sides by 9:
x=18/9
x=2
Using the third equation along with x=2 we can find z.
3x-z=5 with x=2:
3(2)-z=5
6-z=5
Add z on both sides:
6=5+z
Subtract 5 on both sides:
1=z
Now using the first equation along with 2x+y-z=-3 with x=2 and z=1:
2(2)+y-1=-3
4+y-1=-3
3+y=-3
Subtract 3 on both sides:
y=-6
So the solution is (x=2,y=-6,z=1).
4+3-1x22
4+3-22
7-22
-15
So -15 is the answer
-122
sorry if i am wrong but have a good day<3

Answer: p = 0.12*(1.02)^t</h3>
Explanation:
The general exponential growth equation is
p = A*B^t
where t is the number of years that have gone by after 2008, A is the starting amount, B is the growth multiplier, and p is the price t years after 2008
We know that A = 0.12 is the starting price
The value of B is B = 1.02 which is in the form 1+r since 1.02 = 1 + 0.02 = 1+r
The r value is r = 0.02 and it is positive to represent growth. Keep in mind that 2% = 2/100 = 0.02
So we go from
p = A*B^t
to
p = 0.12*(1.02)^t
Communicative prop of multiplication because the numbers are moving
