FOR 100 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!<br><br>Solve the equation. <br><br><br>3(4x + 4) = 2(5x + 9) - 12
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

<h3>X=-3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x on one side of the equation.

<u><em>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY</em></u>

A(B+C)=AB+AC

A(B-C)=AB-AC

3(4x+4) (First, expand.)

3*4x=12x

3*4=12

12x+12

2(5x+9)-12

2*5x=10x

2*9=18

10x+18

18-12=6

12x+12=10x+6

12x+12-12=10x+6-12 (Subtract 12 from both sides.)

6-12 (Solve.)

12-6=6

12x=10x-6

12x-10x=10x-6-10x (Subtract 10x from both sides.)

12x-10x (Solve.)

12x-10x=2x

2x=-6

2x/2=-6/2 (Then, divide by 2 from both sides.)

-6/2 (Solve.)

-6/2=-3

x=-3

As a result, the final answer is x=-3.

Over [174]
Working step by step I first see all my different groups then add them all together
so
12 - cats
15 - dogs
6 - both
9 - neither

12 students + 15 students + 6 students + 9 students = 42 students
therefore 42 students are in the class

16 + 10 + 3 + 12 = 41

I’m sorry if i got it wrong!

Find the values of x, y, and λ that satisfy the system of equations. Such systems arise in certain problems of calculus, and λ i
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

x=4, y=4, λ=-16

Step-by-step explanation:

We have this 3x3 system of linear equations:

4x+λ=0

4y+λ=0

x+y=8

So, let's rewrite the system in its augmented matrix form

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}4&0&1&0\\0&4&1&0\\1&1&0&8\end{array}\right]

Let´s apply row reduction process to  its associated augmented matrix:

Swap R1 and R3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&0&8\\0&4&1&0\\4&0&1&0\end{array}\right]

R3-4R1

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&0&8\\0&4&1&0\\0&-4&1&-32\end{array}\right]

R3+R2

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&1&0&8\\0&4&1&0\\0&0&2&-32\end{array}\right]

Now we have a simplified system:

x+y+0=0

0+4y+λ=0

0+0+2λ=-32

Solving for λ, x, and y

λ=-16

x=4

y=4
