Her mistake was she didnt move the decimal over two places only one, whick caused her to get 2%. In order for it to be correct she should have moved it two times and it would be 20%.

Solve the following system of equations for all three variables.
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

(x,y,z) -> (2,4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

7x - 6y + 4z = -6

Pick two pairs:

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

7x - 6y + 4z = -6

and

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

Eliminate the same variable from each system:

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

7x - 6y + 4z = -6

+ 5y - 9z = -3

- 6y + 4z = -6

<u><em>-1y - 5z = - 9</em></u>

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

-7x + y + z = -9

7x - 5y + 9z = 3

<u><em>-4y - 10z = -6</em></u>

Solve the system of the two new equations:

-1y - 5z = - 9           ->      -4 ( -1y - 5z = - 9)     ->   4y + 20z = 36  

-4y - 10z = -6          ->           -4y - 10z = -6      ->   -4y - 10z = -6

10z = 30

Thus, z = 3

-4y - 10z = -6

-4y - 10(3) = -6

-4y - 30 = -6

-4y = 24

Thus, y = -6

Substitute into one of the original equations:

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + (-6) + (3) = -9

7x + -3  = -9

7x  = -6

x =

Step by step how to solve 4x+2=5(x+10)​
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

x = -48

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2 = 5(x + 10)

expand the 5(x+10)

4x + 2 = 5x + 50

-2 both sides

4x + 2 - 2 = 5x + 50 - 2

simplify

4x = 5x + 48

-5x both sides

4x - 5x = 5x + 48 - 5x

simplify

-x = 48

÷ (-1) both sides

-x ÷ (-1) = 48 ÷ (-1)

simplify

x = -48

The answer is x = -48.

8.) A line passes through the points (k, 4) and (3, -6). The line is perpendicular to
amm1812

Answer:

K = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by determining the gradient of the equation 5y + 4x = 8. This can be obtained as follow:

5y + 4x = 8

Rearrange

5y = 8 – 4x

5y = –4x + 8

Comparing 5y = –4x + 8 with y = mx + c, the gradient m is –4

Next, we shall determine the gradient of the line perpendicular to the line with equation 5y = 8 – 4x.

This can be obtained as follow:

For perpendicular lines, their gradient is given by:

m1 × m2 = – 1

With the above formula, we can obtain the gradient of the line as follow:

m1 × m2 = – 1

m1 = –4

–4 × m2 = – 1

Divide both side by –4

m2 = –1/–4

m2 = 1/4

Finally, we shall determine the value of k as follow:

Coordinate => (k, 4) and (3, –6)

x1 coordinate = k

y1 coordinate = 4

x2 coordinate = 3

y2 coordinate = –6

Gradient (m) = 1/4

m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

1/4 = (–6 – 4) / (3 – K)

1/4 = –10 /(3 – K)

Cross multiply

3 – K = 4 × –10

3 – K = –40

Collect like terms

– K = – 40 –3

–k = –43

Divide both side by – 1

K = –43/–1

k = 43
