Answer:

13.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 8.2^2 = 15.5^2

x = \sqrt{15.5^2 -8.2^2}

x = 13.2 ft

Linar system in variables<br> -x-3y-2z=8,<br> -x+y+6z=, <br> x-9y-2z=4
docker41 [41]

Answer:

-x+y+6z=? You did not spcify so I just made it 0

x = -22/5, y = -4/5, z = -3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

-x + y + 6 z = 0 | (equation 2)

x - 9 y - 2 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+4 y + 8 z = -8 | (equation 2)

x - 9 y - 2 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 4:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 2)

x - 9 y - 2 z = 4 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 2)

0 x - 12 y - 4 z = 12 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 3 by 4:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 2)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+y + 2 z = -2 | (equation 3)

Add 1/3 × (equation 2) to equation 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+(5 z)/3 = -1 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+5 z = -3 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 3 by 5:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y - z = 3 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Add equation 3 to equation 2:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x - 3 y+0 z = 12/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by -3:

{-x - 3 y - 2 z = 8 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Add 3 × (equation 2) to equation 1:

{-x + 0 y - 2 z = 28/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Add 2 × (equation 3) to equation 1:

{-x+0 y+0 z = 22/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 1 by -1:

{x+0 y+0 z = -22/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y+0 z = -4/5 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+z = -3/5 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = -22/5, y = -4/5, z = -3/5

Explain why the equations X - 13 = 4 and 13 - X = 4 do NOT have the same solution.
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

they have different answers

Step-by-step explanation:

X - 13 = 4 and 13 - X = 4

for x- 13 = 4

x=4+13=17

x=17

for 13 - x = 4

13-4-x=0

9-x=0

9=x

x=9
