Answer:

x = -1 , y = 4 , z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-x + 3 y - 2 z = 19 | (equation 1)

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

-3 x - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 1 with equation 3:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

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

-x + 3 y - 2 z = 19 | (equation 3)

Add 2/3 × (equation 1) to equation 2:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+y/3 + z/3 = 1/3 | (equation 2)

-x + 3 y - 2 z = 19 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by 3:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + z = 1 | (equation 2)

-x + 3 y - 2 z = 19 | (equation 3)

Subtract 1/3 × (equation 1) from equation 3:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+(10 y)/3 - (8 z)/3 = 64/3 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 3/2:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+y + z = 1 | (equation 2)

0 x+5 y - 4 z = 32 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y - 4 z = 32 | (equation 2)

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

Subtract 1/5 × (equation 2) from equation 3:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y - 4 z = 32 | (equation 2)

0 x+0 y+(9 z)/5 = (-27)/5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 5/9:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y - 4 z = 32 | (equation 2)

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

Add 4 × (equation 3) to equation 2:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y+0 z = 20 | (equation 2)

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

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{-(3 x) - y + 2 z = -7 | (equation 1)

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

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

Add equation 2 to equation 1:

{-(3 x) + 0 y+2 z = -3 | (equation 1)

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

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

Subtract 2 × (equation 3) from equation 1:

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

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

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

Divide equation 1 by -3:

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

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

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

Collect results:

Answer:  {x = -1 , y = 4 , z = -3

What is greater 7/10 or 3/6? please show work
vovikov84 [41]
What you need to do is make sure the denominators are the same so multiply 7/10 by 6. It should now be 42/60. Next multiply 3/6 by 10. It should now equal 30/60. 7/10 = 42/60. 3/6 = 30/60. 7/10 is greater. I hope this was somewhat helpful :3

f(x) = -4x^2+12x-9f(x)=−4x 2 +12x−9f, left parenthesis, x, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 4, x, squared, plus, 12, x, minus,
Olin [163]

Answer:

The graph has only one x-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=-4x^2+12x-9

we know that

The discriminant of a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to

D=b^{2}-4ac

in this problem we have

f(x)=-4x^2+12x-9

so

a=-4\\b=12\\c=-9

substitute

D=12^{2}-4(-4)(-9)

D=144-144

D=0

The discriminant is zero

That means ----> The quadratic equation has one real solution

The graph has only one x-intercept

A raft and a motorboat simultaneously leave from the same point and move down the river. After 2 hours the motorboat turns aroun
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x mph be the speed of motorboat in still water and y mph be the speed of current.

A raft and a motorboat simultaneously leave from the same point and move down the river, then speeds down the river are:

        motorboat =  x + y mph

        raft = y mph

In two hours they will cover:

        motorboat = 2(x+y) miles

        raft = 2y miles

After 2 hours the motorboat turns around and starts moving towards the raft (against the current), so its speed is now x - y mph.

Let t be the time they move towards each other. In t hours, they cover

        motorboat = t(x - y) miles

        raft = ty miles

The distance from the starting point to the turning point is the same as the sum of the distances the raft covers and the motorboat covers after turning around, so

2(x+y)=2y+t(x-y)+ty \\ \\2x+2y=2y+tx-ty+ty\\ \\2x=tx\\ \\t=2\ hours

Find the slope of the line that passes through (5,12) and (9,7)
omeli [17]

The slope will be the difference between the y-coordinates divided by the difference between the x-coordinates:

then the slope of the line is:

m=\frac{12-7}{5-9}=\frac{5}{-4}=-\frac{5}{4}
