A=number of seats in section A
B=number of seats in section B
C=number of seats in section C

We can suggest this system of equations:

A+B+C=55,000
A=B+C                                      ⇒A-B-C=0
28A+16B+12C=1,158,000

We solve this system of equations by Gauss Method.

1             1              1               55,000
1            -1            -1                         0
28         16           12          1,158,000 


1             1              1               55,000
0            -2             -2             -55,000                                    (R₂-R₁)
0           12             16           382,000                                    (28R₁-R₂) 


1            1                1              55,000
0           -2              -2             -55,000
0            0                4               52,000                                     (6R₂+R₃)

Therefore:

4C=52,000
C=52,000/4
C=13,000


-2B-2(13,000)=-55,000
-2B-26,000=-55,000
-2B=-55,000+26,000
-2B=-29,000
B=-29,000 / -2
B=14,500.

A + 14,500+13,000=55,000
A+27,500=55,000
A=55,000-27,500
A=27,500.

Answer: there are 27,500 seats in section A, 14,500 seats in section B and 13,000 seats in section C.

I’ll love u forever if u help me with this ASAP PLZZZ I don’t get it plzzz
laiz [17]

Answer:

v= 13

w= -32

Step-by-step explanation:

2v+6w=-36

5v+2w=1

2w= 1-5v

2v+ (3)(1-5v)= -36

2v+3-15v= -36

3-13v =-36

3--36= 13v

39= 13v

13 = V

5×13+2w=1

65+2w=1

1-65= 2w

-64=2w

-32=w

What is the slope and y-intercept?
miv72 [106K]
Slope=rise/run
yintercept is where the line crosses the y axis
y=mx+B
m=slope
b=yint
intercept at -3
y=mx-3
pick  a point
(5,0)
x=5,y=0
0=m(5)-3
add 3
3=5m
divide 5
3/5=m

slope=3/5
y int=-3

I need help on this question plz answer me
ahrayia [7]

A stem and leaf plot (histogram) shows the mode as the longest list of "leaves." It is the easiest to use for finding mode.

A box-and-whisker plot tells you nothing about relative frequencies.

A scatter plot or line graph would require careful re-interpretation to determine the mode. If the amount of data is large and there are many data values with about the same high frequency, these charts may be unhelpful, too.
