Prejudice is a major cause of in-groups as similar minded people, with alike prejudices, might join to form a clique. Some consider cliques to be a social norm, and to "fit in", they feel compelled to join one. Scapegoating a common tactic used by mobs to blame one, or a few individuals, even if there isn't sufficient evidence to prove guiltiness. Equal status contract explains why people form cliques and why they can act hostile to others, but not to people in their "group". Using attribution theory, one can model a situation to determine the causes of actions and behaviors.

Solve the following systems of 3-variable linear equations.​
Zina [86]

Answer:

x = 9/25, y = 7/25, z = 4/25

Explanation:

step 1: solve for y in first equation to use substitution

y = -2x + 1

step 2: insert into second equation to eliminate y variable and work with two variables

3(-2x+1) + z = 1 (now distribute)

-6x + 3 + z = 1 (bring over the -3)

-6x + z = -2

step 3: now left with -6x + z = -2 and x + 4z = 1, so eliminate z

-6x + z = -2 (multiply by 4)

4(-6x + z = -2)

-24x + 4z = -8

-

x + 4z = 1 (brought down third equation)

-25x = -9

x = 9/25

then just plug in x into the third equation to solve for z, followed by plugging it into the first equation to solve for y. you should end with y = 7/25 and z = 4/25
