What is the solution to the following system?

Mathematics
1 answer:
leva [86]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(4,3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this via matrices, so the equations given can be written in matrix form as:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}3&2&1&20\\1&-4&-1&-10\\2&1&2&15\end{array}\right]

Now I will shift rows to make my pivot point (top left) a 1 and so:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\2&1&2&15\\3&2&1&20\end{array}\right]

Next I will come up with algorithms that can cancel out numbers where R1 means row 1, R2 means row 2 and R3 means row three therefore,

-2R1+R2=R2 , -3R1+R3=R3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\0&9&4&35\\0&14&4&50\end{array}\right]

\frac{R_2}{9}=R_2


\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&-4&-1&-10\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&14&4&50\end{array}\right]


4R2+R1=R1 , -14R2+R3=R3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&\frac{7}{9}&\frac{50}{9}\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&0&-\frac{20}{9}&-\frac{40}{9}\end{array}\right]


-\frac{9}{20}R_3=R_3

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&\frac{7}{9}&\frac{50}{9}\\0&1&\frac{4}{9}&\frac{35}{9}\\0&0&1&2\end{array}\right]


-\frac{4}{9}R_3+R_2=R2 , -\frac{7}{9}R_3+R_1=R_1


\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&0&0&4\\0&1&0&3\\0&0&1&2\end{array}\right]


Therefore the solution to the system of equations are (x,y,z) = (4,3,2)

Note: If answer choices are given, plug them in and see if you get what is "equal to".  Meaning plug in 4 for x, 3 for y and 2 for z in the first equation and you should get 20, second equation -10 and third 15.

Tim bought some 25 cent and some 29 cent stamps. He paid 7.60 dollars for 28 stamps. How many of each type of stamp did he buy?
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

25 cent stamps = 13 and 29 cent stamps = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 25 cent stamps and y = 29 cent stamps

x + y = 28......x = 28 - y

0.25x + 0.29y = 7.60

0.25(28 - y) + 0.29y = 7.60

7 - 0.25y + 0.29y = 7.60

-0.25y + 0.29y = 7.60 - 7

0.04y = 0.60

y = 0.60 / 0.04

y = 15 <===== 29 cent stamps

x + y = 28

x + 15 = 28

x = 28 - 15

x = 13 <===== 25 cent stamps

lets check it...

0.25x + 0.29y = 7.60

0.25(13) + 0.29(15) = 7.60

3.25 + 4.35 = 7.60

7.60 = 7.60 (correct..it checks out)

just olya [345]

Answer:

The term "El Nino" refers to the warming of the central and eastern tropical Pacific waters that occurs every 3 to 7 years and typically lasts from 9 to 12 months. The 1997-1998 El Nino, the strongest ever recorded, affected climate patterns worldwide. Its effect, combined with an increasing trend in annual global temperatures, made 1998 the warmest year in the 20th century. Suppose you are a climatologist. You conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the global mean temperature in the current year is different from the global mean temperature in 1998. Assume that the global mean temperature in 1998 is 14.3 degrees Celsius. You obtain a preliminary sample of temperatures from recording stations worldwide, which yields a sample mean of x bar = 15.1 degrees Celsius. Let mu denote the global mean temperature in the current year. Formulate your null and alternative hypotheses by selecting the appropriate values in the blue drop-down menus that follow.
