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.

X-y=5 and x^2y=5x+6​
sergeinik [125]

By applying algebraic handling on the two equations, we find the following three <em>solution</em> pairs: x₁ ≈ 5.693 ,y₁ ≈ 10.693; x₂ ≈ 1.430, y₂ ≈ 6.430; x₃ ≈ - 0.737, y₃ ≈ 4.263.

<h3>How to solve a system of equations</h3>

In this question we have a system formed by a <em>linear</em> equation and a <em>non-linear</em> equation, both with no <em>trascendent</em> elements and whose solution can be found easily by algebraic handling:

x - y = 5      (1)

x² · y = 5 · x + 6       (2)

By (1):

y = x + 5

By substituting on (2):

x² · (x + 5) = 5 · x + 6

x³ + 5 · x² - 5 · x - 6 = 0

(x + 5.693) · (x - 1.430) · (x + 0.737) = 0

There are three solutions: x₁ ≈ 5.693, x₂ ≈ 1.430, x₃ ≈ - 0.737

And the y-values are found by evaluating on (1):

y = x + 5

x₁ ≈ 5.693

y₁ ≈ 10.693

x₂ ≈ 1.430

y₂ ≈ 6.430

x₃ ≈ - 0.737

y₃ ≈ 4.263

By applying algebraic handling on the two equations, we find the following three <em>solution</em> pairs: x₁ ≈ 5.693 ,y₁ ≈ 10.693; x₂ ≈ 1.430, y₂ ≈ 6.430; x₃ ≈ - 0.737, y₃ ≈ 4.263.

the ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4. there are 198 men. How many workers are there?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

3 men

4 women

7 total


3 men/ 7 total = 198 men/ x total

using cross products

3*x = 7 * 198

divide each side by 3

x = 7*198/3

x = 462

There are 462 workers


If you mean 3 men and 1 women for a total of 4 workers when you state a  ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.

3/4 =198/x

Using cross products

3x = 4* 198

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 4*198/3

x =264

264 workers


It all depends on how you define ratio of men and women in a certain factory is 3 to 4.   This is incorrect phrasing and I took it to be men to women.   You cannot have a ratio of men and women.
