Answer:

Solving systems of equations with 3 variables is very similar to how we solve systems with two variables. When we had two variables we reduced the system down

to one with only one variable (by substitution or addition). With three variables

we will reduce the system down to one with two variables (usually by addition),

which we can then solve by either addition or substitution.

To reduce from three variables down to two it is very important to keep the work

organized. We will use addition with two equations to eliminate one variable.

This new equation we will call (A). Then we will use a different pair of equations

and use addition to eliminate the same variable. This second new equation we

will call (B). Once we have done this we will have two equations (A) and (B)

with the same two variables that we can solve using either method. This is shown

in the following examples.

Example 1.

3x +2y − z = − 1

− 2x − 2y +3z = 5 We will eliminate y using two different pairs of equations

5x +2y − z = 3

Katena32 [7]
<span>1.
"The spending limit on John’s credit card is given by the function f(x)=15,000+1.5x"

means that if the monthly income of John is $ 5,000 ,he can spend at most 

f(5,000)=15,000+1.5*5,000=15,000+ 7,500=22, 500 (dollars)

Or for example

if Johns monthly income is $8,000, then he can spend at most

 </span>f(8,000)=15,000+1.5*8,000=15,000+ 12,000=27,000 (dollars)<span>


2.
Now, assume that the maximum amount that John can spend is y.

Then, y=15,000+1.5x

we can express x, the monthly income, in terms of y by isolating x:

</span>y=15,000+1.5x
<span>
1.5x = y-15,000


</span>x= \frac{y-15,000}{1.5}
<span>
thus, in functional notation, x, the monthly income, is a function , say g, of variable y, the max amount:

</span>x=g(y)=\frac{y-15,000}{1.5}

since we generally use the letter x for the variable of a function, we write g again as:

g(x)=\frac{x-15,000}{1.5}
<span>
for example :

</span>g(50,000)=\frac{50,000-15,000}{1.5}= \frac{35,000}{1.5}= 23,333
<span>
tells us that if the maximum amount that John can spend is 50,000 $, then his monthly income is 23,333 $.

3.

If John's limit is $60,000, his monthly income is 

</span>g(60,000)=\frac{60,000-15,000}{1.5}= \frac{45,000}{1.5}=30,000<span>
 dollars.


Answer: $ 30,000

Remark: g is called the inverse function of f, since it undoes what f does.

instead of g(x), we could use the notation </span>f ^{-1}(x)<span>

qwelly [4]

Answer:

8 m3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Box A has a volume of 64 cubic meters, that means each side length is 4 m3. It says to make Box B, they divided these lengths by 2. With that info, you get 8 as your volume
