Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total percentage = 100%

And we know that proportions of Vanilla +chocolate +strawberry = 100%

Proportion of Vanilla = 45%

Proportion of Strawberry = 1/4  *100 = 25%

Let proportion of chocolate be represented by variable C;

So, 45% +25% + C = 100%

65% +C = 100%

Subtract 65% from both sides to solve for C;

C=100% - 65%

C = 35%

Therefore there is 35% of chocolate  in the shop.

Solve the system <br> 2x+2y+z=-2 <br> -x-2y+2z=-5<br> 2x+4y+z=0
drek231 [11]

The values of (x,y,z) are (3,-1,-2) , if the given are equations 2x+2y+z=- 2,-x-2y+2z=-5 and 2x+4y+z=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

                          2x+2y+z=- 2.......................................(1)

                         -x-2y+2z=-5......................................(2)

                            2x+4y+z=0.........................................(3)

Step:1

           Equation (2) is multiplied by -1            ( Eqn(2) × -1 )

                                         x+2y-2z=5.............................(4)

          Subtract the equation (1) and (4)

                                        2x+2y+z=- 2

                                         x+2y-2z=5

                 ( - )

           (2x-x)+(2y-2y)+(z+2z)=(-2-5)

                                                  x+3z=-7......................(5)

Step:2

          Equation (2) is multiplied by -2                 ( Eqn(2) × -2)

                                        2x+4y-4z=10........................(6)

         Subtract equation (6) and (3),                  

                                        2x+4y-4z=10

                                         2x+4y+z=0

                   ( - )

       (2x-2x)+(4y-4y)+(-4z-z)= (10-0)

                                                     -5z=10

                                                         z = - \frac{10}{5}

                                                         z = -2

         From the equation (5),

                                                  x+3z=-7  

                                          x+(3)(-2)=-7

                                                           x = -7+6

                                                            x = -1

         From equation (1),

                                            2x+2y+z=- 2

          Substitute x and z values,

                               (2)(-1)+2y+(-2)=-2

                                                     2y - 4=2

                                                           2y=4-2

                                                           2y=2

                                                            y=\frac{2}{2}

                                                             y = 1

Step:3

                Check for solution,

                                  -x-2y+2z=-5

                Substitute x,y and z values,

               -(-1)-(2)(1)+(2)(-2)=-5

                                         1-2-4=-5

                                                    -5 = -5

Result:

              The values of (x,y,z) are (3,-1,-2) , if the given are equations 2x+2y+z=- 2,-x-2y+2z=-5 and 2x+4y+z=0.

The stock market dropped 220 points on Monday. It lost another 48 points on Tuesday, and on Wednesday it gained 96 points. What
prisoha [69]

48 points gained in those 3 days.

Subtract 220 with 48, then add 96. Last step would be subtracting 220 with the amount they have now in those 3 days to find how much points the stock market gained in those 3 days.

Subtract 220-48.It‘ll be 172.

Add 172 with 96. 172+96=268.

Subtract 268 with how much points the stock market had 3 days ago. 268-220. So it would be about 48 points gained.
