Tìm kiếm x y z<br> x-1/y =1<br> y-1/z =1<br> z-1/x =1
const2013 [10]

<em>y</em> - 1/<em>z</em> = 1   ==>   <em>y</em> = 1 + 1/<em>z</em>

<em>z</em> - 1/<em>x</em> = 1   ==>   <em>z</em> = 1 + 1/<em>x</em>

==>   <em>y</em> = 1 + 1/(1 + 1/<em>x</em>) = 1 + <em>x</em>/(<em>x</em> + 1) = (2<em>x</em> + 1)/(<em>x</em> + 1)

<em>x</em> - 1/<em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - (<em>x</em> + 1)/(2<em>x</em> + 1) = (2<em>x</em> ² - 1)/(2<em>x</em> + 1) = 1

==>   2<em>x</em> ² - 1 = 2<em>x</em> + 1

==>   2<em>x</em> ² - 2<em>x</em> - 2 = 0

==>   <em>x</em> ² - <em>x</em> - 1 = 0

==>   <em>x</em> = (1 ± √5)/2

If you start solving for <em>z</em>, then for <em>x</em>, then for <em>y</em>, you would get the same equation as above (with <em>y</em> in place of <em>x</em>), and the same thing happens if you solve for <em>x</em>, then <em>y</em>, then <em>z</em>. So it turns out that <em>x</em> = <em>y</em> = <em>z</em>.

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 3, negative 3) and (negative 1, 5).
slega [8]

Answer:

y=20

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you can plug the first 2 coordinates into the slope equation (\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2} -x_{1} }) you will get 4 for the slope so for the equation for the parallel line you would get y=4x+4 and since the x=4 you could plug that in and you would get y=20 and x=4

Can someone figure this out?
ZanzabumX [31]

well, let's see the 10-pack is $15.37 BUT each of those 10 bars are 2.1 oz, so for the whole package you're getting really 10 * 2.1 = 21.0 oz.

the 12-pack costs $15.35 BUT each of those 12 bars are 1.4 oz, so for the whole package you're getting 12 * 1.4 = 16.8 oz.

which is the better deal?  which one gives you more ounces for the money?  after all, you're going to eat the bars, so you want more ounces, not more bars.

\bf \cfrac{15.37}{21}\cfrac{\$}{oz}~~\approx ~~0.73~\frac{\$}{oz}~\hspace{10em} \cfrac{15.35}{16.8}\cfrac{\$}{oz}~~\approx ~~0.91~\frac{\$}{oz}


so clearly you'd want to get the cheapest one with more ounces, so at $0.73 or 73 cents for each ounce, the 10-pack is the cheapest.
