-2x + 2y + 3z = 0 → 2x - 2y - 3z = 0 → 2x - 2y - 3z = 0
-2x - 1y + 1z = -3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3
2x + 3y + 3z = 5 → 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 -3y - 2z = -3
-2x + 2y + 3z = 0 → 2x - 2y - 3z = 0
-2x - 1y + 1z = -3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3 → 2x + 1y - 1z = 3
2x + 3y + 3z = 5 → 2x + 3y + 3z = 5 → 2x + 3y + 3z = 5
-2y - 4z = -2

Answer:
There are 42 quarters (and 6 dimes).
Step-by-step explanation:
The given ratio is 2:14. But this does not tell us how many dimes nor how many quarters we have. Instead, it's a ratio. Modify this by multiplying numerator and denominator by n and then find n:
Number of dimes 2n
----------------------------- = -----
Number of quarters 14n
Then the total number of coins is 2n + 14n =48, implying that:
16n = 48, or n = 3.
Then the number of dimes is 2(n) = 2(3) = 6, and that of quarters is 14(n) =
14(3) = 42.
There are 42 quarters (and 6 dimes). Notice how the total of 42 and 6 is 48.
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
The given inequality is,

By the definition of absolute value,

We divide through by negative 1, in the first part of the inequality and reverse the sign to get,

We simplify now to get,


Divide through by 2 to obtain,
Answer:
A reality check quickly reveals that even if "eats" were spelled properly, the statement would still be nonsense.
Step-by-step explanation:
(40,000 pounds / 80 years) = (4,000 pounds / 8 years) = 500 pounds per year
500 pounds of bread per year = an average of a little more than 1-1/3 pound of bread per day, every day of a person's life. My reality meter says that this is a bit much, especially in the USA.
