Because the last equation already has the y eliminated so just need to get the other two to eliminate the y too

multiply 4 to the first equation to eliminate y, and you get
-4x-4y-4z=-32
-4x+4y+5z=7
now get rid of y so all you have left is
-8x+z=-25 (let call this equation #4)

now take equation #3 and #4 together to solve for one of the variables, i’ll solve for z first so i’ll get rid of x by multiply the equation #4 all by 4, you get

8x+8z=16
-8x+z=-25
solve it and get 9z= -9; z=-1

now you have z so take it and ply it into equation #3
2x+2(-1)=4
2x=6; x=3

take both of them, plug it in equation #1
-3-y-(-1)=-8
-y=-6 ; y=6

done so the answer is (x,y,z) = (3,6,-1)

Answer:

  (x, y, z) = (3, 6, -1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make a simple expression to substitute for x using the last equation.

  2x = 4 -2z

  x = 2 - z . . . . . . divide by 2

Now, substitute that into the first equation:

  -(2 -z) -y -z = -8 . . . .substitute for x

  -2 +z -y -z = -8 . . . . eliminate parentheses

 -2 -y = -8 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  6 = y . . . . . . . . . . . . add 8+y

We can substitute for both x and y in the second equation:

  -4(2 -z) +4(6) +5z = 7

  -8 +4z +24 +5z = 7 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  9z = -9 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .simplify, subtract 16

  z = -1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 9

And from our expression for x, we get ...

  x = 2 - z = 2 -(-1) . . . . . substitute for z

  x = 3

The solution is (x, y, z) = (3, 6, -1).

There is a 12-ft fence on one side of a rectangular garden. The gardener has 44 ft of fencing to the enclose the other three sid
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

  16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the other three sides is 12 ft. After that fence is subtracted from the total, there are 32 ft of fence left for the other two sides of the rectangle. That allows those sides to be 32 ft/2 = 16 ft long.

The rectangle can be 12 ft by 16 ft. The longer dimension is 16 ft.

PLEASE PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLY
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The second option (see attached image)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for a box diagram that represents 9 units, and from those, clearly marked sections that contain 3/2 = 1.5 units.The idea is to count how many 1.5 units you have in 9 units.

The in the second diagram you see 9 boxes subdivided in half. Then outlined in red other smaller boxes of length 1.5 units. We can clearly see from the diagram that there are exactly 6 of these smaller 1.5 units red boxes to produce the total 9 unit object.
