Answer:

Option D.

3 equations with 3 variables

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of a point in space must necessarily have 3 components. One to describe the distance on the x axis, another to describe the distance on the y axis to the point, and a third to describe the distance on the z axis.

If we have three variables, then 3 equations are needed to solve the system. With less than 3 equations it would be impossible to solver the system.

Therefore the correct answer is option D.

3 equations with 3 variables

Solve the following inequality.
user100 [1]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

21 ≤ - 3(x - 4) < 30 ← divide all 3 intervals by - 3

Remembering to reverse the direction of the signs as a result of dividing by a negative quantity

- 7 ≥ x - 4 > - 10 ← add 4 to each interval

- 3 ≥ x > - 6, that is

- 6 < x ≤ - 3 → A

In the figure, a∥e , m∥n , and m∠1= 108°.<br><br> What is the m∠3?
Fantom [35]
I assume you meant N1=108 since there is no M1 in the pic
N1=N2 and N2 =M3 (since M and N are parallel)
which means M3 = 108<span />
