Answer:

(x,y,z) -> (2,4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

7x - 6y + 4z = -6

Pick two pairs:

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

7x - 6y + 4z = -6

and

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

Eliminate the same variable from each system:

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

7x - 6y + 4z = -6

+ 5y - 9z = -3

- 6y + 4z = -6

<u><em>-1y - 5z = - 9</em></u>

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + 5y - 9z = -3

-7x + y + z = -9

7x - 5y + 9z = 3

<u><em>-4y - 10z = -6</em></u>

Solve the system of the two new equations:

-1y - 5z = - 9           ->      -4 ( -1y - 5z = - 9)     ->   4y + 20z = 36  

-4y - 10z = -6          ->           -4y - 10z = -6      ->   -4y - 10z = -6

10z = 30

Thus, z = 3

-4y - 10z = -6

-4y - 10(3) = -6

-4y - 30 = -6

-4y = 24

Thus, y = -6

Substitute into one of the original equations:

-7x + y + z = -9

-7x + (-6) + (3) = -9

7x + -3  = -9

7x  = -6

x =

Person A buys 12 granola bars and 7 cups of yogurt for $15.50. Person B buys 6 granola bars and 11 cups of yogurt for $11.50. Fi
ExtremeBDS [4]
<span>Granola bars cost $1 each and the yogurt is $.50 per cup. If we plug this in to each equation, you'll see that 12 granola bars equals $12, and 7 cups of yogurt equals $3.50, for a total of $15.50. The second statement would yield $6 + $5.50, which equals $11.50.</span>

Find the value of each variable in the parallelogram
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

B= 90

C= 80

D= 100

Step-by-step explanation:

So let’s start with the bottom angles.

We know that the adjacent angles in a parallelogram add up to 180° so our equation would be (b-10) + (b+10)=180. So let’s simplify it b and b are both the same variables so we will get 2b and -10 + 10 is 0 so we get the following equation 2b=180.

So now we divide 180 and 2 and we get 90 as b.

So one side will be 100 because of the +10 and the other 90 because of the -10.

Now for the next side.

d+c=180

So we know that b+10 is adjacent to c so 180-100 is 80, so 80 is c.

Now for d.

b-10 is 80 so 180-80 is 100, so d is 100.

Given that u =&lt; 2,12 &gt;, and z =&lt; -7,5 &gt;
swat32

Using the dot product:

For any vector x, we have

||x|| = √(x • x)

This means that

||w|| = √(w • w)

… = √((u + z) • (u + z))

… = √((u • u) + (u • z) + (z • u) + (z • z))

… = √(||u||² + 2 (u • z) + ||z||²)

We have

u = ⟨2, 12⟩   ⇒   ||u|| = √(2² + 12²) = 2√37

z = ⟨-7, 5⟩   ⇒   ||z|| = √((-7)² + 5²) = √74

u • z = ⟨2, 12⟩ • ⟨-7, 5⟩ = -14 + 60 = 46

and so

||w|| = √((2√37)² + 2•46 + (√74)²)

… = √(4•37 + 2•46 + 74)

… = √314 ≈ 17.720

Alternatively, without mentioning the dot product,

w = u + z = ⟨2, 12⟩ + ⟨-7, 5⟩ = ⟨-5, 17⟩

and so

||w|| = √((-5)² + 17²) = √314 ≈ 17.720

andres has 10 more goldfish than todd. Together,they have 50 goldfish.How many goldfish does each boy have?
Dmitry [639]
Let's go ahead and construct an equation to show this. Together, they have 50 goldfish. This can be represented as =50. 

Since we don't know how many Todd has, we're going to make a variable. We'll name it T, for Todd.

What about Andres? How many does he have? 10 more than Todd. Well, if Todd's amount is T, and Andres has 10 more, we can express that as T+10.

Now, just put the two pieces together! T+10=50. 

The next step is inverse operations. You want to find out how many T is, so you need to get rid of the 10. To take 10 away from something is doing what? Subtraction! Be warned, though; whatever you do to one side of the problem, you have to do to the other. 10-10 is 0, and 50-10 is 40. Since we took the 10 away and 50 is now 40, what you're left with is T=40.

Wait a second.. wasn't "T" Todd's amount? Yep! That means that Todd has 40 goldfish. And we already know that Andres has 10, so there's your answer!
