Answer: x=3, y=6, z=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2z=4

2x=4-2z

X=2-z

-(2-z)-y-z=-8

-2+z-y-z=-8

-2-y=-8

-2+y=-8+y

-2+8=y

6=y

-4 (2-z)+4 (6)+5z=7

-8+4z+24+5z=7

9z=8-24+7

9z=-9

Z=-1

2x+2z=4

2x+2 (-1)=4

2x-2=4+2

2x=6

X=3

x=3 y=6 z=-1

- x - y - z = - 8 ------- (1)
- 4x + 4y + 5z = 7 -------- (2)
2x + 2z = 4 --------- (3)

From (3): x + z = 2
                      x = 2 - z --------- (4)

Substitute (4) into (1),
- x - y - z = - 8
- (2-z) - y - z = - 8
- 2 + z - y - z = -8
- 2 - y = - 8
2 + y = 8
Therefore, y = 6

Substitute y = 6 and (4) into (2),
- 4x + 4y + 5z = 7
- 4(2 - z) + 4(6) + 5z = 7
- 8 + 4z + 24 + 5z = 7
9z + 16 = 7
9z = - 9
Therefore, z = - 9

Substitute z = - 9 into (4),
x = 2 - z
x = 2 - (-9)
x = 2 + 9
Therefore x = 11

Solution:
x = 11
y = 6
z = -9

The diagonals of quadrilateral EFGH intersect at D(?3,4). EFGH has vertices at E(3,7) and F(?4,5). What must be the coordinates
Katen [24]

Answer:

  G(3, 1), H(2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When D is the midpoint of EG, it means ...

  D = (E + G)/2

or

  G = 2D -E = 2(3,4) -(3,7) = (2·3-3, 2·4-7) = (3, 1)

Likewise, H is ...

  H = 2D -F = 2(3,4) -(4,5) = (2·3-4, 2·4-5) = (2, 3)

Find a counterexample to disprove the statement "The Associative Property is true for division."
MaRussiya [10]
The associative property makes it so whichever which way the numbers are the answer will be the same but as shown in the picture this isn't true for this statement because the answers become completely different depending on where the numbers are in the equation.
6 divided by 3 is NOT equal to 3 divided by 6 which disproves that property.
