Solve the system using substitution.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Maru [420]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Given: The following system:

4x + y − 2z=18          ......[1]

2x-3y+3z = 21          ......[2]

x-3y=6                      ......[3]

we can write equation [3] as;

3y = x-6                     ......[4]

Multiply by 3 in equation [1] to both sides of an equation we get,

3 \cdot(4x+y-2z)= 3\cdot 18 or

12x+3y-6z=54              ......[5]

Substituting the equation [4] in [2] and [5] we get;

2x-(x-6)+3z=21 or

2x-x+6+3z=21

Simplify:

x+3z=15            .....[6]                       [combine like terms]

12x+x-6-6z =54

Simplify:

13x-6z=60         ......[7]        [Combine like terms]

On Solving equation [6] and [7] simultaneously,

x+3z=15

13x-6z=60

we get the value of x

i.e, x=6

Substitute the value of x in equation x+3z=15  we get

6+3z=15 or

3z=9

Simplify:

z=3

Also, substitute the value of x=6 in equation [3] we get the value of y;

x-3y=6

6-3y=6 or

-3y = 0

Simplify:

y = 0

Therefore, the solution to the system of three linear equation is, (6, 0 , 3)

Dina and Masha started out on a 12 mi bike path at the same time. When Dina reached the end of the 12 mi, Masha still had 3 mi l
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

6 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Use formula

D=r\cdot t,

where

D = distance

r = rate

t = time

In your case,

D = 12 mi

<u>Dina:</u>

D = 12 mi

r = 8 mph

t = ?

So,

12=8t\\ \\t=\dfrac{12}{8}=\dfrac{3}{2}=1.5\ hours

<u>Masha:</u>

D = 12 - 3 = 8 mi

r = ?

t = 1.5 hours

Then

9=1.5r\\ \\r=\dfrac{9}{1.5}=\dfrac{90}{15}=6\ mph

Please help !!! I’ll mark you as brainliest if correct
kozerog [31]

Answer:

10 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the height (s) which is 1600ft. and the formula—where t is time in seconds— t= 1/4\sqrt{s}, so we can plug 1600ft in for s and solve:

t= 1/4\sqrt{1600}

t= 1/4(40)

t= 10 seconds

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Option A. Ahmed wins the chess game

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The probability of Ahmed winning the chess games is 45%

45%=045/100=0.45

The probability of Ahmen winning the checkers games is 0.36

Compare the probability

0.45> 0.36

so

Is more likely that  Ahmed wins the chess game
