Answer:
b. (1, 3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.
It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:
a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18
b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice
c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18
d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18
This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:
2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1
-(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
You need to do 10 divided by 4. Each friend would get 2.5 pounds of a nut.
Answer:
8.33333333333
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution for 3x-7=18 equation:
3x - 7 = 18
3x = 18 + 7
3x = 25 (divide both sides by 3 to get x)
3x/3 = 25/3
x = 8.33333333333
Hi!
If they each got the same, then they each got 1/3 of the total $360. Therefore, we can divide 360 by 3. We can do this by dividing 36 by 3, 36/3, and that's 12. Then add the 0! 120.
Your sentence could be: "The amount of money each worker got can be represented by 360/3, which is $120."
Hope this helps! :D
