<h3>Answer:</h3>

(5, -2, -3)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We assume your equations are ...

x +3y -z = 2
4x +2y +5z = 1
3x +0y +z = 12

These have solution (x, y, z) = (5, -2, -3).

<em>How we know</em>

Trying the choices in the last equation eliminates the first and last. Trying the second choice in the first equation eliminates it, leaving the 3rd choice as the answer you're looking for.

We also know because we can ask a graphing calculator to solve the matrix equation (or row-reduce the augmented matrix).

<em>Comment on this problem</em>

The hardest part of this problem is figuring your intent. The equations are not well-separated, so we have a hard time telling what is a constant and what is a coefficient. It took a couple of guesses to sort it out. A little editing before posting would be helpful.

Trapezoid QRST has two right angles. A 5-in.altitude can be drawn dividing QRDT into a rectangle and an isosceles right triangle

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The area of the trapezoid is 57.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The trapezoid QRST can be divided into a rectangle QRDT and an isosceles right triangle RSD

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

The area of rectangle is given by the formula

$A=((QR)(RD)$

we have

$RD=5\ in$ ----> altitude

$QR=9\ in$

substitute

$A=((9)(5)=45\ in^2$

step 2

Find the area of the isosceles right triangle

The area of triangle is given by the formula

$A=\frac{1}{2}(RD)(DS)$

we have

$RD=DS=5\ in$ ---> because is an isosceles triangle

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{2}(5)(5)=12.5\ in^2$

step 3

Adds the areas

$A=45+12.5=57.5\ in^2$

What is 2 3/5 multiplied by 2 as a mixed number or fraction

vivado [14]

Answer:

26/5 or 5 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert 2 3/5 into an improper fraction: 13/5.

Then multiply this result by 2: 2(13/5) = 26/5. This is the answer as an improper fraction.

26/5 as a mixed number would be 5 1/5.

Use your equation from Exercise 6 to find m when n=40

Andreyy89

Answer:

=4/5(N+7)N

Step-by-Step Explanation:

We move all terms to the left:

-(4/5(N+7)N)=0

Domain of the equation: 5(N+7)N)!=0

N∈R

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

-(4=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

=0

N=0/1

N=0
