No, the work is correct, but the interpretation is not. “6 is less than or equal to h<span>” means that h is greater than or equal to 6. He must grow at least 6 inches, not at most 6 inches.</span>
The given operation involves just swapping the two rows, so carrying out
on the matrix gives
![\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}5&5&5\\1&-\dfrac23&5\end{array}\right]\to\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&-\dfrac23&5\\5&5&5\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Cc%7D5%265%265%5C%5C1%26-%5Cdfrac23%265%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cto%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Cc%7D1%26-%5Cdfrac23%265%5C%5C5%265%265%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
When you have this type of problem, you need to combine the like-terms and isolate the variable.
3x + 122 = 22x - 11
Add 11 to both sides to get rid of it
3x + 122 + 11 = 22x - 11 + 11 (-11 + 11=0)
3x + 133 = 22x
Then you would bring the 3x to the other side, so subtract 3x from both sides
3x + 133 = 22x
-3x -3x
133 = 22x - 3x
133 = 19x
Then divide both sides by 19 to isolate x
133/19 = 19x/19
133/19 = 7, so x = 7
Hope this helps!!
The answer is none. Since you have to add your a's first, your left with 0 meaning that there is no more a's meaning that you have no solution. Hope this helps!
