A + m = 54, m = a + 4  and,  a + m = 54, - a + m = 4,

Combine the equations: 2m = 58

Now solve: 2m = 58, 2m/2 = 58/2, m = 29, therefore a = 24

Solutions  

In Matrix we use initially based on systems of linear equations.The matrix method is similar to the method of Elimination as but is a lot cleaner than the elimination method.Solving systems of equations by Matrix Method involves expressing the system of equations in form of a matrix and then reducing that matrix into what is known as Row Echelon Form.<span> 

Calculations 

</span>⇒ <span>Rewrite the linear equations above as a matrix 
</span>
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&42\\6&5&54\\\end{array}\right] 

⇒  Apply to Row₂ : Row₂ - 2 <span>Row₁

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&42\\0&-5&-30\\\end{array}\right] 

⇒ <span>Simplify rows

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&42\\0&1&6\\\end{array}\right] 

Note: The matrix is now in echelon form.

Find the coordinates if the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints (-3,4) and (7,9).
svetoff [14.1K]
Using the midpoint formula 
\frac{ x_{1}+ x_{2}  }{2},  &#10; \frac{ y_{1}+  y_{2}  }{2}
\frac{-3+7}{2},&#10; \frac{4+9}{2}
\frac{4}{2},&#10; \frac{13}{2}
(2,6.5)
So, your answer would be (2,6.5).

Jen’s goal is to run a total of 22 miles in five days. The table below shows her log for the number of miles she ran on Monday,
Ronch [10]

Answer: 5.875 miles run on Friday to reach her goal by Jen

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Part of distance covered on Monday by Jen is given by

4\frac{3}{4}=\frac{19}{4}

Part of distance covered on Tuesday by Jen is given by

5\frac{1}{8}\\\\=\frac{41}{8}

Part of distance covered on Wednesday by Jen is given by

0

Part of distance covered on Thursday by Jen is given by

6\frac{1}{4}\\\\=\frac{25}{4}

Total part of distance covered in these four days by Jen is given by

\frac{19}{4}+\frac{41}{8}+0+\frac{25}{4}\\\\=\frac{38+41+0+50}{8}\\\\=\frac{129}{8}=16.125\ miles

Remaining part of distance will be covered on Friday to reach her goal which is given by

22-16.125=5.875\ miles

Hence, 5.875 miles run on Friday to reach her goal by Jen.
