Answer:

b., (2, 5, 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

x-­ y + z = 0

-5x + 3y ­- 2z = ­-1

2x ­ - y + 4z = 11

Multiply the first equation by 2

2x - 2y + 2z = 0

Adding this to the second equation we get

-3x  + y = -1 ........... (A)

Multiplying the second equation by 2 and adding to the third equation we get:

-8x + 5y = 9................(B)

Multiplying equation (A) by -5 and adding to equation (B) we get:

7x = 14

x = 2.

Substituting  -3(2) + y = -1  so y = -1 + 6 = 5.

And substituting in the first equation fo x and y:

2 - 5 + z = 0

z = 5-2 = 3.

Answer:

  b.  (2, 5, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Trying the offered choices seems the fastest way to find the answer. The second choice works in all equations, hence is the solution.

Another strategy you can use is to see if the equations are dependent. Here, it looks like adding twice the third equation to the other two eliminates at least the x- and y-variables. If that eliminates z, then there are infinite solutions. Instead, it gives the equation ...

  7z = 21

  z = 3 . . . . . divide by 7

This answer is consistent with choice B, confirming that answer and eliminating the other choices.

Solve the equation -12 = f/0.2 (Thats a fraction)
Shalnov [3]
-12 = f/0.2

First, we can start out by making our goal to get the variable (f) on one side of the problem by itself. To do this, multiply both sides by 0.2. 
-12 \times 0.2 = f

Second, our next step is to multiply -12 times 0.2. This can be solved in your head, on a piece of paper, on a calculator, etc. (-12 times 0.2 = 2.4).
-2.4 = f

Third, our last step will be to switch sides. Basically flip the problem.
f = -2.4

Answer: \fbox {x = -2.4}

There are 360 seals. Of them are 9/20 are pups. The rest are adult seals . How many pups are the beach .
k0ka [10]

Answer:

162 pups are on the beach

Step-by-step explanation:

9/20 of 360

The key word "of" tells us to multiply

Variable x = number of pups

9/20 × x/360

Cross multiply

9 × 360 = 20 × x

3,240 = 20x

Divide both sides by 20

162 = x

Check our work:

9/20 = 162/360

Cross multiply

9 × 360 = 20 × 162

3,240 = 3,240

Correct
