Answer:

A) No

Step-by-step explanation:

A system is consitent if it has an solution, or many solutions.

If it ends at a division by 0, or 0 = constant(different than 0), the system is inconsistent.

Let's solve this system

x1 + x2 + x3 = 7

x1 - x2 + 2x3 = 7

2x1 + 3x3 = 15

From the first equation

x1 + x2 + x3 = 7

x3 = 7 - x1 - x2

Replacing in the other equations:

In the second

x1 - x2 + 2x3 = 7

x1 - x2 + 2(7 - x1 - x2) = 7

x1 - x2 + 14 - 2x1 - 2x2 = 7

-x1 - 3x2 = -7

In the third

2x1 + 3x3 = 15

2x1 + 3(7 - x1 - x2) = 15

2x1 + 21 - 3x1 - 3x2 = 15

-x1 - 3x2 = - 6

So we have the following system now:

-x1 - 3x2 = -7

-x1 - 3x2 = - 6

Multiplying the second equation by -1, and adding both equations

-x1 - 3x2 = -7

x1 + 3x2 = 6

0 = -1

This is something that is false, so the system is inconsistent.

The correct answer is:

A) No

Help solve w(5w^3)^-2 / w^-4
Bond [772]
Start with the exponents, 3 and -2, you multiply them together so you get -6 so its w(w^-6)/w^-4 and then you do wx5w^-6 which is 5w^-4 bc im pretty sure you multiply it to 5w and thats 5w squared so you just add it and so it becomes 5w^-4/5w^-4 and you can simplify that
