Answer:
All the 3 choices are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
11:5 11 divided by 22 is 1/2 and 5/10 is 1/2
110/50 110 divided by 22 is 5 and 50 divided by 10 is 5
33/15 33 divided by 22 is 1 1/2 and 15 divided by 10 is 1 1/2
Yep!
Weighing #1: Start off by splitting the pile of 12 coins evenly into two piles, 6 in each pile. Put one pile on each side of the balance. The side that is weighed down has the fake coin it in. Ignore the other 6 coins.
Weighing #2: Now you have 6 coins left. Split the pile evenly again, 3 in each pile. Repeat the same process and put each pile on one side of the balance. The side that is weighed down has your fake coin in it. Ignore the other 3 coins.
Weighing #3: You have 3 coins left. Take two coins, whichever two you like, and weigh them. If they weigh the same, then the one you didn't weigh is the fake one. If one is heavier, then that heavier one is your fake coin.
X= 6
Y= 0
Z= -2
CHECK
3x + y -2z =22
3(6) + 0 -2(-2) =22
18 + 0 +4= 22
22=22
x+5y+z =4
6 +5(0)+ -2 =4
6 + 0 +-2 = 4
4=4
x+3z=0
6 + 3(-2) =0
6 -6 = 0
0=0
Y is equal to 1 because to change 15 into 5 you have to divide by 3. 15/3=5. So you do the same to the other coordinate. Divide 3 by 3 to get 1.
