Answer:

I have put my answer in the form (x,y,z)

One solution (3,2,4)

Another solution (-5,-4,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to try to do this by a bunch of substitution.

I'm going to solve first equation for x, second for y, and third for z.

Commutative property x+xy+y=11

Distributive property x(1+y)+y=11

Subtraction property  x(1+y)=11-y

Division property x=(11-y)/(1+y)

I'm going to do the other 2 equations in a similar way:

So the second equation solving for y:    y=(14-z)/(1+z)

The third equation solving for z:  z=(19-x)/(1+x)

I'm going to plug my new first equation into my third equation giving me:

z=(19-[(11-y)/(1+y)])/(1+[(11-y)/(1+y)]

Now I'm going to clean this up by multiplying by compound fraction by (1+y)/(1+y).

z=(19(1+y)-(11-y)]/[1(1+y)+(11-y)]

z=[19+19y-11+y]/[1+y+11-y]

z=[8+20y]/[12]

Simplify

z=(2+5y)/3

Now I'm going to sub this into my non-rewrite of equation 2:

y+(2+5y)/3+y(2+5y)/3=14

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear fractions

3y+(2+5y)+y(2+5y)=42

3y+2+5y+2y+5y^2=42

5y^2+10y+2=42

Subtract 42 on both sides

5y^2+10y-40=0

Divide both sides by 5

y^2+2y-8=0

Factor

(y+4)(y-2)=0

So y=-4 or y=2

If y=-4  then x=(11-(-4))/(1+(-4))=15/-3=-5 and z=(2+5*-4)/3=-18/3=-6

So one solution is (-5,-4,-6)

If y=2 then x=(11-2)/(1+2)=9/3=3 and z=(2+5*2)/3=12/3=4

So another solution is (3,2,4)

Find the volume of a right prism with height h=10 cm, if :
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

          So, to begin the altitude of a triangle is the line segment that starts at the top vertex and ends at the base of the triangle forming a right angle. If we want to find the volume of the of the prism the formula is Ab*h. This is the area of the base, times the height of the prism. This is true because a simple expination of volume is a box filled with stuff. To count how much stuff we have in the box the formula uses layers. Volume is just like a lot of 2 dimential areas stacked on top of each other. So taking the area of the flat base and puting it on top of it self 10 time will give you the same prism thats in the problem. Now we just have to apply the consept. Since the base is a triangle and we need to find the area. The formula is b*h*1/2. Base time height times 1/2. The reason for this is also simlar to area. A triangle is half of a square, so to find the area of a square the formula is L*W. Since a triangle is half of a square you just multipuly it by 1/2. When solved you will get 4*3.5*1/2=7, the area of the base is 7 cm^2. Now appling the topic above we stack the base 10 times, so 7*10=70. In conculstion the volume of the prism would be 70 cm^2.

Suppose that the total cost of flatiron TVs is given by the function TC(Q) = 500Q + 300 dollars, where Q is the number of TVs pr
Harrizon [31]

The value of TC(10) is 5300 Dollars

Given function is TC(Q) = 500Q +300 dollars

We need to calculate the value for TC (10)

As we know that the equation given is TC(Q) = 500Q + 300 dollars

Q is the number of TVs produced

Therefore, The value of Q is 10 for TC(10)

Substituting the value of Q

in the total cost of flatiron TVs given by function TC(Q) = 500Q + 300 dollars That Q= 100,

TC(10) = 500(10)+300 dollars

∴ TC (10) = 5000+300 dollars

∴ TC (10) = 5300 dollars

Hence the value of TC(10) is 5300 Dollars

Hello,

So we can first assign HD videos and classic videos to specific variables, x is HD videos and y is classic videos.

Fiona bought 5 HD videos, and 2 classic videos for 31 dollars.
5x + 2y = 31

Iliana bought 3 HD videos and 5 classic videos for 30 dollars.
3x + 5y = 30

Therefore, the final answer is choice D, 5x + 2y = 31 and 3x + 5y = 30.

In figure qr = 1/3pr. find pq​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

PQ = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

QR =\frac{1}{3} PR

QR =\frac{1}{3} \times 4.8

QR =1.6

PQ = PR - QR

PQ = 4.8 - 1.6

PQ = 3.2
