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)

When lines are parallel...
Otrada [13]

Answer:

1) Congruent

2) Supplementary

3) Congruent

4) Congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The Alternate Interior Angles Theorem states that, when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal , the resulting alternate interior angles are congruent .

2) Formally, we can say that if two lines are parallel, then consecutive interior angles are supplementary. We refer to this as the consecutive interior angles postulate.

3) When the lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are congruent . When two lines are cut by a transversal, the pairs of angles on one side of the transversal and inside the two lines are called the consecutive interior angles.

4) The Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem states that, when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal , the resulting alternate exterior angles are congruent.

Juan rode 72 km on his bike in 4 hours. Find the unite rate.
Westkost [7]

Answer:

18 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate, we must find the rate in kilometers per hour.

Let’s divide the total kilometers by the total number of hours.

unit rate = kilometers/hours

Juan rode 72 kilometers in 4 hours.

unit rate = 72 kilometers/ 4 hours

unit rate = 72 km/4 hrs

unit rate = 18 km / hr

The unit rate is 18 kilometers per hour.
