The value of " X " is...

Mathematics
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply the first equation by 2 and add the second, you eliminate z from the resulting equation.

If you add the first and third equations, you also eliminate z from the result.

Both of these resulting equations will have 3y as their second term, so you can subtract the first result from the second to eliminate the y variable and find the value of x.

This process has a shortcut. If we call the equations A, B, and C, the first elimination is done by calculating 2A+B. The second elimination calculates A+C. To find x, we compute ...

... (A+C) -(2A+B) = -A -B +C

... -(2x +y -z) -(-x +y +2z) +(3x +2y +z) = -3 -0 +9

... x(-2+1+3) +y(-1-1+2) +z(1-2+1) = 6

... 2x = 6

... x = 3

_____

Since this is a college math question, we presume you have a graphing calculator and are expected to know how to use it. The solution to systems of linear equations on such a calculator is usually pretty simple. A TI-84 can tell you the values of x, y, and z pretty easily: (x, y, z) = (3, -1, 2).

The best way to solve this is to put it into a proportion:
\frac{x}{84} = \frac{ \frac{1}{4} }{ \frac{3}{4} }
So you cross multiply to get:
21= \frac{3}{4} x (the 21 is from \frac{1}{4}•84)
Then multiply by \frac{4}{3}
And you get $28, so the reduced price would be $28.

What's 5 - the square root of x + 10 = the square root of 7 - x
Tcecarenko [31]
\bf 5-\sqrt{x+10}=\sqrt{7-x}\impliedby \textit{squaring both sides}
\\\\\\
(5-\sqrt{x+10})^2=(\sqrt{7-x})^2
\\\\\\
(5^2)-10\sqrt{x+10}+(x+10)=7-x
\\\\\\
35-10\sqrt{x+10}+x=7-x\implies 28-10\sqrt{x+10}+2x=0
\\\\\\
2x+28=10\sqrt{x+10}\implies x+14=5\sqrt{x+10}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
squaring\ both\\
sides\ again
\end{array}
\\\\\\


\bf (x^2)+28x+(14^2)=5^2(x+10)\implies x^2+28x+196=25x+250
\\\\\\
\begin{array}{lcclll}
x^2&+3x&-54&=0\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&-6+9&-6\cdot 9
\end{array} \implies (x+9)(x-6)=0\implies 
\begin{cases}
x+9=0\\
\boxed{x=-9}\\
-----\\
x-6=0\\
\boxed{x=6}
\end{cases}

During their first home game, the Eagles soccer team drew a total of 176 fans. By the second game, this number grew to 202 fans.
vazorg [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial # = 176 fans

Final # = 202 fans

Increase = 202 - 176 = 26 fans

% increase = 100% x (Increase / initial #)

= 100 x (26/176)

= 100 x 0.1477

= 14.78%

As an estimation We are told 5 miles is 8 km convert 27. 5 miles to km​
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

approx. 44 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that :

5 miles ------> 8 km

we divide both sides by 5 to get the unit rate:

1 miles ------>  8/5 km

Therefore:

27.5 miles -----> 27.5 miles x (8/5) = 44 km
