Answer:
(2.83 , 1 , 4)
Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite these equations in matrix form
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2&-1\\4&-2&-2\\3&3&-4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\2\\-4\end{array}\right] \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2%262%26-1%5C%5C4%26-2%26-2%5C%5C3%263%26-4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%5C%5C2%5C%5C-4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C)
we can write it like this,

so to solve it we need to take the inverse of the 3 x 3 matrix A then multiply it by B.
We get the inverse of matrix A,
![A^{-1}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7/15&1/6&-1/5\\1/3&-1/6&0\\3/5&0&-2/5\end{array}\right] \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%5E%7B-1%7D%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D7%2F15%261%2F6%26-1%2F5%5C%5C1%2F3%26-1%2F6%260%5C%5C3%2F5%260%26-2%2F5%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%20%5C%5C)
now multiply the matrix with B
![X=A^{-1}B\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7/15&1/6&-1/5\\1/3&-1/6&0\\3/5&0&-2/5\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\2\\-4\end{array}\right] \\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2.83\\1\\4\end{array}\right] \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=X%3DA%5E%7B-1%7DB%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D7%2F15%261%2F6%26-1%2F5%5C%5C1%2F3%26-1%2F6%260%5C%5C3%2F5%260%26-2%2F5%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%5C%5C2%5C%5C-4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2.83%5C%5C1%5C%5C4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5C)
You have 2 options.
I will show you the most efficient one, but later I will tell you the other.
-4x+6y=12
6y=4x+12
y=4/6x+12
y=2/3x+12
This tells us the point (0,12) as 12 is where it meets the y-axis (that is why you add it)
And then using the slope, 2/3 we can get (2,15) (which is up 3, right 2)
Just graph those, I would show you exactly, but I cannot add attachments sadly.
The other way (which I won’t show it all as the results would end out with the same line) is to fill in x, then y, with 0
So -4*0+6y=12 which means x=0 and you are solving for y and -4x+6*0=12 which means y=0 and you are solving for x
Answer:
hmmmmm i need more details <3
For given problem:
Put midpoint of ellipse, (0,0) at epicenter of bridge at
ground level.
Specified length of vertical major axis = 70=2a
a=35
a^2=1225
Equation of ellipse:
x^2/b^2+y^2=1
plug in coordinates of given point on ellipse(25, 10)
25^2/b^2 + 10^2/a^2 = 1
625/b^2 + 100/1225=1
625/b^2 = 1 - 100/ 1225 = .918
b^2 = 625/.918 ≈ 681
b ≈ 26.09
length of minor axis = 2b = 2(26.09) ≈ 52.16 ft
Span of bridge ≈ 52.16 ft
