Answer:

x= 3, y=0, z= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label the 3 given equations first.

2x +3y +4z= 10 -----(1)

3x +2y -4z= 5 -----(2)

x +4y +2z= 5 -----(3)

(1) +(2):

This is to eliminate the z term.

2x +3y +4z +3x +2y -4z= 10 +5

5x +5y= 15

Divide by 5 on both sides:

x +y= 3 -----(4)

(3) ×2:

2x +8y +4z= 10 -----(5)

(2) +(5):

This is to eliminate z term.

3x +2y -4z + 2x +8y +4z= 5 +10

5x +10y= 15

Divide by 5 throughout.

x +2y= 3 -----(6)

(6) -(4):

x +2y -(x +y)= 3 -3

x +2y -x -y= 0

y= 0

subst. y=0 into (4):

x +0= 3

x= 3

subst. x=3, y=0 into (3):

3 +4(0) +2z= 5

3 +2z= 5

2z= 5 -3

2z= 2

z= 2÷2

z= 1

What is the length of BC? If your answer is not an integer, leave it in simplest radical form?

nexus9112 [7]

ANSWER

$|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft$

EXPLANATION

The given right triangle is an isosceles triangle because

$m \: < \: B = 45 \degree = m \: < \: C$
This implies that,

$|AB|=12ft=|AC|$

From the Pythagoras Theorem,

$|BC|^2=|AB|^2+|AC|^2$

$|BC|^2= {12}^{2} + {12}^{2}$

$|BC|^2=2 \times {12}^{2}$

$|BC| = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} \times 2 }$

$|BC|=12\sqrt{2}\: ft$

Write an equation of the circle with center (-6, 2) and diameter 10.

marshall27 [118]

Solution:

We know that the formula to write the equation of a circle is (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r², where h is the x coordinate, k is the y-coordinate, r is the radius of circle, and the center of circle is (-6,2).

Finding the radius of the circle.
