Answer:
<u>Option b. (x = 3, y = 20, z = -14)</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
2x + 2y + 3z = 4
5x + 3y + 5z = 5
3x + 4y + 6z = 5
Solve using Cramer’s rule
∴ ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2&3\\5&3&5\\3&4&6\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\5\\5\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2%262%263%5C%5C5%263%265%5C%5C3%264%266%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%5C%5C5%5C%5C5%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
∴A = ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2&3\\5&3&5\\3&4&6\end{array}\right] = -1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2%262%263%5C%5C5%263%265%5C%5C3%264%266%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20-1)
Ax = ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&2&3\\5&3&5\\5&4&6\end{array}\right] = -3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%262%263%5C%5C5%263%265%5C%5C5%264%266%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20-3)
Ay = ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&4&3\\5&5&5\\3&5&6\end{array}\right] =-20\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2%264%263%5C%5C5%265%265%5C%5C3%265%266%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D-20%5C%5C)
Az = ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2&2&4\\5&3&5\\3&4&5\end{array}\right] = 14](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D2%262%264%5C%5C5%263%265%5C%5C3%264%265%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%2014)
∴ x = Ax/A = -3/-1 = 3
y = Ay/A = -20/-1 = 20
z = Az/A = 14/-1 = -14
<u>So, the answer is option b. (x = 3, y = 20, z = -14)</u>
x is time and y is pencils that you have
'starts with 90' so at x=0, plot y=90
'gives away 15 every hour' so for every 1 hour, move 15 down on y
so at x=1, do 90-15=75 pencils
at x=2, do 75-15=60 pencils
etc
until you get to
x=6, do 15-15=0 pencils then stop because you can't give away 15 pencils when you have 0
see attachment for plot
I don't know how your segment tool works so you do it
if it draws a line, you only need 2 points, just do when x=0, y=90 and when x=6, y=0
