Given that (x+y+z)(xy+xz+yz)=18 and that x^2(y+z)+y^2(x+z)+z^2(x+y)=6 for real numbers x, y, and z, what is the value of xyz?

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+y+z)(xy+xz+yz)=18 Equation 1

x^2(y+z)+y^2(x+z)+z^2(x+y)=6 Equation 2

What is the value of xyz where each variable represents a real number?

Let's expand equation 1:

(x+y+z)(xy+xz+yz)=18

x(xy)+x(xz)+x(yz)+y(xy)+y(xz)+y(yz)+z(xy)+z(xz)+z(yz)=18

Simplify each term if can:

x^2y+x^2z+xyz+y^2x+xyz+y^2z+xyz+z^2x+z^2y=18

See if we can factor a little to get some of the left hand side of equation 2:

The first two terms have x^2 and if I factored x^2 from first two terms I would have x^2(y+z) which is the first term of left hand side of equation 2.

So let's see what happens if we gather the terms together that have the same variable squared together.

x^2y+x^2z+y^2x+y^2z+z^2y+z^2x+xyz+xyz+xyz=18

Factor the variable squared terms out of each binomial pairing:

x^2(y+z)+y^2(x+z)+z^2(y+x)+xyz+xyz+xyz=18

Replace the sum of those first three terms with what it equals which is 6 from the equation 2:

6+xyz+xyz+xyz=18

Combine like terms:

6+3xyz=18

Subtract 6 on both sides:

3xyz=12

Divide both sides by 3:

xyz=4

A bicycle lock has a four-digit code. The possible digits, 0 What is the probability that the lock code will begin with
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

0.1-0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find the number of the elements in the sample space, that is the total number of codes that can be produced.

The first digit is any of {0, 1, 2...,9}, that is 10 possibilities

the second digit is any of the remaining 9, after having picked one. 

and so on...

so in total there are 10*9*8*7 = 5040 codes.

a. What is the probability that the lock code will begin with 5?

Lets fix the first number as 5. Then there are 9 possibilities for the second digit, 8 for the third on and 7 for the last digit.

Thus, there are 1*9*8*7=504 codes which start with 5.

so 

P(first digit is five)=

b. What is the probability that the lock code will not contain the number 0? 

from the set {0, 1, 2...., } we exclude 0, and we are left with {1, 2, ...9}

from which we can form in total 9*8*7*6 codes which do not contain 0.

P(codes without 0)=n(codes without 0)/n(all codes)=(9*8*7*6)/(10*9*8*7)=6/10=0.6

Answer:

0.1 ; 0.6

Anarel [89]

Answer:

130 in^2 net area

136 in^2 gross area (counting the 6 in^2 scrap loss for the side cutouts)

Step-by-step explanation:

top=1.5x4=6

middle=1.5x4=6

bottom=3x4=12

sides=(2x3x8)-(2x1.5x2)=42

front & back=2x8x4=64

6+6+12+42+64=130
