Kelsey says that to solve the equation 3x + 6 = 24, the first step should be to subtract 6 from each side of the equation. Dana

says the first step should be to divide each term by 3. Decide and explain if Kelsey or Dana is doing the first step correctly.

Answer:

Kelsey is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the rules when solving an equation is that you need to isolate the variable, meaning that it just needs to be x by itself. To do that, you would need to start by subtracting 6. If you were to divide by 3 first, the answer would be twice what it should be.

Find the values of &lt; and y.<br> (8x + 7)<br> 5yº<br> (7y -- 34)<br> = (2x - 4)^
Lilit [14]

Answer:

x = 11

y = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that opposite angles (or vertical angles) are equal.

So

8x + 7 = 9x - 4

Subtract 8x from both sides of the equation

8x - 8x + 7 = 9x - 8x - 4

7 = x - 4

Add 4 to both sides of the equation

7 + 4 = x - 4 + 4

11 = x

Looking at the other 2 angles,

5y = 7y - 34

Subtract 7 y from both sides of the equation

5y - 7y = 7y - 7y - 34

-2y = -34

Divide both sides by -2

-2y/-2 = -34/-2

y = 17

matrenka [14]

Answer:

False, counterexample below

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the unit vectors of R^3 by e_1=(1,0,0), e_2=(0,1,0), e_3=(0,0,1). Now consider v_1=e_1, v_2=2e_1 and v_3=e_3. We have that v_1, v_2,v_3 \in \mathbb{R}^3. Also, the vector v_3 is not a linear combination of v_1, v_2 because any linear combination of these two vectors will have third coordinate zero, but v_3 has third coordinate 1 so they can't be equal.

However, the set \{v_1, v_2,v_3\} is not linearly independent, because 2v_1-v_2+0v_3=0 is a non-trivial linear combination of these vectors that equals zero.
