Answer:
The system is dependent:
x=-3t-7
y=-5t-15
z=t
Step-by-step explanation:
I chose to use a matrix to solve this system of equations. Once put into matrix form, you need to row reduce the system into its simplest form (Row Reduced Echelon form). Doing this, we find that the system is dependent on the z variable. And following usual procedures, we let z equal some other letter; which is t in this case. Then we isolate each variable to get the answer.

If you really want to figure this out you make an equation to solve for the time
let's let
x = time from Elena to Jada and
x = time from Jada to Elena
12 then the equation
12 = 5x +3x
would help figuring out their distance say for one of them
12 = x(5+3)
12/8 = x
1.5 = x

2500 * 0.20 = 500 dollars
Answer:
8.49
Step-by-step explanation:
there is a little formula related to the famous formula of Pythagoras.
it says that the height of a triangle is the square root of the product of both segments of the baseline (the segments the height splits the baseline into).
so, x is actuality the height of the triangle.
x = sqrt(3×24) = sqrt(72) = 8.49
