How would you go about finding the solution to this system of three equations in three variables? Be specific. For example, you

might want to add the first two equations first, or multiply the third one by two first and use elimination, etc. (No right answer exists.)

I:2x – y + z = 7
II:x + 2y – 5z = -1
III:x – y = 6

you can first use III and substitute x or y to eliminate it in I and II (in this case x):
III: x=6+y
-> substitute x in I and II:
I': 2*(6+y)-y+z=7
12+2y-y+z=7
y+z=-5

II':(6+y)+2y-5z=-1
3y+6-5z=-1
3y-5z=-7

then you can subtract II' from 3*I' to eliminate y:
3*I'=3y+3z=-15

3*I'-II':
3y+3z-(3y-5z)=-15-(-7)
8z=-8
z=-1

insert z in II' to calculate y:
3y-5z=-7
3y+5=-7
3y=-12
y=-4

insert y into III to calculate x:
x-(-4)=6
x+4=6
x=2

so the solution is
x=2
y=-4
z=-1

The expression LaTeX: -5t^2+40t
dlinn [17]

Answer:

8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

h = - 5t² + 40t

When the object hits the ground then h = 0

Substitute h = 0 into the function and solve for t

- 5t² + 40t = 0 ← factor out - 5t from each term

- 5t(t - 8) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for t

- 5t = 0 ⇒ t = 0

t - 8 = 0 ⇒ t = 8

t= 0 denotes the time of launch

t = 8 denotes the time it hits the ground
