Answer:

If she puts 0 in the box she would have a direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given : Lydia writes the equation y = 5x - __ with a missing value.

She puts a value in the box and says that the equation represents a direct variation.We have to choose the correct option from the given options that explain that  the equation could represent a direct variation.When two variables are such that one is a constant multiple of other, we said they are in Direct variation.

That is in form of y = ax , here y and x are in direct variation.Consider the given equation y = 5x  - __

For the equation to be in direct variation the value of missing term has to be 0.

then equation becomes,y = 5x

Thus, If she puts 0 in the box she would have a direct variation.

Option (a) is correct.

Please help!!<br> Write a matrix representing the system of equations
frozen [14]

Answer:

(4, -1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system of equations:

\left\{        \begin{array}{ll}            x+2y+z =5 \\    2x-y+2z=15\\3x+y-z=8        \end{array}    \right.

We can convert this to a matrix. In order to convert a triple system of equations to matrix, we can use the following format:

\begin{bmatrix}x_1& y_1& z_1&c_1\\x_2 & y_2 & z_2&c_2\\x_3&y_2&z_3&c_3 \end{bmatrix}

Importantly, make sure the coefficients of each variable align vertically, and that each equation aligns horizontally.

In order to solve this matrix and the system, we will have to convert this to the reduced row-echelon form, namely:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0& 0&x\\0 & 1 & 0&y\\0&0&1&z \end{bmatrix}

Where the (x, y, z) is our solution set.

Reducing:

With our system, we will have the following matrix:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\2 & -1 & 2&15\\3&1&-1&8 \end{bmatrix}

What we should begin by doing is too see how we can change each row to the reduced-form.

Notice that R₁ and R₂ are rather similar. In fact, we can cancel out the 1s in R₂. To do so, we can add R₂ to -2(R₁). This gives us:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\2+(-2) & -1+(-4) & 2+(-2)&15+(-10) \\3&1&-1&8 \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\0 & -5 & 0&5 \\3&1&-1&8 \end{bmatrix}

Now, we can multiply R₂ by -1/5. This yields:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ -\frac{1}{5}(0) & -\frac{1}{5}(-5) & -\frac{1}{5}(0)& -\frac{1}{5}(5) \\3&1&-1&8 \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\3&1&-1&8 \end{bmatrix}

From here, we can eliminate the 3 in R₃ by adding it to -3(R₁). This yields:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\3+(-3)&1+(-6)&-1+(-3)&8+(-15) \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&-5&-4&-7 \end{bmatrix}

We can eliminate the -5 in R₃ by adding 5(R₂). This yields:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0+(0)&-5+(5)&-4+(0)&-7+(-5) \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&0&-4&-12 \end{bmatrix}

We can now reduce R₃ by multiply it by -1/4:

\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\ -\frac{1}{4}(0)&-\frac{1}{4}(0)&-\frac{1}{4}(-4)&-\frac{1}{4}(-12) \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 2& 1&5\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&0&1&3 \end{bmatrix}

Finally, we just have to reduce R₁. Let's eliminate the 2 first. We can do that by adding -2(R₂). So:

\begin{bmatrix}1+(0) & 2+(-2)& 1+(0)&5+(-(-2))\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&0&1&3 \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0& 1&7\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&0&1&3 \end{bmatrix}

And finally, we can eliminate the second 1 by adding -(R₃):

\begin{bmatrix}1 +(0)& 0+(0)& 1+(-1)&7+(-3)\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&0&1&3 \end{bmatrix}\\\Rightarrow\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0& 0&4\\ 0 & 1 & 0& -1 \\0&0&1&3 \end{bmatrix}

Therefore, our solution set is (4, -1, 3)

And we're done!
