What is the solution of the system of equations?

Mathematics

Charra [1.4K]3 years ago

When we are given a system of 3 linear equations, with 3 variables, we proceed as follows:

We consider 2 pairs or equations, for example (1, 2) and (2, 3), and eliminate one of the variables in each pair, creating a system of 2 linear equations with 2 unknowns. 

Note that the third equation contains -2y which can be used to eliminate easily -6y in the second equation, and -4y in the fourth.

i) consider equations 1 and 3:

-3x-4y-3z=-7
5x-2y+5z=9

multiply the second equation by -2:

-3x-4y-3z=-7
-10x+4y-10z=-18

adding the 2 equations we have -13x-13z=-25

ii) consider equations 2 and 3. Multiply the third equation by -3:

    2x-6y+2z=3
-15x+6y-15z=-27

adding the 2 equations we have -13x-13z=-24

So we got -13x-13z is -25, but also -24. this means the system is inconsistent, so it has no solution.

Answer: the system has no solutions

Five less than twice the value of a number is equal to three times the quantity of
MissTica

Answer:

These types of questions are not daunting if you break it down. First look at  "Five less than twice the value of a number."

"Twice the value of a number" is simply 2x.

"Five less" is simply -5, so for the first part we have (2x-5)

Next, analyze the second part. "Three times the quantity of four more than one half the number."

Looking at "Three times the quantity" simply means "3 times something".

"the quantity of four more than one half the number" is 4 + "one half the number" or 4 + (1/2)x.

So the second part is simply 3(4+x/2).

Finally we finish the entire equation, (2x-5) = 3(4+x/2) then solve for x.

2x-5 = 12 + (3/2)x

2x-(3/2)x = 17

x/2 = 17

x=34

Checking the left side, (2x-5) = 2(34) - 5 = 63.

Checking the right side, 3(4+(34/2)) = 3(4+17) = 3(21) = 63.
