Answer:

x = -0.6

y = 2.2

z = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y - 2z = -3

x + 3y - z = 4

3x + 4y - z = 5

Rewrite the system in matrix form and solve it by Gaussian Elimination (Gauss-Jordan elimination)

2 1 -2 -3

1 3 -1 4

3 4 -1 5

R1 / 2 → R1 (divide the 1 row by 2)

1 0.5 -1 -1.5

1 3 -1 4

3 4 -1 5

R2 - 1 R1 → R2 (multiply 1 row by 1 and subtract it from 2 row); R3 - 3 R1 → R3 (multiply 1 row by 3 and subtract it from 3 row)

1 0.5 -1 -1.5

0 2.5 0 5.5

0 2.5 2 9.5

R2 / 2.5 → R2 (divide the 2 row by 2.5)

1 0.5 -1 -1.5

0 1 0 2.2

0 2.5 2 9.5

R1 - 0.5 R2 → R1 (multiply 2 row by 0.5 and subtract it from 1 row); R3 - 2.5 R2 → R3 (multiply 2 row by 2.5 and subtract it from 3 row)

1 0 -1 -2.6

0 1 0 2.2

0 0 2 4

R3 / 2 → R3 (divide the 3 row by 2)

1 0 -1 -2.6

0 1 0 2.2

0 0 1 2

R1 + 1 R3 → R1 (multiply 3 row by 1 and add it to 1 row)

1 0 0 -0.6

0 1 0 2.2

0 0 1 2

x = -0.6

y = 2.2

z = 2

Find the first 4 terms of the sequence.t(n) = -3n- 1b. t(15)=
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

(a)-4, -7, -10 and -13.

(b) -46

Explanation:

Given the sequence:

t\mleft(n\mright)=-3n-1

(a) The first four terms are obtained by substituting n=1,2,3 and 4 respectively.

\begin{gathered} t\mleft(1\mright)=-3(1)-1=-3-1=-4 \\ t(2)=-3(2)-1=-6-1=-7 \\ t(3)=-3(3)-1=-9-1=-10 \\ t(4)=-3(4)-1=-12-1=-13 \end{gathered}

The first 4 terms of the sequence are -4, -7, -10 and -13.

(b)t(15)

\begin{gathered} t(15)=-3(15)-1 \\ =-45-1 \\ =-46 \end{gathered}

A ride-share company has a fee that includes a fixed cost and a cost that depends on both the time spent travelling, in minutes,
zlopas [31]

Answer:

the cost of Roy's ride is $23.05

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Let, Cost of per minute charge is 'x' & Cost Of Per Kilometre charge is y .

  • Given, A ride-share company has a fee of the fixed cost of a ride is $2.55 .
  • And, The Total cost of the Ride depends on both the time spent on travelling(in minutes), and the distance travelled(in kilometres) .

⇒ Judy's ride costs $16.75 . but the actual cost after deducting the fixed charge is 16.75-2.55 = $14.20, took 8 minutes & The distance travelled was 10 km. Thus, the equation for the journey is 8x+10y=14.20 ⇒ Equ. 1

⇒ Pat's ride costs $30.35 . but the actual cost after deducting the fixed charge is 30.35-2.55 = $27.80, took 20 minutes & The distance travelled was 18 km. Thus, the equation for the journey is 20x+18y=27.80 ⇒ Equ. 2

Now, on Solving Equation 1 & 2, We get

x=0.4(Cost of per minute charge) & y=1.1(Cost Of Per Kilometre charge)

Now, Roy's ride took 10 minutes & The distance travelled was 15 km . Thus, the cost of Roy's Ride is 10x+15y ⇔ 10×0.4 + 15×1.1 ⇔ $20.5

Hence, the total cost of Roy's ride is 20.5 + 2.55(fixed cost) = $23.05
