Answer:

-0.3n + 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can eliminate the parentheses, obtaining:

0.5n - 0.3 - 0.8n + 0.9

and then combine like terms, obtaining:

-0.3n + 0.6

Answer:

-0.3n + 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

if we write out the entire expression we have:

0.5n - 0.3 - 0.8n + 0.9 (two negative signs create a positive sign)

then we add and subtract

and receive

-0.3n + 0.6

Answer:

LA = 120 sq cm

SA = 132 sq. cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

LA = ph where p = perimeter of the base and h = the height of prism.

Your base is a triangle. The third side = $\sqrt{5^{2} - 3^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{25 - 9} = \sqrt{16} = 4$

Now, the perimeter of the triangle is 3 + 4 + 5 = 12

So, LA = 12(10) = 120 sq cm

The area of the base is the area of a triangle. A = bh/2 = 4(3)/2 = 6

SA = 2B + LA where B is the area of the base

SA = 2(6) + 120 = 12 + 120 = 132 sq. cm.

Solve using elimination x+y-2z=8 5x-3y+z=-6 -2x-y+4z=-13

Free_Kalibri [48]

So here is your answer with LaTeX issued format interpretation. Full process elucidated briefly, below:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}x + y - 2z = 8 \\ 5x - 3y + 2 = - 6 \\ - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 \end{alignedat}$

For this equation to get obtained under the impression of those variables we have to eliminate them individually for moving further and simplifying the linear equation with three variables along the axis.

Multiply the equation of x + y - 2z = 8 by a number with a value of 5; Here this becomes; 5x + 5y - 10z = 40; So:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}5x + 5y - 10z = 40 \\ 5x - 3y + z = - 6 \\ - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 \end{alignedat}$

Pair up the equations in a way to eliminate the provided variable on our side, that is; "x":

5x - 3y + z = - 6

-

5x + 5y - 10z = 40
______________

- 8y + 11z = - 46

Therefore, we are getting.

$\begin{alignedat}{3}5x + 5y - 10z = 40 \\ - 8y + 11z = - 46 \\ - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 \end{alignedat}$

Multiply the equation of 5x + 5y - 10z = - 40 by a number with a value of 2; Here this becomes; 10x + 10y - 20z = 80.

Multiply the equation of - 2x - y + 4z = - 13 by a number with a value of 5; Here this becomes; - 10x - 5y + 20z = - 65; So:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 8y + 11z = - 46 \\ - 10x - 5y + 20z = - 65 \end{alignedat}$

Pair up the equations in a way to eliminate the provided variables on our side, that is; "x" and "z":

- 10x - 5y + 20z = - 65

+
10x + 10y - 20z = 80
__________________

5y = 15

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 8y + 11z = - 46 \\ 5y = 15 \end{alignedat}$

Multiply the equation of - 8y + 11z = - 46 by a number with a value of 5; Here this becomes; - 40y + 55z = - 230.

Multiply the equation of 5y = 15 by a number with a value of 8; Here this becomes; 40y = 120; So:

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 40y + 55z = - 690 \\ 40y = 120 \end{alignedat}$

Pair up the equations in a way to eliminate the provided variables on our side, that is; "y":

40y = 120

+

- 40y + 55z = - 230
_________________

55z = - 110

$\begin{alignedat}{3}10x + 10y - 20z = 80 \\ - 40y + 55z = - 230 \\ 55z = - 110 \end{alignedat}$

Solving for the variable of 'z':

$\mathsf{55z = - 110}$

$\bf{\dfrac{55z}{55} = \dfrac{-110}{55}}$

Cancel out the common factor acquired on the numerator and denominator, that is, "55":

$z = - \dfrac{\overbrace{\sout{110}}^{2}}{\underbrace{\sout{55}}_{1}}$

$\boxed{\mathbf{z = - 2}}$

Solving for variable "y":

$\mathbf{\therefore \quad - 40y - 55 \big(- 2 \big) = - 230}$

$\mathbf{- 40y - 55 \times 2 = - 230}$

$\mathbf{- 40y - 110 = - 230}$

$\mathbf{- 40y - 110 + 110 = - 230 + 110}$

Adding the numbered value as 110 into this equation (in previous step).

$\mathbf{- 40y = - 120}$

Divide by - 40.

$\mathbf{\dfrac{- 40y}{- 40} = \dfrac{- 120}{- 40}}$

$\mathbf{y = \dfrac{- 120}{- 40}}$

$\boxed{\mathbf{y = 3}}$

Solve for variable "x":

$\mathbf{10x + 10y - 20z = 80}$

$\mathbf{Since, \: z = - 2; \quad y = 3}$

$\mathbf{10x + 10 \times 3 - 20 \times (- 2) = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 10 \times 3 + 20 \times 2 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 30 + 20 \times 2 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 30 + 40 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 70 = 80}$

$\mathbf{10x + 70 - 70 = 80 - 70}$

$\mathbf{10x = 10}$

Divide by this numbered value $\mathbf{10}$ to get the final value for the variable "x".

$\mathbf{\dfrac{10x}{10} = \dfrac{10}{10}}$

The numbered values in the numerator and the denominator are the same, on both the sides. This will mean the "x" variable will be left on the left hand side and numbered values "10" will give a product of "1" after the division is done. On the right hand side the numbered values get divided to obtain the final solution for final system of equation for variable "x" as "1".

$\boxed{\mathbf{x = 1}}$

Final solutions for the respective variables in the form of " (x, y, z) " is:

$\boxed{\mathbf{\underline{\Bigg(1, \: \: 3, \: \: - 2 \Bigg)}}}$

Hope it helps.

Making coconut cookies. The recipe calls for 420 g of coconut and 120 g of sugar. Only has 252 g of coconut. How much sugar must

geniusboy [140]

Answer: 72 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "s" the amount of sugar in grams that must be used for 252 grams of coconut to keep the same ratio of coconut to sugar.

Knowing that in the recipe for the coconut cookies, should be 420 grams of coconut and 120 grams of sugar, and you only have 252 grams of coconut, you can set up this proportion to find "s":

$\frac{420grams}{120grams}=\frac{252grams}{s}$
