Answer:
b. (1, 3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.
It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:
a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18
b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice
c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18
d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18
This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:
2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1
-(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
Answer:
The GCF for the variable part is ab².
GCF<em>Variable</em>=ab²
Multiply the GCF of the numerical part 5 and the GCF of the variable part ab².
5ab²

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In essence, one needs to work their way backwards to solve this problem. Use the information to construct the function.
The function has verticle asymptotes at (x = 4) and (x = 5). This means that the denominator must have (x - 4) and (x - 5) in it. This is because a verticle asymptote indicates that the function cannot have a value at these points, the function jumps at these points. This is because the denominator of a fraction cannot be (0), the values (x - 4) and (x - 5) ensure this. Since if (x) equals (4) or (5) in this situation, the denominator would be (0) because of the zero product property (this states that any number times zero equals zero). So far we have assembled the function as the following:

The function has x-intercepts at (6, 0), and (0, 10). This means that the numerator must equal (0) when (x) is (6) or (10). Using similar logic that was applied to find the denominator, one can conclude that the numerator must be (
). Now one has this much of the function assembled

Finally one has to include the y-intercept of (0, 120). Currently, the y-intercept is (60). This is found by multiplying the constants together. (6 * 10) equals (60). One has to multiply this by (2) to get (120). Therefore, one must multiply the numerator by (2) in order to make the y-intercept (120). Thus the final function is the following:
