The answer is 6. When x is -3 then you divide -3 by 3 and the quotient is -1. So 5-(-1) is also equal to 5+1 which equals 6
Let the three numbers be x, y, and z.
If the sum of the three numbers is 3, then x+y+z=3
If subtracting the second number from the sum of the first and third numbers gives 9, then x+z-y=9
If subtracting the third number from the sum of the first and second numbers gives -5, then x+y-z=-5
This forms the system of equations:
[1] x+y+z=3
[2] x-y+z=9
[3] x+y-z=-5
First, to find y, let's take do [1]-[2]:
x+y+z=3
-x+y-z=-9
2y=-6
y=-3
Then, to find z, let's do [1]-[3]:
x+y+z=3
-x+-y+z=5
2z=8
z=4
Now that you have y and z, plug them into [1] to find x:
x+y+z=3
x-3+4=3
x=2
So the three numbers are 2,-3, and 4.
Answer: -7/12
Step-by-step explanation: an number multiplied by 1 is itself
23. Kim and Jay leave at the same time to travel 25 miles going to the beach.
Kim drives 9 miles in 12 minutes
Jay drives 10 miles in 15 minutes.
Question: who will arrive first?
Unit rate of Kim
=> 9 miles in 12 minutes
=> 0.75 miles / minutes
=> 25 / 0.75
It will take 33.33 minutes for Kim to arrive
Unit rate of Jay
10 miles in 15 minutes.
=> 10 miles /15 minutes
=> 0.67 miles /minute
=> 25 / 0.67
It will take Jay 37.31 minutes to arrive at the beach.
SO Kim will arrive first
