Each cube in this figure is a -centimeter cube. What are the dimensions of the prism? Select all that are true.

Subtract fraction and simplify if needed

Harrizon [31]

First you need to find the common denominator. both 6 and 7 go in to 42 evenly

multiply 5/6 by 7 to get 35/42
multiply 2/7 by 6 to get 12/42
subtract 12 from 35 to get 23

23/42

What is the solution of this system of linear equations?

creativ13 [48]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the first equation. Subtract 3x from both sides.

y−3x=−2

Consider the second equation. Subtract x from both sides.

y−2−x=0

Add 2 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

y−x=2

To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.

y−3x=−2,y−x=2

Choose one of the equations and solve it for y by isolating y on the left hand side of the equal sign.

y−3x=−2

Add 3x to both sides of the equation.

y=3x−2

Substitute 3x−2 for y in the other equation, y−x=2.

3x−2−x=2

Add 3x to −x.

2x−2=2

Add 2 to both sides of the equation.

2x=4

Divide both sides by 2.

x=2

Substitute 2 for x in y=3x−2. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for y directly.

y=3×2−2

Multiply 3 times 2.

y=6−2

Add −2 to 6.

y=4

The system is now solved.

y=4,x=2

Sally works 40 hours a week and makes $20 an hour, but her kids are in child care each day and the day care center charges her $

Maslowich

Answer:

$11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the number of hours she works by how much she gets paid per hour.

800

Multiply 50 times 7 (50 being the amount charged for her kid and 7 being the days of the week)

350

Subtract the 350 from the 800

450

Divide the 450 by the number of hours worked per week

450/40

Answer: 11.25

So Sally actually makes 11.25 per hour.

A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes the recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes

Lerok [7]

Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of $\frac{1}{3}$ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Correct Question: A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes. The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes. Which proportion represents the situation?

We have , A recipe for beef stew calls for 1 pound of beef and 3 potatoes , i.e.

Number of beef stew calls = 1

Number of potatoes = 3

Now , The recipe is doubled to include 2 pounds of beef and 6 potatoes i.e. for every 2 pounds of beef we have 6 potatoes

⇒ $2/6$

⇒ $\frac{2}{6}$

⇒ $\frac{2}{2(3)}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore , Pounds of beef and potatoes are in ratio or proportion of $\frac{1}{3}$ .

Solve the following system of equations: 2x + 4y − 3z = −7 3x + y + 4z = −12 x + 3y + 4z = 4

lukranit [14]

2x + 4y − 3z = −7 ---> first equation

3x + y + 4z = −12 ---> second equation

x + 3y + 4z = 4 ---> third equation

We try to eliminate z and make two equations

Multiply first equation by 4 and second equation by 3. then add both equations

8x + 16y -12z = -28

9x + 3y +12z = -36

----------------------------

17x + 19y = -64 ---------------> equation 4

multiply third equation by -1 and add second and third equation

3x + y + 4z = −12

-x - 3y - 4z = -4

-------------------------------------

2x -2y = -16 ---------------> equation 5

Multiply equation 4 by 2 and equation by 19

34x + 38y = -128

38x - 38y = -304

------------------------------------

72x = -432

Divide by 72 on both sides

x = -6

use equation 2x -2y = -16 ---------------> equation 5

2(-6) - 2y = -16

-12 -2y = -16

-2y = -4

So y = 2

Now plug in 2 for y and -6 for x

Using any one of the three equations

x + 3y + 4z = 4

-6 + 3(2) +4z = 4

4z = 4 (divide by 4 on both sides)

So z=1

So x= -6, y = 2 and z= 1
