You cannot add row 2 to column 3 because they have different dimensions. You can do any of the other operations, but the only one that makes any sort of sense is ...
Multiply row 2 by -1 and add it to row 3
_____
It makes no sense to multiply a row by zero. That makes the entire row zero and makes the matrix useless for finding any sort of solution.
You can switch columns, but that doesn't get you any closer to a solution here.
If I were trying to find a solution, I might
switch rows 1 and 2
multiply the new row 1 by -3 and add it to the new row 2
multiply the new row 1 by 2 and add it to row 3
This sequence of operations will make the first column [1 0 0], reducing the problem to 2×2 from 3×3.
Answer:
91 child tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the number of child tickets sold. Then the number of adult tickets sold is (150-c) and the total revenue is ...
5.20c +8.70(150-c) = 986.50
-3.50c +1305 = 986.50 . . . . simplify
-3.50c = -318.50 . . . . . subtract 1305
c = -381.50/-3.50 = 91
The number of child tickets sold that day was 91.

Answer:
<em>Option D: 159 3/8 cm^3 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let us rewrite the dimensions, and the options to make this a little more clear ~ (dimensions) 5 cm, 8 1/2 cm, 3 3/4 cm ⇒ (options) 17 1/4 cm^3, 18 3/4 cm^3, 27 1/4 cm^3, and 159 3/8 cm^3
2. To find the volume of most 3-dimensional figures, you would have to multiply the Base * height, so for a rectagular prism ⇒ <em>Base * height = length * width * height</em>
3. Substitute and compute the volume through algebra:
5 cm * 8 1/2 cm * 3 3/4 cm =
5 cm * 17/2 cm * 15/4 cm =
85/2 cm^2 * 15/4 cm =
1275/8 cm^3 =
<em>159 3/8 cm^3</em>
4. This means that the<em> Volume of the Rectangular Prism = 159 3/8 cm^3 (Option D)</em>
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
The negative would just cancel the positives out. Therefore, since they are both adding together the same things the negatives would make the outcome 0.
