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:
b. The system is not in echelon form because the system is not organized in descending "stair step" pattern so that the index of the leading variables increases from the top to bottom.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given linear system has a equation which is not in echelon form. The echelon is a system which divides the data into rigid hierarchal groups. The given linear equation in not in echelon form as the leading variables are increased from top to bottom indicating descending stair step pattern.
Answer:
31043.09
Step-by-step explanation:
Kinda feel bad for the last person who answered! They were way off but still you need to learn from your mistakes! Welp this answer is STRAIGHT OFF THE BACK from delta MATH! So this IS correct! If this helped click the stars and the heart to help fellow students, educators, etc. Understand this answer is for certain correct! I would add the steps but there is alot!
18-->1
?----->10.6
18*10.6= 190.8 feet
