Which of these expressions is equivalent to 3(1-2) А) 3х - 6 в) За – 2 с) 3х + 2 D) 3х +6

blondinia [14]

The expression:

3 (x - 2)

indicates that the number 3 before the parenthesis is multiplying the expression inside the parenthesis.

Then in order to do such we use what is called the distributive property which tells us to "distrubute" suche multiplication among the two term that are in the parenthesis:

3 x - 3 * 2

3 x - 6

Which is the first option in your answer list.

James left a bin outside in his garden to collect rainwater. He notices that 1/4 gallon of water fills 2/3 of the bin. Write and

Gala2k [10]

¼ gal = ⅔ bin

x gal = 1 bin

(1/4) ⁄(2/3) = x

(1 ⁄ 4) • (3 ⁄ 2) = x

x = 3/8 total gallons required to fill entire bin

Solve the system of equations by row-reduction. At each step, show clearly the symbol of the linear combinations that allow you

adell [148]

Answer:

1) The solution of the system is

$\left\begin{array}{ccc}x_1&=&5\\x_2&=&8\\x_3&=&-13\end{array}\right$

2) The solution of the system is

$\left\begin{array}{ccc}x_1&=&2\\x_2&=&-7\\x_3&=&-1\end{array}\right$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To solve the system of equations

$\left\begin{array}{ccccccc}&3x_2&-5x_3&=&89\\6x_1&&+x_3&=&17\\x_1&-x_2&+8x_3&=&-107\end{array}\right$

using the row reduction method you must:

Step 1: Write the augmented matrix of the system

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 0 & 3 & -5 & 89 \\\\ 6 & 0 & 1 & 17 \\\\ 1 & -1 & 8 & -107 \end{array} \right]$

Step 2: Swap rows 1 and 2

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 6 & 0 & 1 & 17 \\\\ 0 & 3 & -5 & 89 \\\\ 1 & -1 & 8 & -107 \end{array} \right]$

Step 3: $\left(R_1=\frac{R_1}{6}\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & \frac{1}{6} & \frac{17}{6} \\\\ 0 & 3 & -5 & 89 \\\\ 1 & -1 & 8 & -107 \end{array} \right]$

Step 4: $\left(R_3=R_3-R_1\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & \frac{1}{6} & \frac{17}{6} \\\\ 0 & 3 & -5 & 89 \\\\ 0 & -1 & \frac{47}{6} & - \frac{659}{6} \end{array} \right]$

Step 5: $\left(R_2=\frac{R_2}{3}\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & \frac{1}{6} & \frac{17}{6} \\\\ 0 & 1 & - \frac{5}{3} & \frac{89}{3} \\\\ 0 & -1 & \frac{47}{6} & - \frac{659}{6} \end{array} \right]$

Step 6: $\left(R_3=R_3+R_2\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & \frac{1}{6} & \frac{17}{6} \\\\ 0 & 1 & - \frac{5}{3} & \frac{89}{3} \\\\ 0 & 0 & \frac{37}{6} & - \frac{481}{6} \end{array} \right]$

Step 7: $\left(R_3=\left(\frac{6}{37}\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & \frac{1}{6} & \frac{17}{6} \\\\ 0 & 1 & - \frac{5}{3} & \frac{89}{3} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -13 \end{array} \right]$

Step 8: $\left(R_1=R_1-\left(\frac{1}{6}\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & 0 & 5 \\\\ 0 & 1 & - \frac{5}{3} & \frac{89}{3} \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -13 \end{array} \right]$

Step 9: $\left(R_2=R_2+\left(\frac{5}{3}\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & 0 & 5 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 8 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -13 \end{array} \right]$

Step 10: Rewrite the system using the row reduced matrix:

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & 0 & 5 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 8 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -13 \end{array} \right] \rightarrow \left\begin{array}{ccc}x_1&=&5\\x_2&=&8\\x_3&=&-13\end{array}\right$

2) To solve the system of equations

$\left\begin{array}{ccccccc}4x_1&-x_2&+3x_3&=&12\\2x_1&&+9x_3&=&-5\\x_1&+4x_2&+6x_3&=&-32\end{array}\right$

using the row reduction method you must:

Step 1:

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 4 & -1 & 3 & 12 \\\\ 2 & 0 & 9 & -5 \\\\ 1 & 4 & 6 & -32 \end{array} \right]$

Step 2: $\left(R_1=\frac{R_1}{4}\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & - \frac{1}{4} & \frac{3}{4} & 3 \\\\ 2 & 0 & 9 & -5 \\\\ 1 & 4 & 6 & -32 \end{array} \right]$

Step 3: $\left(R_2=R_2-\left(2\right)R_1\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & - \frac{1}{4} & \frac{3}{4} & 3 \\\\ 0 & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{15}{2} & -11 \\\\ 1 & 4 & 6 & -32 \end{array} \right]$

Step 4: $\left(R_3=R_3-R_1\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & - \frac{1}{4} & \frac{3}{4} & 3 \\\\ 0 & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{15}{2} & -11 \\\\ 0 & \frac{17}{4} & \frac{21}{4} & -35 \end{array} \right]$

Step 5: $\left(R_2=\left(2\right)R_2\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & - \frac{1}{4} & \frac{3}{4} & 3 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 15 & -22 \\\\ 0 & \frac{17}{4} & \frac{21}{4} & -35 \end{array} \right]$

Step 6: $\left(R_1=R_1+\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)R_2\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & \frac{9}{2} & - \frac{5}{2} \\\\ 0 & 1 & 15 & -22 \\\\ 0 & \frac{17}{4} & \frac{21}{4} & -35 \end{array} \right]$

Step 7: $\left(R_3=R_3-\left(\frac{17}{4}\right)R_2\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & \frac{9}{2} & - \frac{5}{2} \\\\ 0 & 1 & 15 & -22 \\\\ 0 & 0 & - \frac{117}{2} & \frac{117}{2} \end{array} \right]$

Step 8: $\left(R_3=\left(- \frac{2}{117}\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & \frac{9}{2} & - \frac{5}{2} \\\\ 0 & 1 & 15 & -22 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 \end{array} \right]$

Step 9: $\left(R_1=R_1-\left(\frac{9}{2}\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & 2 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 15 & -22 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 \end{array} \right]$

Step 10: $\left(R_2=R_2-\left(15\right)R_3\right)$

$\left[ \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & 2 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & -7 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 \end{array} \right]$

Step 11:

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|c} 1 & 0 & 0 & 2 \\\\ 0 & 1 & 0 & -7 \\\\ 0 & 0 & 1 & -1 \end{array} \right]\rightarrow \left\begin{array}{ccc}x_1&=&2\\x_2&=&-7\\x_3&=&-1\end{array}\right$
