The canl's water level is now 10.875 below sea level
because 2 1/4 or 2.25 +7=9.25 and 13/8 or 1.625+9.25=10.875
Let's call the three numbers x, y, and z.
The numbers are 3, 12, and 5.
x + y + z = 20
y = 4x
x + z = 8
We can rewrite the first equation because y is 4x, so
x + 4x + z = 20
5x + z = 20
And now we can use simultaneous equation rules to solve
5x + z = 20
x + z = 8
5x + z = 20
5x + 5z = 40
(subtract)
-4z + -20
÷ -4
z = 5
x + z = 8
x + 5 = 8
x = 3
y = 4x
y = 4 × 3
y = 12
I hope this helps!
Answer:
1: (4,1) x=4 y=1
2: (1,10) x=1 y=10
3: (-25/4,5) x= -25/4 y=5
