Answer:

  • (3, -4, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The last equation has 2 variables

If we double the first equation and subtract the second one from it, we get rid of y and then comparing the new equation with the last one we can easily solve it

<u>Step 1</u>

  • 2(2x + y + 3z) = 2*20
  • 4x + 2y + 6z = 40

<u>Step 2</u>

  • 4x - x + 2y - 2y + 6z - (-z) = 40 - (-11)
  • 3x + 7z = 51

<u>Step 3</u>

  • 3x + 7z - (3x - 2z) = 51 - (-3)
  • 7z + 2z = 54
  • 9z = 54
  • z = 6

<u>Then finding x</u>

  • 3x - 2*6 = -3
  • 3x = 12 - 3
  • 3x = 9
  • x = 3

<u>Then finding y using the first equation</u>

  • 2*3 + y + 3*6 = 20
  • y + 24 = 20
  • y = -4

<u>The answer:</u>

  • (3, -4, 6)

On the ceiling of a cavern, a stalactite grows downward
Tcecarenko [31]
The stalactites become 0.004 + 0.006 = 0.01 inches closer each year, and begin 10 feet apart, or 120 inches apart. 

let y be the distance between them, and x be the number of years that go by:
y = -0.01x + 120

We want to find where y = 0, where they meet:
0 = -0.01x + 120        Add 0.01x to both sides
0.01x = 120               Multiply both sides by 100
x = 12,000 

The stalagmite and stalactite will meet in 12,000 years

A breathalyser test is used by police in an area to determine whether a driver has an excess of alcohol in their blood. The devi
Xelga [282]

Answer: 1)The drivers with low alcohol in take from the breathlyser, being above the limit, A = 5/100;

2)The drivers above the alcohol limit, give reading below that level, B = 15/100;

3) The drivers above the alcohol limit that are arrested at radom by police, C = 12/100

Step-by-step explanation: a)  A + B + C = 5/100 + 15/100 + 12/100 = 32/100

b) 1 - ( A + B + C) = 1 - 32/100 = 68/100

c) A = 5/100

d) 1 - 5/100 = 95/100
