Answer:

d = 5e

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of wagons = 5

Number of miles per wagon = e

Total number of mules = d

Hence, relationship between total mules d needed will be ;

Total mules = number of wagons * Numbe rof mules per wagon

d = 5e

Answer:

A. 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Count the first top half and you get 40 and you will know the bottom half is 40

which altogether is 80 or you can count the blocks one by one or count the blocks on the right side count the top blocks by five across.

V= l*w*h

V= 5*4*4

V= 80

Hope this Helps! :)

Have a nice day! :)

Solving a Two-Step Matrix Equation<br> Solve the equation:

Cloud [144]

Answer:

$\boxed {x_{1} = 3}$

$\boxed {x_{2} = -4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following equation:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&2\\5&5\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x_{1}\\x_{2}\\\end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1\\2\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\-3\\\end{array}\right]$

-In order to solve a pair of equations by using substitution, you first need to solve one of the equations for one of variables and then you would substitute the result for that variable in the other equation:

-First equation:

$3x_{1} + 2x_{2} + 1 = 2$

-Second equation:

$5x_{1} + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$

-Choose one of the two following equations, which I choose the first one, then you solve for $x_{1}$ by isolating

$3x_{1} + 2x_{2} + 1 = 2$

-Subtract $1$ to both sides:

$3x_{1} + 2x_{2} + 1 - 1 = 2 - 1$

$3x_{1} + 2x_{2} = 1$

-Subtract $2x_{2}$ to both sides:

$3x_{1} + 2x_{2} - 2x_{2} = -2x_{2} + 1$

$3x_{1} = -2x_{2} + 1$

-Divide both sides by $3$ :

$3x_{1} = -2x_{2} + 1$

$x_{1} = \frac{1}{3} (-2x_{2} + 1)$

-Multiply $-2x_{2} + 1$ by $\frac{1}{3}$ :

$x_{1} = \frac{1}{3} (-2x_{2} + 1)$

$x_{1} = -\frac{2}{3}x_{2} + \frac{1}{3}$

-Substitute $-\frac{2x_{2} + 1}{3}$ for $x_{1}$ in the second equation, which is $5x_{1} + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$ :

$5x_{1} + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$

$5(-\frac{2}{3}x_{2} + \frac{1}{3}) + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$

Multiply $-\frac{2x_{2} + 1}{3}$ by $5$ :

$5(-\frac{2}{3}x_{2} + \frac{1}{3}) + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$

$-\frac{10}{3}x_{2} + \frac{5}{3} + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$

-Combine like terms:

$-\frac{10}{3}x_{2} + \frac{5}{3} + 5x_{2} + 2 = -3$

$\frac{5}{3}x_{2} + \frac{11}{3} = -3$

-Subtract $\frac{11}{3}$ to both sides:

$\frac{5}{3}x_{2} + \frac{11}{3} - \frac{11}{3} = -3 - \frac{11}{3}$

$\frac{5}{3}x_{2} = -\frac{20}{3}$

-Multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{3}$ :

$\frac{\frac{5}{3}x_{2}}{\frac{5}{3}} = \frac{-\frac{20}{3}}{\frac{5}{3}}$

$\boxed {x_{2} = -4}$

-After you have the value of $x_2$ , substitute for $x_{2}$ onto this equation, which is $x_{1} = -\frac{2}{3}x_{2} + \frac{1}{3}$ :

$x_{1} = -\frac{2}{3}x_{2} + \frac{1}{3}$

$x_{1} = -\frac{2}{3}(-4) + \frac{1}{3}$

-Multiply $-\frac{2}{3}$ and $-4$ :

$x_{1} = -\frac{2}{3}(-4) + \frac{1}{3}$

$x_{1} = \frac{8 + 1}{3}$

-Since both $\frac{1}{3}$ and $\frac{8}{3}$ have the same denominator, then add the numerators together. Also, after you have added both numerators together, reduce the fraction to the lowest term:

$x_{1} = \frac{8 + 1}{3}$

$x_{1} = \frac{9}{3}$

$\boxed {x_{1} = 3}$
