3x - y + z = 5 . . . (1)
x + 3y + 3z = -6 . . . (2)
x + 4y - 2z = 12 . . . (3)
From (2), x = -6 - 3y - 3z . . . (4)
Substituting for x in (1) and (3) gives
3(-6 - 3y - 3z) - y + z = 5 => -18 - 9y - 9z - y + z = 5 => -10y - 8z = 23 . . (5)
-6 - 3y - 3z + 4y - 2z = 12 => y - 5z = 18 . . . (6)
(6) x 10 => 10y - 50z = 180 . . . (7)
(5) + (7) => -58z = 203
z = 203/-58 = -3.5
From (6), y - 5(-3.5) = 18 => y = 18 - 17.5 = 0.5
From (4), x = -6 - 3(0.5) - 3(-3.5) = -6 - 1.5 + 10.5 = 3
x = 3, y = 0.5, z = -3.5
Answer:
x is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the 2/5 by 8/8 and you should get 16/40
Hope this helped!
It will take 13 weeks to save the money to buy the equipment because if you subtract 20 you get 55.25 then divide by 4.25 you get 13 <span />
X =10.
First distribute the 2(2x-14) and get 4x-28.
x+2-4x-28. Subtract x from each side to get 2=3x-28.
Add 28 to both sides to equal 30=3x. Divide each side by 3 to get your final Answer, x=10.
