Answer:
4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5p-3.45=-1.2
add 3.45 to -1.2 which would leave the equation to look like
0.5p=2.25
then divide 0.5 to both sides cancelling 0.5 leaving the answer to be
p=4.5
A pound is larger then a ounce
Can you take the picture closer?
First, using elimination method for eq. 1 and 2 to eliminate one of the variables.
2x - y + 3z = 8
-2x + 3y - 2z = 10
------------------------------
2y + z = 18
z = 18 - 2y
Now eq. 1 and 3, but multiple eq.1 with 2.
2x + 4y - 2z = 8
-2x + 3y - 2z = 10
----------------------------
7y - 4z = 18
Now you have two new equations 7y -4z = 18 and z = 18 - 2y. Solve for y and z, using substitute method.
7y - 4z = 18
7y - 4(18 - 2y) = 18
7y - 72 + 8y = 18
15y = 18+72
y = 90/15
y = 6
Find z using one of the two new equations.
z = 18 - 2y
z = 18 - 2(6)
z = 18 - 12
z = 6
Now you got y and z, find x using any one of the main three equations.
x + 2y - z = 4
X + 2(6) - 6 = 4
x + 12 - 6 = 4
x = 4 - 6
x = -2
Solutions:
x = -2
y = 6
z = 6
8x-10=3x+90. 8x-3x=90-10. 5x=80. x=16. So angle B is 3*16+90=138° :)
