Since we must save 50 meals for volunteers, the real amount we are giving away is 700 meals in 12 hours.
700/12 = 58.3333...
10*58.333.. = 583.333....
Since we can't serve 1/3 of a person, we take 583. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin with substuting the x variable with -2, we do this because the question has listed the value of x already.
Using the value of x, -2 we determine g(x).
g(x) = -2^2 + 2
Above is what the equation would look as, after you input the value of -2.
Using pemdas, (parantheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction) solve the equation.
-2^2 = 4
Think of it as -2 * -2, which is why -2^2 is 4.
Add 4 +2.
4 + 2 = 6.
Therefore, the value of g(x) = 6
I'd suggest using "elimination by addition and subtraction" here, altho' there are other approaches (such as matrices, substitution, etc.).
Note that if you add the 3rd equation to the second, the x terms cancel out, and you are left with the system
- y + 3z = -2
y + z = -2
-----------------
4z = -4, so z = -1.
Next, multiply the 3rd equation by 2: You'll get -2x + 2y + 2z = -2.
Add this result to the first equation. The 2x terms will cancel, leaving you with the system
2y + 2z = -2
y + z = 4
This would be a good time to subst. -1 for z. We then get:
-2y - 2 = -2. Then y must be 0. y = 0.
Now subst. -1 for z and 0 for y in any of the original equations.
For example, x - (-1) + 3(0) = -2, so x + 1 = -2, or x = -3.
Then a tentative solution is (-3, -1, 0).
It's very important that you ensure that this satisfies all 3 of the originale quations.
