The system is:

i)    <span>2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    </span><span>x + 3y + 2z = –7
</span>iii)   <span>–4x – 4y – 2z = 10 

the last equation can be simplified, by dividing by -2, 

thus we have:

</span>i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    x + 3y + 2z = –7
iii)   2x +2y +z = -5 


The procedure to solve the system is as follows:

first use any pairs of 2 equations (for example i and ii, i and iii) and equalize them by using one of the variables:

i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4   
iii)   2x +2y +z = -5 

2x can be written as 3y+2z+4 from the first equation, and -2y-z-5 from the third equation.

Equalize:  

3y+2z+4=-2y-z-5, group common terms:
5y+3z=-9   

similarly, using i and ii, eliminate x:

i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    x + 3y + 2z = –7

multiply the second equation by 2:


i)    2x – 3y – 2z = 4
ii)    2x + 6y + 4z = –14

thus 2x=3y+2z+4 from i and 2x=-6y-4z-14 from ii:

3y+2z+4=-6y-4z-14
9y+6z=-18

So we get 2 equations with variables y and z:

a)   5y+3z=-9 
b)   9y+6z=-18

now the aim of the method is clear: We eliminate one of the variables, creating a system of 2 linear equations with 2 variables, which we can solve by any of the standard methods.

Let's use elimination method, multiply the equation a by -2:

a)   -10y-6z=18 
b)   9y+6z=-18
------------------------    add the equations:

-10y+9y-6z+6z=18-18
-y=0
y=0,

thus :
9y+6z=-18 
0+6z=-18
z=-3

Finally to find x, use any of the equations i, ii or iii:

<span>2x – 3y – 2z = 4 
</span>
<span>2x – 3*0 – 2(-3) = 4

2x+6=4

2x=-2

x=-1

Solution: (x, y, z) = (-1, 0, -3 ) 


Remark: it is always a good attitude to check the answer, because often calculations mistakes can be made:

check by substituting x=-1, y=0, z=-3 in each of the 3 equations and see that for these numbers the equalities hold.</span>

A stone which is dropped into a dry well hits the bottom in 2.2s how deep is the well. take g=10m/s​
Papessa [141]

Answer:

23.7m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

       Time taken = 2.2s

     Acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s

Unknown:

Depth of the well  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we simply apply one of the motion equations;

        S = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt²

    where S = depth of the well

                u = initial velocity

                t = time taken

               g = acceleration due to gravity

 Input the parameters and solve for S;

   Note initial velocity = 0;

     S = \frac{1}{2} x 9.8 x 2.2²

    S = 23.7m

In the last six months, Sonia's family used 529, 499, 651, 652, 1,163, and 310 minutes on their cell phone plan. To save money,
Tresset [83]

Answer:

They went over their goal for the last six months by 34 minutes per month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of a data-set:

The mean of a data-set is the sum of all values in the data-set divided by the size of the data-set.

529, 499, 651, 652, 1,163, and 310 minutes on their cell phone plan.

The mean is:

M = \frac{529+499+651+652+1163+310}{6} = 634

By how many minutes did they go over their goal in the last six months?

The mean was of 634 minutes, and they wanted to keep it below 600. So

634 - 600 = 34

They went over their goal for the last six months by 34 minutes per month.
