M+m+z/3=3m
m+m+z=9m
2m+z=9m
z=7m
m+m+7m/3=3m
9m=9m
m=1
1+1+z/3=3
2+z=9
z=7
idk but i think that one person gets paid 7 dollars and the other ppl get paid 1 dollar----- this is probably veryyyyy wrong
The answer is no, because the first two equations are right but the third equation equals -16 instead of -15. So the answer is no (2,-2,4) is not the solution to all the system of equations.
Lol do your own work. Pay attention in class, it'll pay off ;)
Answer:
outlier
Step-by-step explanation:
it is way to far away to be any of those other options. that means it is an outlier.
We know that
The mixture in Tank A is 5/(5+10) = 1/3 pure alcohol.
The mixture in Tank B is 3/(3+12) = 1/5 pure alcohol.
We want to combine these to make a mixture that is 25% = 1/4 pure alcohol.
Let
x------------------> the volume in gallons of solution taken from Tank A.
y------------------>the volume in gallons of solution taken from Tank B
Then
the volume taken from Tank B will be y=(8 -x)
remember that we are making a total of 8 gallons of solutions.
The alcohol content of the mixture is(1/3)x +(1/5)(8 -x) = (1/4)*85x + 3(8 -x) = 30 ----------> 5x+24-3x=30----------> 5x-3x=30-24
2x = 6 ----------------> x=3
y=8-x--------> y=8-3-----> y=5
the answer is
3 gallons should be taken from Tank A;
5 gallons should be taken from Tank B
