<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The missing step is the step shown in the last option:

D. 324=0.042x+16

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find which is the missing step, we need to remember that to cancel a square root, we need to elevate it, so:

Starting from the last step before the missing step, we have:

-18=-\sqrt{0.042x+16}

In order to calculate the value of the variable (x) we need to square both sides of the equation, since squaring a root will cancel the root.

We must remember the following properties:

\sqrt{a^{m} }=a^{\frac{m}{2}}\\\\(a^{b})^{c}=a^{b*c}

Now, finding the missing step, we need to find what to do in order to get the expression of the following step.

So, squaring both sides of the equation in order to cancel the square root and isolate the variable, we have:

-18=-\sqrt{0.042x+16}\\\\(-18)^{2} =(-\sqrt{0.042x+16})^{2} \\324=0.042x+16\\324-16=0.042x\\\\x=\frac{304}{0.042}=7333

Hence, we found the the missing step is:

D. 324=0.042x+16

Have a nice day!

The prices of commodities X,Y,Z are respectively x, y, z, rupees per unit. Mr. A purchases 4 units of Z and sells 3 units of X a
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

(x,y,z)=(1477, 1464, 1437)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the selling of the units positive earning and the purchasing of the units negative earning.

<h3>Case-1:</h3>
  • Mr. A purchases 4 units of Z and sells 3 units of X and 5 units of Y
  • Mr.A earns Rs6000

So, the equation would be

3x  +  5y - 4z = 6000

<h3>Case-2:</h3>
  • Mr. B purchases 3 units of Y and sells 2 units of X and 1 units of Z
  • Mr B neither lose nor gain meaning he has made 0₹

hence,

2x   - 3y  +  z = 0

<h3>Case-3:</h3>
  • Mr. C purchases 1 units of X and sells 4 units of Y and 6 units of Z
  • Mr.C earns 13000₹

therefore,

- x    + 4y  +  6z = 13000

Thus our system of equations is

\begin{cases}3x  +  5y - 4z = 6000\\2x   - 3y  +  z = 0\\ - x    + 4y  +  6z = 13000\end{cases}

<u>Solving </u><u>the </u><u>system </u><u>of </u><u>equations</u><u>:</u>

we will consider elimination method to solve the system of equations. To do so ,separate the equation in two parts which yields:

\begin{cases}3x  +  5y - 4z = 6000\\2x   - 3y  +  z = 0\end{cases}\\\begin{cases}2x   - 3y  +  z = 0\\ - x    + 4y  +  6z = 13000\end{cases}

Now solve the equation accordingly:

\implies\begin{cases}11x-7y=6000\\-13x+22y=13000\end{cases}

Solving the equation for x and y yields:

\implies\begin{cases}x= \dfrac{223000}{151}\\\\y= \dfrac{221000}{151}\end{cases}

plug in the value of x and y into 2x - 3y + z = 0 and simplify to get z. hence,

\implies z= \dfrac{217000}{151}

Therefore,the prices of commodities X,Y,Z are respectively approximately 1477, 1464, 1437
