Answer
(a)

(b)

Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that when you want to solve a problem like this, you express the equation as following

So, if you know the inverse of
then

For this case

Now for this case the inverse of A would be

Then when you multiply with the vector solution

So from that information you can conclude that the solution to the system of equations is x = 500/7 y = 2400/7 and z = 2700/7
Answer:
(-4,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us check the choices.
y > |x| - 5
- 1 > |4| - 5 = -1 NO (4,-1);
-4 > |-1| - 5 = -4 NO not(-1,-4)
1 > |-4| - 5 = -1 TRUE, yes (-4,1)
7 = 7
20 = 2 x 2 x 5
Least common multiple is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 = 140
Other multiples are multiples of 140 = 280, 420, 560, 700
Answer:
since 20% is 100
then 80% is 400
Therefore 500 in total to begin with.
Our Order of Operations looks like this:
Parenthesis
Exponent
Multiplication/Division
Addition/Subtraction
Multiplication and division are on the same "level".
When we see them in the problem, we execute the operations from LEFT TO RIGHT. So Shawna should have applied the division before multiplying the 2 and 3. (Because the division is the leftmost operation in the problem).
