Hi there!
We can start off by taking out some key information from this problem.
- 6 flowers in the vase.
- 3 are roses. (3/6)
- 2 are peonies. (2/6)
- 1 is a Lily. (1/6)
By converting all of the flowers to have a common denominator we can clearly see that 1/6 of the flowers are lilies.
Answer:
x = 1 or x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x over the integers:
8 abs(x + 2) - 6 = 5 abs(x + 2) + 3
Subtract 5 abs(x + 2) - 6 from both sides:
3 abs(x + 2) = 9
Divide both sides by 3:
abs(x + 2) = 3
Split the equation into two possible cases:
x + 2 = 3 or x + 2 = -3
Subtract 2 from both sides:
x = 1 or x + 2 = -3
Subtract 2 from both sides:
Answer: x = 1 or x = -5
The given system of equations in augmented matrix form is
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc|c}3&2&-4&2&-23\\-6&1&2&4&-12\\1&-3&-3&5&-20\\-2&5&6&0&12\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7Cc%7D3%262%26-4%262%26-23%5C%5C-6%261%262%264%26-12%5C%5C1%26-3%26-3%265%26-20%5C%5C-2%265%266%260%2612%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
If you need to solve this, first get the matrix in RREF:
- Add 2(row 1) to row 2, row 1 to -3(row 3), and 2(row 1) to 3(row 4):
![\left[\begin{array}{cccc|c}3&2&-4&2&-23\\0&5&-6&8&-58\\0&11&5&-13&37\\0&19&10&4&-10\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcccc%7Cc%7D3%262%26-4%262%26-23%5C%5C0%265%26-6%268%26-58%5C%5C0%2611%265%26-13%2637%5C%5C0%2619%2610%264%26-10%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
- Add 11(row 2) to -5(row 3), and 19(row 1) to -5(row 4):
