Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- x + y + z = -3 --> (1)
- 3y - z = 4 --> (2)
- 2x - y - 2z = -5 --> (3)
<u>Add up (1) and (2)</u>
- x + 3y + y + z - z = -3 + 4 ⇒ x + 4y = 1 --> (4)
<u>Double (2) and subtract from (3)</u>
- 2x - y - 2z - 2(3y - z) = -5 - 2(4) ⇒ 2x - y - 2z - 6y + 2z = -5 - 8
- 2x - 7y = -13 --> (5)
<u>Double (4) and subtract (5)</u>
- 2(x + 4y) - 2x + 7y = 2 + 13 ⇒ 2x + 8y - 2x + 7y = 15 ⇒ 15y = 15 ⇒ y = 1
<u>Finding x</u>
- x + 4(1) = 1 ⇒ x = 1 - 4 ⇒ x = -3
<u>Finding z</u>
<u>So the answer is: </u>
Each mile took 7.5 minutes. So we did this by dividing 30 by 4. Hope this helped you :)
We rewrite equations to make them simple or to solve them. Solving algebraic equations often means isolating the variable or rewriting the equation so that one expression is only the variable with a coefficient of 1
