Answer:

w+2,312=2,490

w= 178 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

W—-^ the amount of weight Bernard lost in pounds

We know that

The amount of weight Bernard lost plus the weight of this week must be equal to the weight of the last week

So…

The linear equation that represents this situation is

w=2,312=2,490

solve for w

Subtract 2,490 - 2,312 = 178lbs

If you found this helpful please let me know! I’m always striving to improve my answers! Have a wonderful day!

What is the reciprocal of<br> of 1/5?
irga5000 [103]

The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5.

Reciprocals are numbers than when multiplied equal a product of 1.  In this question, 1/5 * 5 = 1.  An easy trick for finding reciprocals is flipping a fraction.

Hope this helps!!

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation mostly depends on what you're learning right now. The first way would be to convert this matrix to a system of equations like this.

g + t + k = 90

g + 2t - k = 55

-g - t + 3k = 30

Then you solve using normal methods of substitution or elimination. It seems to me that elimination is the quickest method.

g + t + k = 90

-g - t + 3k = 30

____________

0 + 0 + 4k = 120

4k = 120

k = 30

No you can plug this into the first two equations

g + t + (30) = 90

g + t = 60

and

g + 2t - (30) = 55

g + 2t = 85

now use elimination again by multiplying the first equation by -1

g + 2t = 85

-g - t = -60

_________

0 + t = 25

t = 25

Now plug those both back into one of the equations. I'll just do the first one.

g + (25) + (30) = 90

g = 35

Therefore, we know that Ted spent the least amount of time on the computer.

The second method is using matrix reduction and getting the matrix in the row echelon form, therefore solving using the gauss jordan method. If you would like me to go through this instead, please leave a comment.
