You'd find this problem easier to understand and do if you'd please list the defining equations vertically and line up variables:

1. x - 1y + 2 z = -7

2. y + 1z = 1

3. x - 2 y - 3 z = 0 Now eliminate the line numbers:

x - 1y + 2 z = -7

1y + 1 z = 1

x - 2 y - 3 z = 0

Let's use the elimination method to eliminate variable z: Seeing that z = 1 - y, we transform the first equation into 1x - 1y + 2(1-y) = -7

and the third into x - 2y - 3(1-y) = 0.

Simplifying 1x - 1y + 2(1-y) = -7

and x - 2y - 3(1-y) = 0,

we get

1x - 2y - 3 + 3y) = 0 and 1x - 1y + 2 - 2y = -7

which in turn simplify to

1x + y = 3 and 1x - 3y = -9

Having eliminated the variable z, we now focus on eliminating x. Mult. the 1st equation by -1, obtaining -1x - 1y = -3. Add this result to 1x - 3y = -9:

0 - 4y = -12, which tells us that y = 3. Subbing 3 for y in 1x + 1y = 3 tells us that x = 0.

All we have left to determine is the vaue of z.

Borrowing Equation 3, from above, we get x - 2 y - 3 z = 0, and into this equation we substitute x = 0 and y = 3: 0 -2(3) - 3z = 0.

Thus, -3z = 6, and z = -2.

The solution set is (0, 3, -2). You should check this by substitution.

nlexa [21]

Answer:

El chocolate cuesta 8.45

2.65 x 2 = 5.3

20 - 6.25 = 13.75

13.75 - 5.3 = 8.45

1A) Quad ABCD is inscribed in the circle. Find x. *
Ratling [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 9° + 3x + 1° =180° (opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary)

5x + 10° = 180°

5x = 180° - 10°

5x = 170°

x = 34°

Now

Angle A

= 2 * 34° + 9°

= 77°

Hope it will help :)❤
