Answer:
x = 1/4
y = -1/2
z = 9/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have a system of 3 equations with 3 variables:
4*x + 2*y + 1 = 1
2*x - y = 1
x + 3*y + z = 1
The first step to solve this, is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, let's isolate "y" in the second equation:
2*x - y = 1
2*x - 1 = y
Now that we have an expression equivalent to "y", we can replace this in the other two equations:
4*x + 2*(2*x - 1) + 1 = 1
x + 3*(2*x - 1) + z = 1
Now let's simplify these two equations:
8*x - 1 = 1
7*x - 3 + z = 1
Now, in the first equation we have only the variable x, so we can solve that equation to find the value of x:
8*x - 1 = 1
8*x = 1 + 1 = 2
x = 2/8 = 1/4
Now that we know the value of x, we can replace this in the other equation to find the value of z.
7*(1/4) -3 + z = 1
7/4 - 3 + z = 1
z = 1 + 3 - 7/4
z = 4 - 7/4
z = 16/4 - 7/4 = 9/4
z = 9/4
Now we can use the equation y = 2*x - 1 and the value of x to find the value of y:
y = 2*(1/4) - 1
y = 2/4 - 1
y = 1/2 - 1
y = -1/2
Then the solution is:
x = 1/4
y = -1/2
z = 9/4
The distance the ships traveled are like the legs of a triangle and the question wants to know the hypotenuse. To find the hypotenuse, use the pythagorean theorem. this is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, with a and b being the legs and c being the <span>hypotenuse.
</span>Plug in known values:
84^2 + 62^2 = c^2
Solve:
84^2 = 7056
62^2 = 3844
7056 + 3844 = c^2
7056 + 3844 = 10900
10900 = c^2
Now you just need to isolate c by finding the square root of both sides.
√10900 = 104.403
√c^2 = c
So c = 104.403, or just 104.40 when rounded to the nearest tenth.
And if c is 104.40, then that means the hypotenuse is 104.40.
And all of that basically means that the distance between the ships is 104.40 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:
Y=-5x-2
-2= y-intercept
-5x= slope
find y-intercept on a graph, make a dot.
then use slope from y-intercept dot, make another dot.
Draw line.
Is it a positive or Negative slope?
Hope that helps.
