NEED DESPARATE HELP, WILL FAN AND MEDAL BEST ANSWER! Question 3.3. Which equation is equivalent to x + 3y - z = 3? (Points : 1) 3x + 6y - 3z = 6 4x + 12y - 4z = 12 2x + 4y - 2z = 8 2x + 3y - 4z = 12
Take the given equation and compare it with each option one by one
@Directrix seems like the first or third one? I think option 3....
x + 3y - z = 3 3x + 6y - 3z = 6 Is there a number you can multiply each of the terms of the first equation by to get the second equation?
^^ is the first option so answer the question.
What times x = 3x ?
3 @Directrix
Does 3 * 3y = 6y ?
no.. so its not option 1 @Directrix
oh wait its totally option 2 isnt it!! @Directrix
Correct. Move to option 2 x + 3y - z = 3 4x + 12y - 4z = 12 What times x = 4x?
cause times 4, everything matches!
Correct.
wow thats so easy now that i think about it haha, thanks!
So, they are equivalent equations.
thanks!!:)
You are welcome.
