No, the system is inconsistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the last column is a pivot column, then that row gives an equation that looks something like 0x+0y+0z=1 , meaning , 0=1. Clearly, this is false.

So, the system of linear equations is inconsistent.

To bill customers for water usage, one city converts the number of gallons used into units. This relationship is represented by
Anastaziya [24]

We are given equation g = 748u, where g is the total number of gallons of water used and u is the number of units.

We can see that the number of units of water being used by customers.

The number of units of water doesn't depend on the total number of gallons of water used.  

Therefore, the number of units u is an independent variable.

The value of the total number of gallons is totally depends on the number of units used.

Therefore,  the total number of gallons of water used g is a dependent variable.

So, we can conclude following statements:

1) g is the dependent variable.

2) u is the independent variable.

Polygons ABCD and EFGH are similar. Find the length of EH?
3241004551 [841]

Most likely, polygon <span>ABCD</span> has sides of known lengths.
It is also likely that one of the sides of polygon <span>EFGH</span> (not <span>EH</span>) is also known. For instance, its side <span>EF</span>.

If the above is true, we can find the scaling factor as a ratio between lengths of corresponding sides:
<span>r=<span><span>EF</span><span>AB</span></span></span>

Since this ratio is constant for any two corresponding lengths,
<span>r=<span><span>EH</span><span>AD</span></span></span>

From the last two equations we can derive:
<span>EH=AD⋅<span><span>EF</span><span>AB</span></span></span>
