To solve this problem, I am going to use the substitution method. To do this, we use our first equation given (s=4r-1) and substitute this given value for s (4r-1) and substitute it into the second equation so that we have an equation with only one variable. This is modeled below:
s = 4r - 1
6r - 5s = -23
6r - 5(4r-1) = -23
Now, we can solve this equation as we would any other equation, using the order of operations outlined by PEMDAS. To begin, we will distribute the factor of -5 through the parentheses on the left side of the equation.
6r - 20r + 5 = -23
Next, we should combine like terms on the left side of the equation:
-14r + 5 = -23
Next, we should subtract 5 from both sides of the equation to get the variable term alone on the the left side of the equation. We get:
-14r = -28
Finally, we should divide both sides by -14 to get the variable r alone on the left side of the equation.
r = 2
Now that we know that value for the variable r, we can substitute this value into one of our original equations (either one will work, but I am choosing to use the first one):
s = 4r - 1
s = 4(2) - 1
Now, we can find the value for s by using multiplication and then subtraction to simplify the right side of the equation.
s = 8-1
s = 7
Therefore, your answer is s = 7 and r = 2.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
about 48.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
20 women's shoes are athletic.
35 women's shoes are formal.
52 women's shoes are casual.
The total number of women's shoes is 107. So the probability that a randomly selected one is casual is:
P = 52/107
P ≈ 48.6%
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
5/50=x/100
5×100=500
500/50=10
x=10

Answer:
7238.23ft Cubed
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the answer you plug the value of the radius in to the equation >
V = 4/3πr³
Area of a triangle=bh/2
27= x(x-3)/2
27= (x^2-3x)/2
54= x^2-3x
x^2-3x-54=0
(x-9)(x+6)=0
x=9, x=-6.
In this case, x must equal 9 since the base cannot be a negative number.
Final answer: Height=6 m
