Answer:

(-8, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Set up the equations.

y = 1/2x + 6

y = -3/4x - 4

2. Set the equations to equal each other.

1/2x + 6 = -3/4x - 4

3. Move the variables to one side and the numbers to the opposite side.

6 + 4 = -3/4x - 1/2x

10 = -3/4x - 2/4x

10 = -5/4x

4. Divide 10 by -5/4.

10/ -5/4 = 10 * -4/5 (when dividing fractions, flip the fraction over)

10 * -4/5 = -40/5 = -8

<em>x = -8</em>

5. Plug in the x-value into one of the equations.

y = 1/2x + 6

y = 1/2(-8) + 6

y = -4 + 6

<em>y = 2</em>

OR

y = -3/4x - 4

y = -3/4(-8) - 4

y = 6 - 4

<em>y = 2</em>

A technology company produces two types of calculators.
lubasha [3.4K]

10 ≤ x ≤ 30, x < 2y, x < 40.

Solution:

Given x is the number of graphing calculators produced daily and

y is the number of scientific calculators produced daily.

Step 1: A company produce atleast 10 and not more than 30 graphing calculators per day.

⇒ 10 ≤ x < 30

Step 2: Each day, the number of graphing calculators cannot exceed twice the number of scientific calculators produced.

⇒ x < 2y

Step 3: The number of scientific calculators cannot exceed 40 per day.

⇒ x < 40

Hence, the constraints are 10 ≤ x ≤ 30, x < 2y, x < 40.

There are two right circular cylinders. The radius of the first cylinder is 4 centimeters, and its height is 5 centimeters. The
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

D. 9:1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is πr² · h (pi · radius² · height) (use 3.14 for pi).

The two right circular cylinders have the same height. The larger cylinder has a radius that is three times the size of the smaller radius.

4 · 3 = 12

However, in the equation for volume, the radius is squared. Because of this, the larger cylinder is 9 times the size of the smaller cylinder because 3² = 9.

You can check your work by finding the volume of the two cylinders using the volume formula πr² · h:

3.14 · 4² · 5 = 251.2

3.14 · 12² · 5 = 2,260.8

The cylinder with a radius of 12 cm is 9 times the size of the cylinder with a radius of 4 cm.

2.260.8 ÷ 9 = 251.2
