Which of the following (x,y) pairs is the solution for the system of equations x+2y=4 and -2x+y=7

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

(-2 ,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Rewrite first equation

x = 4 - 2y

-2x + y = 7

Step 2: Substitution

-2(4 - 2y) + y = 7

Step 3: Solve y

-8 + 4y + y = 7

-8 + 5y = 7

5y = 15

y = 3

Step 3: Plug in y to find x

x + 2(3) = 4

x + 6 = 4

x = -2

The volume of a cone with a height of 4 cm is 12π cubic cm. What is the radius of the base?

blondinia [14]

Answer:

r = 6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for r:

$v = \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2}$

$12\pi = \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2} \\ 12\pi = \frac{\pi {r}^{2} }{3} \\ 3 \times 12\pi = \pi {r}^{2} \\ 36\pi = \pi {r}^{2} \\ \frac{36\pi}{\pi} = \frac{\pi {r}^{2} }{\pi} \\ \sqrt{ {r}^{2} } = \sqrt{36} \\ r = 6$
