Answer:

  13

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps the most straightforward way to find the value of the given function is to first solve the equations for x and y. The results can be substituted into your expression to find the value you want.

__

<h3>solving the system</h3>

We notice the y-coefficients are opposites, so we can eliminate the y-variable by adding the equations.

  (2x -y) +(x +y) = (3) +(1)

  3x = 4 . . . . . . simplify

  x = 4/3 . . . . . divide by 3

The value of y can be found from the second equation:

  4/3 +y = 1 . . . . substitute for x

  y = -1/3 . . . . . . subtract 4/3

<h3>expression value</h3>

The value of 8x-7y is found by substituting the x- and y-values into this expression:

  8(4/3) -7(-1/3) = 32/3 +7/3 = 39/3 = 13

The value of 8x-7y is 13.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You can also work out what combination of the two equations will give 8x -7y. That turns out to be 5 times the first minus 2 times the second:

  5(2x -y) -2(x +y) = 5(3) -2(1)

  10x -5y -2x -2y = 15 -2

  8x -7y = 13

__

The coefficients 5 and -2 are found by solving the system of equations ...

  a(2x -y) +b(x +y) ≡ 8x -7y   ⇒   {2a +b = 8, -a +b = -7}

HEEEELP!!!!!!: An icicle is in the shape of an inverted cone with a diameter of 9 mm and a height of 120 mm. The icicle drips at
OleMash [197]

Find the volume of the icicle using the formula V = PI x r^2 x h/3

Volume = 3.14 x 4.5^2 x 120/3

Volume = 3.14 x 20.25 x 40

Volume = 2543.4 cubic mm.

Now divide the total volume by the drip rate:

2543.4 / 75 = 33.9 minutes.

The answer is D.

Find the following, giving your answers
stellarik [79]

Answer:

  a) 301.6 cm³

  b) 188.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume and lateral surface area of the cone can be found using the given dimensions with the given formulas. All that is needed is to substitute the appropriate values and do the arithmetic.

__

<h3>a) volume</h3>

The volume is given by the formula ...

  V = 1/3πr²h

The dimensions are given on the diagram: r = 6 cm, h = 8 cm. Using these values in the formula, we find the volume to be ...

  V = 1/3π(6 cm)²(8 cm) = 96π cm³ ≈ 301.6 cm³

The volume of the cone is about 301.6 cm³.

__

<h3>b) area</h3>

The lateral area of the cone is given by the formula ...

  A = πrl

The dimensions are given on the diagram: r = 6 cm, l = 10 cm (the slant height). Using these values in the formula, we find the area to be ...

  A = π(6 cm)(10 cm) = 60π cm² ≈ 188.5 cm²

The area of the curved surface is about 188.5 cm².

in a game involving a pair of fair dice a player rolls the dice until he gets a sum of 7 let z equal the number of rolls it take
Anarel [89]

Answer:

z = 36 rolls , probability for getting 7 = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

A die has 6 possible outcomes, which sums to 36 for two dice for every value on both dice.

The outcomes for rolling both dice for 36 times gives 6 possible outcomes summing to 7, that is, (1, 6), (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), (5, 2), and (6, 1).

There the probability of getting a sum dice of 7 is:

= 6 / 36 = 1/6
