The solution of the system is:

x = 62/7

y = 30/7

<h3>How to solve the system of equations?</h3>

Here we have the system:

4x + 5y = -14

-5x - 8y = 10

To solve it by combining the equations, we need to try to remove one of the variables.

If we take the sum of 5 times the first equation and 4 times the second equation we get:

5*(4x + 5y) + 4*(-5x - 8y) = 5*(-14) + 4*10

If we simplify that we get:

20x  + 25y - 20x - 32y = -30

-7y = -30

Now we can solve that for y:

y = -30/-7 = 30/7

Now to get the value of x, we can replace the value of y in any of the given equations:

Using the first one:

4x + 5y = -14

x = (-14 - 5y)/4

x = (-14 - 5*30/7)/4 = (-98/7 - 150/7)/4 = 248/28 = 124/14 = 62/7

The solution of the system is:

x = 62/7

y = 30/7

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:226.08 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

π=3.14

Radius(r)=6feet

Height(h)=2feet

volume=π x r^2 x h

Volume=3.14 x 6^2 x 2

Volume=3.14 x 6 x 6 x 2

Volume=226.08
