Answer:

(1, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 3y = - 5 → (1)

5x - 2y = 9 → (2)

multiplying (1) by - 5 and adding to (2) will eliminate x

- 5x - 15y = 25 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate x

0 - 17y = 34

- 17y = - 34 ( divide both sides by - 17 )

y = - 2

substitute y = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

substituting into (1)

x + 3(- 2) = - 5

x - 6 = - 5 ( add 6 to both sides )

x = 1

solution is (1, - 2 )

What is the exact circumference of the circle?

fredd [130]

Data:

Formula: diameter = 2*radius

Formula: (Circle length)
 $C = 2* \pi *r$

Solving: Using the data
diameter = 2*radius
20 = 2*r
2r = 20
$r = \frac{20}{2}$
$\boxed{r = 10\:ft}$

Now, replace in the circumference length formula
 $C = 2 \pi *r$
$C = 2 \pi *10$
$\boxed{\boxed{C = 20 \pi \:ft}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:
The exact circumference of the circle is $20 \pi \:ft$
