There are 82 boats in the navy. 48 of them are battleships and the rest are destroyers. What is the ratio of the number of destroyers to the number of battleships?​

Let

x -----> the number of destroyers

y ----> the number of battleships

the ratio is

x/y

we have

y=48

x=82-48=34

therefore

ratio=34/48

simplify

34/48=17/24

answer is 17/24 or 17:24

Find the volume of the pyramid, given its slant height. Round them to the nearest tenth please.
Korolek [52]

Answer:

  4.  1.3 cm³

  5.  621.2 mm³

  6.  116.5 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The height to the peak of the pyramid is one side of the right triangle that has its hypotenuse equal to the slant height, and one leg equal to half the base side length. The Pythagorean theorem is used to find the height from the slant height (s) and the base length (b):

  h = √(s² -(b/2)²)

The volume is found from the formula ...

  V = (1/3)b²h

where b is the base length and h is the height found using the previous formula.

The tedious arithmetic is nicely done using a spreadsheet. Results are attached.

The system of equations above is graphed below. Find the solution to the system.
Oksana_A [137]

Option D: x=3,y=-2 is the solution to the system of equations.

Explanation:

Given that the equations are 4x+y=10 and 2x+y=4

We need to determine the solution of the system of equations.

The solution can be determined by solving the two equations.

Let us solve the system of equations using substitution method.

Consider the equation 4x+y=10 , the value of y is given by

y=10-4x

Substituting the value of y=10-4x in the equation 2x+y=4 , we get,

2x+(10-4x)=4

Simplifying, we get,

2x+10-4x=4

     -2x+10=4

             -2x=-6

                 x=3

Substituting the value of x=3 in 4x+y=10 , we get,

4(3)+y=10

  12+y=10

         y=-2

Thus, the solution to the system of equations is x=3,y=-2

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

4x+3y=12
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

B, C, F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}4x+3y=12\\ \\2x+3y=-6\end{array}\right.

Subtract the second equation from the first equation:

(4x+3y)-(2x+3y)=12-(-6)\\ \\4x+3y-2x-3y=12+6\\ \\2x=18\\ \\x=9

Option B "The x coordinate of the solution is 9" is ture

Substitute it into the first equation:

4\cdot 9+3y=12\\ \\36+3y=12\\ \\3y=12-36\\ \\3y=-24\\ \\y=-8

Option F "The y coordinate of the solution is -8" is true.

Point (9,-8) is in the IV quadrant, so option C is true.
