Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
4 downgrades to 3 by 1
that means 6 will downgrade to 5 by 1
hope this helped
Answers:
So the solution is (x,y) = (4, -1)
=============================================================
Work Shown:
6x + 7y = 17
6x + 7( y ) = 17
6x + 7( -3x+11 ) = 17 ... replace every copy of y with -3x+11
6x - 21x + 77 = 17
-15x = 17-77
-15x = -60
x = -60/(-15)
x = 4
We'll use this x value to find y
y = -3x+11
y = -3(4)+11 ... replace x with 4
y = -12+11
y = -1
We have x = 4 and y = -1 pair up together to give us the solution (x,y) = (4, -1)
------------------------
To check the solution, we plug x = 4 and y = -1 into each equation
Plugging the values into the first equation leads to...
y = -3x+11
-1 = -3(4)+11
-1 = -1
This is effectively already done in the last part of the previous section. But it doesn't hurt to verify like this regardless.
We'll need to verify the second equation as well.
6x + 7y = 17
6(4) + 7(-1) = 17
24 - 7 = 17
17 = 17
We get a true equation, so the solution is confirmed with both equations. Overall, the solution to the system of equations is confirmed. This system is independent and consistent.
Volume of sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3
Volume of large sphere:
4/3 x 3.14 x 14^3 = 11488.21 cubic cm
Volume of smaller sphere:
4/3 x 3.14 x 2^3 = 33.49 cubic cm
Number of small spheres = volume of large sphere/ volume of small sphere
11488.21 / 33.49 = 343.03
Round to 343 small spheres
