X = 3y - 6

1 answer:

4 0

X = 3y - 6....so sub 3y - 6 in for x in the other equation

2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
6y - 12 - 4y = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
y = 20/2
y = 10

x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x = 24

solution is (24,10)

What is the approximate volume of a cone with a height of 12 in. and radius of 9 in.?

Arisa [49]

Volume of the cone = 1/3π r^2 h
So, we are given that r = 9 and h = 12
plugging in all the known values
1/3 * (3.14) * 9 * 9 * 12
= 1017.36 cm³
or
≈1017.4 cm³

The number of trees in a rainforest decreases each month by 0.5%. The forest currently has 2.5 billion trees. Which expression r

Blababa [14]

Answer:

$y=2.5*10^9(0.005^{12 0}) \\\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question is in the form of an exponential decay. The equation for an exponential decay is given by:

$y=ab^x$

where y and x are variables, b < 1, a is the initial value of y (that is the value of y when x = 0).

Let y represent the number of trees left and x represent the number of months. Given that there is currently 2.5 billion trees, therefore a = 2.5 * 10⁹, b = 0.5% = 0.005. The equations becomes:

$y=2.5*10^9(0.005^x)\\\\After\ ten\ years(x=10*12\ months=120\ months):\\\\y=2.5*10^9(0.005^{12 0}) \\\\$

Pls, can someone answer this, Explain, using words and numbers, how to subtract 7x - ( 6x + 13). Remember to include the solutio

Hitman42 [59]

So first you distribute the negative to the 6x and 13 which will flip the sign of both of them to -6x and -13 so take away the parentheses and the equation is now 7x-6x-13. You combine the x’s and you get 1x-13 or x-13
