Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{2}{3}x-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x-3y=12\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\2x-2x-3y=12-2x\\\\-3y=12-2x\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-3)}\\\\\dfrac{-3y}{-3}=\dfrac{12}{-3}+\dfrac{-2x}{-3}\\\\y=-4+\dfrac{2}{3}x$

Formula for the surface area of a cylinder, SA = 2ar2 + 2arh. Solve for h.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$h=\frac{SA-2\pi r^2}{2\pi r}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

$SA=2\pi r^2+2\pi rh$

And we want to solve for the height h.

First, subtract $2\pi r^2$ from both sides. This yields:

$2\pi rh=SA-2\pi r^2$

Now, divide both sides by $2\pi r$ . This yields:

$h=\frac{SA-2\pi r^2}{2\pi r}$

And we're done!

The row-echelon form of the augmented matrix of a system of equations is given. Find the solution of the system. FYI it’s not b

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the last row in the matrix z = 1.

From the second row:

y + 5z = -4

y = -4 -5(1) = -9.

From the first row:

x + -1 = -3

x = - 3 + 1

x = -2.
