We can call the two numbers x and y. Then, x + y = 33, and 2x - y = 18. We can use substitution to solve this problem:

y = 33 - x 

SO

2x - 33 + x = 18

3x = 51

<u>x = 17</u>

Now, we know x. We can use this to find y:

x + y = 33

17 + y = 33

<u>y = 16

</u>So, the numbers are 16 and 17. <u>

Y+x=33
2x-y=18
3x=51
x=17
y=33-x
y=16

The volume of a cylinder is 980pi in ^3 The height of the cylinder is 20 in. What is the radius of the cylinder?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

The radius of the cylinder is 7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the radius of a cylinder we have to use the following formula:

v = volume  = 980π in³

h = height = 20in

π = pi

r = radius

v = (π * r²) * h

we replace with the known values

980π in³  = (π * (r)²) * 20in

980π in³ / 20in = π * (r)²

49 in² = (r)²

√(49 in²) = r

7 in = r

The radius of the cylinder is 7 in

What are the steps to covert the answer into a mixed fraction of this problem 45 x 3/8= 135/8
riadik2000 [5.3K]
1. Divide 135 by 8 which is equal to 16
2. Multiply 16 ×8 = 128
3. Subtract 135 - 128 =7

The seven represent the numerator so it would be 7/8.

The finally answer would be

16 \ \frac{7}{8}
