Answer:

{-12,12}

Step-by-step explanation:

-|-x| = -12 multiply both sides by -1

|-x| = 12 apply rule for solving absolute value equations

-x = 12 and -x = -12 solve

x = -12 and x =12

Answer:

$x=\frac{7}{5}$

$y=-\frac{22}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The given expressions are.

$6x+y=4$

$x-4y=19$

We need to find x and y values.

Solution:

Equation 1⇒ $6x+y=4$

Equation 2⇒ $x-4y=19$

First solve the equation 1 for y.

$6x+y=4$

$y = 4-6x$ --------(3)

Substitute $y = 4-6x$ in equation 2.

$x-4(4-6x)=19$

Simplify.

$x-(4\times 4 - 4\times 6x)=19$

$x-(16-24x)=19$

$x-16+24x=19$

Add 16 both side of the equation.

$25x-16+16=19+16$

$25x=35$

$x=\frac{35}{25}$

Divide Numerator and denominator by 5.

$x=\frac{7}{5}$

Substitute x value in equation 3 and simplify.

$y=4-6(\frac{7}{5})$

$y=4-\frac{6\times 7}{5}$

$y=4-\frac{42}{5}$

$y=\frac{5\times 4-42}{5}$

$y=\frac{20-42}{5}$

$y=-\frac{22}{5}$ .

Therefore, the value of $x=\frac{7}{5}$ and $y=-\frac{22}{5}$ .

A grain silo has a diameter of 4.4 meters. The height of its cylindrical portion is 6.2 meters.

erastova [34]

Volume of a cylinder = Height x base are
H = 6.2 m
Bae are = π.R² ; Diameter =4.4 m, then Radius = 2.2 m
Base area = π(2.2)²
And Volume=:
V= (6.2).(π,2.2²) = (6.2).(π)(.4.84) = 30.008.π ≈ 94.2 m³
