If 8x−4y=20 and 4x−8y=4, what is the value of x−y?

Mathematics

____ [38]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system:

8x−4y=20

4x−8y=4

Reduce the first equation by dividing every term by -2:

-4x + 2y = -10

and then combine this result with the second equation:

4x−8y=4

-4x + 2y = -10

--------------------

      -6y = -6, and so y = 1.  

According to the first equation, if y = 1, then 4x - 8 = 4, or x = 3.

Then x = 3 and y = 1.

So, finally, x - y = 3 - 1 = 2

<h2>Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle = π/4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of square be a and radius of circle be r.

The perimeter of a particular square and the circumference of a particular circle are equal.

Perimeter of square = 4 x a = 4a

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Given that

                      4a = 2πr

                        a=\frac{\pi r}{2}

We need to find the ratio of the area of the square to the area of the circle.

Area of the square = a²

Area of the circle = πr²

\texttt{Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle =}\frac{a^2}{\pi r^2}\\\\\texttt{Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle =}\frac{\left ( \frac{\pi r}{2}\right )^2}{\pi r^2}\\\\\texttt{Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle = }\frac{\pi}{4}

Ratio of area of the square to the area of the circle = π/4
