4 0

<span>Suppose 2x + y = 15 -----eq 1 . x + 3y = 20 -----eq 2. Multiplying eq (1) by 1 and (2) by 2 and subtracting the result We have: 2x + y = 15 and 2x +6y =40.If we subtract, we have y - 6y = 15 - 40. So we have -5y = -25. y is 5. Substiting into eq (1), we have 2x + 5 = 15. 2x = 15-5 =10 Hence X =5.Hence option B is the correct option.</span>

What is the area of a sector with radius 6" and measure of arc equal to 120°?

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

12 π sq. in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference c = 2πr

Arc Length s = $(\frac{0^0}{360^0})$ (2πr)

s = $(\frac{120}{360})$ * 2π * 6 = 4π = 12

The points (2,-5) and (5,r) lie on a line with slope 2. Find the missing coordinate r.

Andrew [12]

Answer: r = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line can be represented as $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . Plugging in the following values would provide you with:

$\frac{(r)-(-5)}{(5)-(2)} =2$

$\frac{r + 5}{3} = 2$

$r + 5 = 6$

$r = 1$

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you want me to elaborate on anything.

Ms. White drives 8 miles each way, to and from her office. If she does this 5 days each week for 10 weeks, how many total miles

EastWind [94]

She will drive a total of 800 miles

8 times 2 because 8 miles each way would mean 16 miles in one day
five days a week so 16 times 5 = 80
for 10 weeks so 80 times 100 would mean a total of 800 miles
