Answer:
x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use elimination.
First, we need to multiply so that at least one variable can cancel out.
We can multiply the top equation by 2.
So we get
4x + 6y = 20
Then, we can use elimination.
The x's cancel out.
So we get 5y = 24
Or y = 24/5
Then, we can plug in this y value back into the first equation to find x.
2x + 3(24/5) = 10
2x + 72/5 = 50/5
2x = -22/5
x = -11/5
So x = -11/5 and y = 24/5
Volume without holes = 3 x 6 x 11 = 198 cubic inches.
Calculate volume of one hole:
3.14 x 0.5^2 x 3 = 2.355 cubic inches
There are 3 holes: 3 x 2.355 = 7.065
Subtract volume of the holes from the brick:
198 - 7.065 = 190.935 cubic inches.
Rounded to the nearest tenth: 190.9 cubic inches.
Answer: y=0,5x²-x-1,5.
Step-by-step explanation:

We summarize (1) and (3):

Substitute b=-1 into (2):

From (5) subtract (4):

Substitute a=0,5 into (4):

Hense:
y=0,5x²-x-1,5.
If you subtract 16 on both sides... x will be alone. Therefore 51-16=35
x=35 (B)
