Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by -7, and the second equation by 8, and then add.

What you're trying to do is cancel them out so they have to opposite signs in order for them to cancel out. You can't do that if the signs are the same, which is what option A suggests doing. B is the correct answer.

Find x when there's a right triangle,
jolli1 [7]
To find out the missing leg of a right triangle, you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. C is the hypotenuse. So, substitute the numbers into that equation. 

2^2 + 4^2 = x
4 + 16 = x
20 = \sqrt{x}

Please help me solve this #algebra #algebra1
Vesna [10]

Answer:

h = 430

Step-by-step explanation:

1290 = h/10 + h/5             Make h/5 into something that is something / 10

1290 = h/10 + 2h/(5*2)     Clean up the brackets.

1290 = h/10 + 2h/10         Add the right.

1290 = 3h/10                    Multiply both sides by 10

1290*10 = 10(3h/10)          

12900 = 3h                       Divide both sides by 3

h = 430

Sandy wants to cover a wooden cylinder with a diameter of 1 ft and a height of 4 ft with carpet to build a scratching post for h
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Sandy needs 14.13\ ft^{2} of carpet to build a scratching post for her cats

Step-by-step explanation:

Sandy needs to calculate the surface area of the cylinder

The surface area of the cylinder is equal to

SA=2\pi r^{2}+2\pi r(h)

we have

r=1/2=0.5\ ft ----> the radius is half the diameter

h=4\ ft

assume

\pi =3.14

substitute the values  

SA=2(3.14)(0.5)^{2}+2(3.14)(0.5)(4)

SA=14.13\ ft^{2}

Sandy needs 14.13\ ft^{2} of carpet to build a scratching post for her cats
