4x + y = 5
3x + y = 8
y = -3x + 8
4x +(-3x + 8) = 5
4x -3x + 8 = 5
x + 8 = 5
x = -3
y = -3(-3) + 8
y = -9 + 8
y = -1
Answer:
1/12
THIS DESERVES BRAINLISTTT
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 12 possible outcomes, 6 for the die for each of the 2 for the coin. Only one comprises a 5 and a tail so the probability, assuming a fair coin and die, is 1/12.
Answer:
512 in³
Step-by-step explanation:
The height perpendicular to the base is the leg of a right triangle with hypotenuse 10 in and other leg 8 in. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find it as ...
h² +8² = 10²
h² = 100 -64 . . . . . subtract 8²
h = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root of 36
Then the volume is found using ...
V = (1/3)Bh = (1/3)(16 in)²(6 in) = 512 in³
The volume is 512 cubic inches.
_____
The 8-inch dimension used above comes from half the distance between the center of one side of the base to the center of the opposite side. (16 in)/2 = 8 in.
