First, isolate x in x-4y=11 because 1 is x's coefficient.
x-4y=11
x=11+4y
Now, substitute 4y+11 for x in 5x-7y=-10.
5x-7y=-10
5(4y+11)-7y=-10
20y+55-7y=-10
Add all coefficients.
13y+55=-10
Isolate y by subtracting 55 from both sides.
13y+55=-10
13y=-10-55
13y=-65
y=-5
Now substitute -5 for y in your first equation.
x=11+4y
x=11+4(-5)
x=11-20
x=-9
Your answer would be (-9,-5).

The director would have to pay $40.47.

If each scholar eats one slice of pizza, then there would be two pizza pies because 8 slices plus another 8 slices in 16

8+8=16

If all of them eat another .5 slice, adding up the halves would equal 8

.5 x 16 = 8

In total, the director would have to buy three pizzas which equals up to our total of $40.47

Please answer #1 and #2

DIA [1.3K]

1)
x^2 + (3y/2z) = 7
2x^2z + 3y = 14z
3y = 14z - 2x^2z
3y = 2z(7 - x^2)
y = 2/3(z)(7 - x^2)

2)
(3zx^4) /(5+z) = 2y
3zx^4 = 2y(5+z)
3zx^4 = 10y + 2yz

Question 7

serg [7]

$\huge\underline{\red{A}\blue{n}\pink{s}\purple{w}\orange{e}\green{r} -}$

Given - a cone with volume 769?3 ft³ , having a height of 15 ft

To calculate - radius of the cone

We know that ,

$\bold{Volume \: of \: cone = \frac{1}{3}\pi \: r {}^{2} h }\\$

substituting the values in the formula stated above ,

$\bold{769.3 = \frac{1}{3} \times 3.14 \times r {}^{2} \times 15} \\ \\\bold{\implies r {}^{2} = \frac{769.3 \times 3}{3.14 \times 15} } \\ \\\bold{\implies r {}^{2} = \cancel\frac{2307.9}{47.1}} \\ \\\bold{ \implies \: r {}^{2} = 49} \\ \\ \bold{\implies \: r = 7 \: ft}$

therefore ,

radius = 7 cm
