In this problem, we need to plug in the given x values for

and find a and b.
When we plug in 1, we get:

Simplify:



We got our first statement about the values of the variables. If we find one more we can find those 2 variables.
We have another given root: 4.
Plug it in:




Now we have our second one. We can combine them:

I use elimination method which is easier here.
Multiply the top equation by -1:

Add them up:

Simplify:

Now we have a, we can plug in one of those equations to find b:



So, the answers are

and

.
Answer:
The answer is B: (1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
(solved using elimination method)
-2x+y=0
y=x+1
-x+y=1
-2x+y=0
x+y=-1
-x=-1
x=1
-1+y=1
y=2
(x,y)=(1,2)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Two times the quantity of a number minus 12.
Represent the number with the variable y.
The quantity of a number minus 12 is then: (y-12).
Two times this quantity is 2(y-12).
So the answer is 2(y-12), which is B.
Im not sure, when in doubt pick C
The formula of a volume of a cone:

We have:

Substitute:

Answer: 1206 cm³
