Answer:

x = 2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the coefficient of x the same

Multiply the first equation by 29

31x + 29y = 33 becomes

899x + 841y = 957

Multiply the second equation by 31

29x + 31y = 27 becomes

899x + 961y = 837

Subtract the equations

(899x + 841y) - (899x + 961y) = 957 - 837

(899x - 899x) + (841y - 961y) = 120

841y - 961y = 120

-120y = 120

y = 120/-120 = -1

Substitute the value of y into both equations to find the value of x and check its right.

31x + 29y = 33

31x + 29(-1) = 33

31x - 29 = 33

31x = 33 + 29

31x = 62

x = 62/31 = 2

29x + 31y = 27

29x + 31(-1) = 27

29x - 31 = 27

29x = 27 + 31

29x = 58

x = 58/29 = 2

The main cable of a suspension bridge forms a parabola, described by the equation y = a(x - h)2 + k, where y is the height in fe
nirvana33 [79]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

When x = 30 ft, the cable is at 15 ft, therefore y(30) = 15.
That is,
a(30 - h)² + k = 15            (1)

Also, because the distance between the supports is 90 ft, therefore
y(0) = 6 ft, and y(90) = 6 ft
That is,
a(-h)² + k = 6                 (2)
a(90 - h)² + k = 6          (3)

From (2) and (3), obtain
a(90 - h)² = ah²
90² - 180h + h² = h²
180h = 90²
h = 45 ft.

From (1) and (2), obtain
225a + k = 15
2025a + k = 6

Therefore
1800a = -9
a = - 0.005
k = 15 - 225(-0.005) = 16.125 ft

Answer:
The equation for the cable is
y = - 0.005(x - 45)² + 16.125 

A graph of the solution verifies that the solution is correct.

Find the volume of the cylinder in terms of pi h = 6 in. and r = 3 in. A 54π in.3 B108π in.3 C324π in.3 D 27π in.3
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Option A. 54\pi\ in^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the cylinder is equal

V=\pi r^{2}h

where

r is the radius of the base of cylinder

h is the height of the cylinder

we have

r=3\ in

h=6\ in

substitute

V=\pi (3)^{2}(6)

V=54\pi\ in^{3}
