Answer:

x = 3; y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 2y = 15

2x + 4y = -18

Multiply both sides of the first equation by 2. Write the second equation below it, and add the two equations.

2x - 4y = 30

(+) 2x + 4y = -18

---------------------------

4x = 12

4x/4 = 12/4

x = 3

Now we substitute 3 for x in the first equation and solve for y.

x - 2y = 15

3 - 2y = 15

-2y = 12

y = -6

Answer: x = 3; y = -6

Answer: After 18.05 minutes, the temperature of steel becomes 100 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial temperature = 2500

At t = 0,

we get that

$f(t)=Ce^{-kt}+80\\\\2500=C+80\\\\2500-80=C\\\\2420=C$

After 2 minutes, the temperature of the steel is 1500 degrees.

so, it becomes,

$1500=2420e^{-2k}+80\\\\1500-80=2420e^{-2k}\\\\\dfrac{1420}{2420}=e^{-2k}\\\\0.587=e^{-2k}\\\\\ln 0.587=-2k\\\\-0.533=-2k\\\\k=\dfrac{0.533}{2}\\\\k=0.266$

So, We need to find the number of minutes when the temperature of steel would be 100 degrees.

So, it becomes,

$100=2420e^{-0.266t}+80\\\\100-80=2420e^{-0.266t}\\\\20=2420e^{-0.266t}\\\\\dfrac{20}{2420}=e^{-0.266t}\\\\\ln \dfrac{20}{2420}=-0.266t\\\\-4.8=-0.266t\\\\t=\dfrac{4.8}{0.266}\\\\t=18.05$

Hence, after 18.05 minutes, the temperature of steel becomes 100 degrees.

The product of multiplication of 16 × 9 gives us; 144

<h3>Multiplication</h3>

We want to find the product of 16 and 9.

Now, to solve this we can use a little illustration for example if I have a basket of oranges and I want to given 9 people each 16 oranges, it means that the total number of oranges I will give out is; 16 × 9 = 144

Thus, our question answer is 16 × 9 = 144
