72 = x+x+5x+5x

72 = 12x

6 = x

In a circle, what is the ratio of the circumference to its diameter?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

D. pi

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of a circle = \pi d

Diameter = d

Therefore, ratio of circumference of a circle to its diameter would be:

\pi d : d

= \frac{\pi d}{d} = \pi => (d cancels d)

Therefore, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is \pi

Use Cramer's rule to find the solution to the following system of linear equations.
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

x = 53

y = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(I):-

Given equations are

x -2y =-7 ...(I)

5x-9y =-5 ..(ii)

The matrix form  AX = B

                    \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2\\ 5  & -9\\\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7\\-5\\\end{array}\right]

The determinant

= \left|\begin{array}{ccc}1&-2\\5&-9\\\end{array}\right| = -9+10 =1

By using Cramer's Rule

Δ₁ =      \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-7&-2\\\\-5&-9\end{array}\right]



The determinant is     Δ₁ = -9 X -7 - (10 ) = 53

x = Δ₁ / Δ

x = 53

The determinant

Δ₂ =



Δ₂ = -5 +35

     

 

y = Δ₂/Δ =  30
