Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First label the equations.

6x +3y= 18 -----(1)

y= -2x +5 -----(2)

subst. (2) into (1):

6x +3(-2x +5)= 18

6x +3(-2x) +3(5)= 18 (expand)

6x -6x +15= 18

15= 18 (simplify)

(reject)

There is no solution.

<u>Further explanation</u><u>:</u>

If I rewrite the first equation into the form of y=mx+c, I would get

6x +3y=18

3y= 18 -6x (bring y term to one side)

y= 6- 2x (÷3 throughout)

y= -2x +6

Notice that the gradients of both lines are equal ( -2). This implies that they are parallel to each other and will never meet. Hence there are no solutions.

90,88,88,87,84,95,90,80,98,and 100

Nitella [24]

In order to find the median the 1st thing I would do is put the number in order
80,84,87,88,88,90,90,95,98,100
then cross them out Start with left then go the right and so on...
until you get 1 number in the middle left (Since theirs 2 numbers in the middle add them up and divide by two ) 88+90=178 178/2=89
Median = 89

Now in Order to find the mean add up all the numbers and divide by however many numbers their are
You should get 900 then divide by 10 because their were 10 numbers

So Median=89 & Mean=90

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

strategy: find the distance of the two points, take half of that, b/c that will be the radius, Then use the area of a circle formula to find the answer

P1 = (1,-1) in the form (x1,y1)

P2= ((3,3) in the form (x2,y2)

dist = sqrt [ (x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2 ]

dist = sqrt [ 3 -1 )^2 + 3-(-1)^2 ]

dist = sqrt [ 2^2 + 4^2 ]

dist = sqrt [ 4 + 16 ]

dist = sqrt [20]

r = $\sqrt{20}$ /2

area of circle = $\pi$ $r^{2}$

area of circle = $\pi$ ( $\sqrt{20}$ /2)^2

area of circle = $\pi$ ( $\sqrt{20}$ /2)( $\sqrt{20}$ /2)

area of circle = $\pi$ (20 / 4)

area of circle = $\pi$ 5

area of circle = 5 $\pi$
