Multiply top equation by -2, then add equations so b drops out....solve for a...plug in a to get b

ozzi3 years ago

Multiply the first equation by -2. This gives you a positive and a negative 8b, which can cancel out, leaving you with -16a = -40 and 5a = 62, which can be added together to make -11a = 22. Divide 22 by -11 to get a alone. A then equals -2. Plug -2 in for a in either equation. Solve for b, giving you -9. Plug these in again just to check if you'd like.

So, as a quick recap, just a is -2 and b is -9. Hope I helped!

Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal . What is the value of k?

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

The value of is equal to $k=60\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$(2k+11)\°=131\°$ -----> by alternate exterior angles

solve for k

$2k=131\°-11\°$

$k=120\°/2=60\°$

Mark walks 1/2 miles in 3/4 of an hour what is the unit rate per hours

lana [24]

Answer:

$unit \: rate = \frac{distance}{time} \\$

substitute:

$unit \: rate = \frac{( \frac{1}{2} )}{ ( \frac{3}{4}) } \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \div \frac{3}{4} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3} \\ \\ = \frac{4}{6} \\ \\ = { \underline{ \: \: \frac{2}{3} \: \: miles \: per \: hour \: \: }}$

1. Segment AB has the coordinates given.

denpristay [2]

The first image has a coordinate of A'(1, 6) B'(-3, 7)

<h3>How to calculate the coordinates of an image after a translation?</h3>

Translation can be defined as movement in a straight line.

Given the rule: (x,y) → (x + 3, y - 1) and A(-2,7) B(-6,8)

That means: A(x = -2, y =7) B(x = -6, y = 8)

Thus the translation will be:

A'(-2 +3, 7-1) B'(-6+3, 8-1) = A'(1, 6) B'(-3, 7)

Therefore, the coordinate of the image is A'(1, 6) B'(-3, 7)

A cylinder with a height of 12 cm has a volume of 1728 pi cm^ 3 What is the diameter of the cylinder?

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let r be radius of the cylinder.

volume of cylinder=πr²h

1728π=πr²×12

r²=1728 π/12π=144

r=√144=12

diameter=2r=2×12=24 cm
