Answer:

(2, \frac{13}{3} )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 17 → (1)

3y = 15 - x → (2)

Substitute 3y = 15 - x into (1)

2x + 15 - x = 17, that is

x + 15 = 17 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations for corresponding value of y

Substituting in (1)

2(2) + 3y = 17

4 + 3y = 17 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3y = 13 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = \frac{13}{3}

Solution is (2, \frac{13}{3} )

Rearranging...

3y + x = 15

3y + 2x = 17

Using elimination method

2x - x = -15 + 17

X = 2

From equation.... 2

3y + 2 = 15

3y = 15 - 2

3y = 13

Y = 13/3

::x = 2 while y = 13/3

The Ms Jodi has 950 non fiction books. 40% of those books are about science topics and 30% are about history. How many books are
Bad White [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

well first you need to divide all the percents by 100.

40% = .40

30%= .30

and now you need to multiply those two by 950.

.40/950=4.20

.30/950=3.15

so ms jodi has about 3 books on history

Answer:

  • Slant Height = 20.1 km
  • Radius = 9 km
  • Lateral Area = 568.3 km²

Step-by-step explanation:

The slant height is read from the diagram as 20.1 km.

The radius is half the diameter, so is 9.0 km.

The lateral area is ...

  A = πrs = π(9.0 km)(20.1 km) ≈ 568.3 km²

__

Desmos uses r for a special purpose, so we have used r₁ to signify the radius of the cone. The "round" function works only to round to an integer, so special effort must be used to get rounding to 1 decimal place.
