The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of x for the equation 5x − 2x − 3 = −2 + 15: Step 1: 5x − 2x − 3

= −2 + 15 Step 2: 5x − 2x − 3 = 13 Step 3: 3x − 3 = 13 Which of these is most likely the next step? (4 points) 3x = 16 3x = 10 3x = 39 3x = 3
i believe it is 3x=3

Solve the following pairs of simultaneous equations.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

a) -4x + 5y = -9 (2)

2x + 3y = 21

Multiply the second equation by 2, you will get:

4x + 6y = 42 (1)

Use (1) plus with (2), you will get:

4x + (-4x) + 6y + 5y = -9 + 42

11y = 33

y = 33/11

y = 3

4x + 18 = 42

4x = 24

x = 6

b) 2x + 5y = -6

3x + 2y = 2

Multiply first equation by 3, you will get:

6x + 15y = -18 (1)

Multiply the second equation by 2 and you will get:

6x + 4y = 4 (2)

Subtract (1) by (2), we got:

6x -6x + 15y - 4y = -18 - 4

11y = -22

y = -22/11

y = -2

6x + 4y = 4

6x -8 = 4

6x = 12

x = 2

c) 2x - 2y = -4

5x + 4y = 17 (2)

Multiply the first euation by 2, we got:

4x - 4y = -4 (3)

Use (3) minus for (2), we get:

4x - 5x -4y + 4y = -4 - 17

-x = -21

x = 21

4x - 4y = -4

84 - 4y = -4

-4y = -4 + 84

-4y = 80

y = 80 / -4

y = -20

d) 2x - 3y = 6

4x - 5y = 9 (1)

Multiply the first equation by 2, we got:

4x - 6y = 12 (2)

Use (1) minus for (2), we got:

4x -4x - 5y - 6y = 9 -12

-11y = -3

y = -3/-11

y = 3/11

2x - 3y = 6

2x - 9/11 = 6

2x = 66/11 + 9/ 11

2x = 75/11

x = 75/11 * 1/2

x = 75 / 22

e) x/2 + y/3 = 2

x/4 + y/3 = 4

Use the first equation subtract the second equation, we got:

x/2 - x/4 + y/3 - y/3 = 2 - 4

2x/4 -x/4 = -2

x/ 4 = -2

x = -2 * 4

x = -8

x/2 + y/3 = 2

-8 / 2 + y/3 = 2

y / 3 = 2 + 4

y/3 = 6

y = 6*3

y = 18

f) x/3 + y/2 = 3/2 (1)

x/2 + y/5 = -1/2 (2)

I don't know how to solve this, sr

Hope this helped :3

Find the volume of the following compound shape.<br>​
Bess [88]
<h3>Given:</h3>
  • Cone
  • Cylinder
<h3>Volume of the cone:</h3>

v =  \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2} h

v =  \frac{1}{3}  \times \pi \times  {10}^{2}  \times 10

v = 1047.20 \:  {cm}^{3}

<h3>Volume of the cylinder:</h3>

v = \pi {r}^{2} h

v = \pi \times  {10}^{2}  \times 10

v = 3141.59 \:  {cm}^{3}

<h3>Total volume:</h3>

v = 1047.20 + 3141.59

v = 4188.79 \:  {cm}^{3}

<u>Hence</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>volume</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>given</u><u> </u><u>cone</u><u> </u><u>shape</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>4188.7</u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>cubic</u><u> </u><u>centimeters</u><u>.</u>

valentinak56 [21]

1st piece = x

2nd piece = x+2

3rd piece = x+2+3 = x+5

37 = x +x+2 + x+5 =

37 = 3x+7

30=3x

x = 30/3 = 10

 1st piece = 10 inches

 2nd piece = 10+2 = 12 inches

 3rd piece = 10+5 = 15 inches
