Solve using elimination -3x + 4Y = 16 3x - y +14

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gnoma [55]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 8

y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equations;

-3x + 4Y = 16

3x - y =14

We are required to solve the two equations simultaneously using elimination

In this case, we will eliminate one unknown;

We eliminate x by adding the two equations;

That is;

-3x + 4Y = 16

3x - y =14

.............................

     3y = 30

       y = 10

Solving for x

3x - (10) = 14

3x = 14 +10

  3x = 24

   x = 8

Therefore, the solution of the equation is x=8 and y=10

What is the scale factor of two similar pyramids with volume of 13824 cubic feel and 216 cubic feet?
velikii [3]

Answer: The scale factor is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the pyramids are similar. The volume of one of these pyramids is  13,824 cubic feet and the volume of the other one is 216 cubic feet. Then:

V_1=13,824ft^3\\V_2=216ft^3

By Similar solids theorem, if two similar solids have a scale factor of \frac{a}{b}, then corresponding volumes have a ratio of \frac{a^3}{b^3}

Then:

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{a^3}{b^3}

Knowing this, we can find the scale factor. This is:

\frac{13,824}{216}=\frac{a^3}{b^3}\\\\\frac{13,824}{216}=(\frac{a}{b})^3\\\\\frac{a}{b}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{13,824}{216}}\\\\scale\ factor=\frac{a}{b}=4

What are the remaining angle measures if the figure is to be a parallelogram
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: b=101 c=79 d=101


Step-by-step explanation:

since it is a parallelogram opposite angels are congruent a = c ad b=d

because we know a=79 c must equal 79

and because all the angles must add up to 360 add 79+79 = 158

then subtract from 360- 158= 202 then divide by 2 and this will give us the value for b and d b,d=101
