Answer:x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-y=11 equation1

x+3y=-5 equation2

multiplying equation 2 by 2 in order to cancel x

2(x+3y=-5)

2x+6y=-10 equation 3

subtacting equation 1 and 3

2x-2x-y-6y=11-(-10)

-7y=21

y=-3

put the value of y in equation 1 to find the value of x

2x-(-3)=11

2x=11+3

2x=14

x=7

a box cost $2.48, but it is on sale for $1.49. How much do you save on one box when bought on sale? Now how much would you save

Answer:

1. $0.99

2. $1.98

Step-by-step explanation:

1. From the question we have

Cost of box = $2.48

Selling price = $1.49

That is the box is discounted from $2.48 to $1.49

Therefore, amount saved = $2.48 - $1.49 = $0.99

2. The amount saved from buying a second box is hence;

2 × $0.99 = $1.98

Hence, as the number of boxes bought increases, the amount saved increases

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you had a solid cylinder, in order to find the amount of material that makes up that solid cylinder, you would find the volume using the radius of 4 (half of the diameter 8). BUT we want to know the volume of the solid with the radius of 4 minus the solid that has a radius of 2.5 (half of the diameter 5).

$V_o-V_i$ That's volume outer - volume inner. To find the outer volume:
