STALIN [3.7K]3 years ago

Answer:

The numbers are 165 and 113

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> one number

y ----> the other number

we know that

x+y=278 ----> equation A

x=y+52 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

(y+52)+y=278

solve for y

2y=278-52

2y=226

y=113

<em>Find the value of x</em>

x=y+52

x=113+52=165

therefore

The numbers are 165 and 113

What is the approximate volume of this tree trunk if the circumference is 26π inches and the height of the trunk is 22 inches,
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Volume = 11680.44 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of the trunk of a tree = 2πr

Here, r = radius of the trunk

26π = 2πr

r = 13 inch

Since, volume of the cylindrical trunk = πr²h

= π(13)²(22)

= 3718π

= 11680.44 cubic inches

Solve the equation <br>y=2x-4, 3x+y=11​
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

(3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 2x - 4 → (1)

3x + y = 11 → (2)

Substitute y = 2x - 4 into (2)

3x + 2x - 4 = 11

5x - 4 = 11 ( add 4 to both sides )

5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = (2 × 3) - 4 = 6 - 4 = 2

Solution is (3, 2)

4x - 5y = 15<br> find the slope and y-intercept
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

slope=4/5

y-intercept = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

first we need to rewrite the expression to

y=mx+b

were b is the y-intercept and m the slope

4x-5y=15\\\\4x-5y+5y=15+5y\\\\4x+0=15+5y\\\\4x=5(3)+5(y)\\\\4x=5(3+y)\\\\\frac{1}{5}*4x= \frac{1}{5}*5(3+y) \\\\\frac{4x}{5}=3+y\\\\\frac{4x}{5} -3=3+y-3\\\\\frac{4x}{5} -3=y+0\\\\y=\frac{4x}{5} -3\\\\y=\frac{4}{5}x-3

so there we have it

m=\frac{4}{5} \\\\b=-3
