Answer:

x=10

y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5y= 15...eqn. 1

2x + 4y= 8...eqn. 2

multiply eqn. 1 by 2 and eqn. 2 by 3

6x + 10y = 30...eqn. 3

6x + 12y = 24...eqn. 4

0 - 2y = 6

divide both sides by the coefficient of y which is -2

- 2y = 6

- 2 -2

y= -3

Put y= -3 into eqn. 1

3x + 5(-3) = 15

3x - 15 = 15

3x =15 + 15

3x = 30

3 3

x = 10

Therefore X= 10 and Y= -3

$\bf sin^2(\theta)+cos^2(\theta)=1\implies cos^2(\theta)=1-sin^2(\theta)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
r=4sin(\theta )cos^2(\theta )\implies r=4sin(\theta )[1-sin^2(\theta )]
\\\\\\
r=4sin(\theta )-4sin^3(\theta )\qquad \qquad 
\begin{cases}
r=4sin(30^o)-4sin^3(30^o)\\
r=4sin(60^o)-4sin^3(60^o)\\
r=4sin(90^o)-4sin^3(90^o)
\end{cases}$

$\bf \begin{cases}
r=4\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)-4\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^3\\\\
r=4\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)-4\left( \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \right)^3\\\\
r=4(1)-4(1)^3
\end{cases}\implies 
\begin{cases}
r=2-\frac{1}{2}\\\\
r=2\sqrt{3}-\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\
r=4-4
\end{cases}\implies 
\begin{cases}
r=\frac{1}{2}\\\\
r=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\\\\
r=0
\end{cases}$
