After solving the system of equations, x= -3 and y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the following system of equations by substitution.

$-3x + y = 15\,\,\,(1)\\-8x-7y = -18\,\,\,(2)$

Finding value of y from equation(1) and substituting it in equation(2)

$y=15+3x\\substituting\,\,in\,\,equation(2)\\-8x-7(15+3x)=-18\\Solving:\\-8x-105-21x=-18\\-8x-21x=-18+105\\-29x=87\\x=\frac{87}{-29}\\x=-3\\$

The value of x is x=-3

Now, Finding value of x from eq(1) and substituting in equation(2)

$-3x=15-y\\x=\frac{15-y}{-3}\\Substituting\,\,in\,\,equation(2)\\-8(\frac{15-y}{-3})-7y=-18\\\frac{120-8y}{3}-7y=-18\\\frac{120-8y-7y*3}{3}=-18\\\frac{120-8y-21y}{3}=-18\\\frac{120-29y}{3}=-18\\120-29y=-18*3\\120-29y=-54\\-29y=-54-120\\-29y=-174\\y=\frac{-174}{-29}\\y=6$

So, Value of y is y=6

After solving the system of equations, x= -3 and y=6

What is the area of a sector with a central angle of (2pi/3) radians and a diameter of 12 in?

Stels [109]

Answer:

The area of the sector is $37.68\ in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the circle

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=12/2=6\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

$A=(3.14)(6)^{2}$

$A=113.04\ in^{2}$

step 2

Find the area of a sector with a central angle of (2pi/3)

Remember that

The area of $113.04\ in^{2}$ subtends a central angle of $2\pi \ radians$

so

by proportion

Let

x----> the area of the sector

$\frac{2\pi}{113.04}=\frac{(2\pi/3)}{x}\\ \\x=113.04*(2\pi/3)/(2\pi)\\ \\x=37.68\ in^{2}$

There are 4 white and 5 red (indistinguishable) balls in a bag. Suppose you draw one ballout at a time without replacement and s

Alchen [17]

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have in this question are four white balls and 5 red balls.

This is the sample space

[(4w,0R) (4w,1R)(4w,2R)(4w,3R)(4w,4R)(0w,5R)(1w,5R)(2w,5R)

So we have 9 possible sets of events

The event number with the last ball being white = 5

Probability of the last ball drawn being white = 5/9

= 0.56

0.24a + 0.5 = 4.5 What does the variable equal

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

16.66

Step-by-step explanation:

1) eliminate constant first by performing the opposite operation:

0.24a+0.5-0.5=4.5-0.5

0.24a=4.0

divide both sides by 0.24

a=16.66
