Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first number = x

second number = y

x = y - 4

2y = 3x + 19

substitute x to the second equation

2y = 3(y-4) - 4

2y = 3y -16

-y = -16

y = 16

Go back to first equation

x = y - 4

x = 16 - 4

x = 12

An air conditioning system can circulate 320 cubic feet of air per minute. How many cubic yards of air can it circulate per minu

Agata [3.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, an air conditioning system can circulate 320 cubic feet of air per minute. We need to find how many cubic yards of air can it circulate per minute?

1 yard = 3 foot

1 feet = (1/3) yard

320 feet = 106.66 yard

$320\ \text{feet}^3=320\times( \dfrac{1}{3})^3\ \text{yard}^3\\\\=11.85\ \text{yard}^3$

So, it will circulate 11.85 cubic yard of air per minute.

erik [133]

Answer:

He will need 8.34 yards of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The length of the fabric, l = 2 2/3 yards = 8/3 yards

The width of the fabric, b = 1 1/2 yards = 3/2 yards

We need to find the piece of fabric Roberto needs. It is equal to the perimeter of the fabric such that,

$P=2(l+b)\\\\P=2(\dfrac{8}{3}+\dfrac{3}{2})\\\\P=2\times \dfrac{25}{6}\\\\P=8.34\ \text{yards}$

So, he will need 8.34 yards of fabric.
