10x + 3y + 1,5 = 50,1 * (- 4) ⇒ -40x-12y-6 = -200,4
<span>8x + 12y + 1,5 = 51,9
combine
8x-40x+12y-12y+1.5-6=51.9-200.4  *(-1)</span>⇔
<span>32x+4.5=148.5
32x=148.5-4.5
x=</span><span>144/32
</span>x=4.5 (<span>textbook)
</span><span>10*4.5+3y+1.5=50.1
3y+46.5=50.1
3y=3.6
y=1.2 (</span><span>workbook)</span>

V=1024 pi m^3 and v=250 pi m^3
