Given equations are y = 7x − 8 and y = 5x − 2

We can solve them easily using substion.

Plug y = 7x − 8 into y = 5x − 2

7x − 8 = 5x − 2

or 7x − 5x =8 − 2

or 2x = 6

or 2x/2 = 6/2

or x=3

Now plug x=3 into any of given equations say y = 5x − 2

y = 5(3) − 2=15-2=13

Hence (3,13) is the final answer.

Each container must hold exactly 1 litre of water Each container must have a minimum surface area

Arada [10]

The containers must be spheres of radius = 6.2cm

<h3>How to minimize the surface area for the containers?</h3>

We know that the shape that minimizes the area for a fixed volume is the sphere.

Here, we want to get spheres of a volume of 1 liter. Where:

1 L = 1000 cm³

And remember that the volume of a sphere of radius R is:

$V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*R^3$

Then we must solve:

$V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*R^3 = 1000cm^3\\\\R =\sqrt[3]{ (1000cm^3*\frac{3}{4*3.14} )} = 6.2cm$

The containers must be spheres of radius = 6.2cm
