Answer:

y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers,  

x

,

y

. We know two things about them:

2

x

+

y

=

25

3

x

−

y

=

20

Let's add these two equations together which will cancel the  

y

:

5

x

+

0

y

=

45

x

=

45

5

=

9

We can now substitute in the  

x

value into one of the original equations (I'll do both) to get to  

y

:

2

x

+

y

=

25

2

(

9

)

+

y

=

25

18

+

y

=

25

y

=

7

3

x

−

y

=

20

3

(

9

)

−

y

=

20

27

−

y

=

20

Craig is designing a new cylinder-shaped can for a pet food company. He wants the height of the can to be 40 mm and the radius o
devlian [24]
The height of the can for this case is given by:
 h = 40 mm
 The radius of the can is given by:
 r = (1 3/8) * h
 Substituting values:
 r = (1 3/8) * 40
 r = 55 mm
 Therefore, the diameter of the can is:
 d = 2 * r
 d = 2 * 55
 d = 110 mm
 Answer:
 
The diameter of the can will be:
 
d = 110 mm

PLEASE SOME ONE HELP ME IM DYING!!!!!
Afina-wow [57]
We know the area of the middle rectangle is 48 (length * width). removing that rectangle leaves us with two semicircles. you can combine those semicircles to be the equivalent of one circle. the area for a circle is r^2 * pi. we know the diameter is 4 because that is where we cut the semicircles. radius is half the diameter, so r is 2. 2^2 is 4, 4* pi is 12.56. add 12.56 (area of semicircles) with 48 (area of rectangle) and we get 60.56

Consider all numbers consisting of four different digits all between 1 and 9 . How many of these are odd
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

1680

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering repeatition is not allowed.

We can  use permutation to reach to the required answer.

Consider four digits to be placed in four boxes. Now for the number to be odd, unit digit must be odd. Therefore, unit digit can only be filled by 1, 3, 5,7, or 9. That is 5 ways. Now, other three boxes can be filled with 8, 7 and 6 ways respectively.

Therefore, Total numbers = 5×8×7×6 = 1680
