<em>The right question is:</em>

\frac{1}{2}x - 3y = 9

5x + y = 28

Answer:

<em></em>x = 6<em> </em>

y = -2<em></em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{1}{2}x - 3y = 9

5x + y = 28

Required

Solve for x and y

Make y the subject of formula in the second equation

y = 28 - 5x

Substitute y = 28 - 5x in the first equation

\frac{1}{2}x - 3(28 - 5x) = 9

Open the bracket

\frac{1}{2}x - 3*28 - 3*- 5x = 9

\frac{1}{2}x - 84 + 15x = 9

Collect Like Terms

\frac{1}{2}x  + 15x = 9+ 84

\frac{x}{2}  + 15x = 9+ 84

\frac{x+30x}{2} = 93

\frac{31x}{2} = 93

Multiply both sides by 2

2 * \frac{31x}{2} = 93 * 2

31x = 186

Divide both sides by 31

\frac{31x}{31} = \frac{186}{31}

x = \frac{186}{31}

x = 6

Recall that y = 28 - 5x

So;

y = 28 - 5 * 6

y = 28 - 30

y = -2

Hence;

<em></em>x = 6<em> and </em>y = -2<em></em>

Please Solve this, it would be extremely helpful for me.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) ΔCPD & ΔEPF

∠CPD = ∠EPF   { Vertically opposite angles}

∠CDP = ∠PFE {CD║EF, FD is transversal, Alternate interior angles are equal}

ΔCPD ≈ΔEPF  {AA criteria for similarity }

\frac{DC}{EF} =\frac{PC}{EP}\\\\\\\frac{27}{EF}=\frac{15}{7.5}\\\\

Cross multiply

EF * 15 = 27 * 7.5

EF =\frac{27*7.5}{15}\\\\

EF = 27 * 0.5

EF = 13.5 cm

ii) EF // AB, so Triangles ACB & ECF are similar triangles

\frac{AB}{EF}=\frac{AC}{EC}\\\\\frac{22.5}{13.5}=\frac{AC}{22.5}

AC= \frac{22.5*22.5}{13.5}\\\\AC=37.5 cm

AC = 37.5 cm

A 9 cm tall cone shaped paper cup can hold up to 58.9 cm cubed of water. What is the minimum amount of paper needed to make the
babymother [125]
Volume of a cone, V = πr^2h/3

r = Sqrt 3V/πh = Sqrt [(58.9*3)/(3.14*9)] = 2.5 cm, minimum

Surface area, A = πr [r+ Sqrt (h^2+r^2)] =  3.14*2.5*[2.5+ Sqrt (9^2+2.5^2)] = 92.95 cm^2

Therefore, minimum amount of paper required is 92.95 cm^2
