2x+y=9 (*2) __ 4x+2y=18 name it 1.  8x-2y=6 name it 2. Now add both equations, 1 & 2. 4x+2y+8x+-2y=18+6. 2y will be cancelled out. You'll be left with 12x=24, x=2. Then replace the value of x which is 2 in either equation 1 or 2. I'll go with 1 equation 4(2)+2y=18  2y=18-8=10 y=5. Using the equation 2 should provide the same result of y.

A right circular cone is undergoing a transformation in such a way that the radius of the cone is increasing at a rate of 1/2 in
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The volume is decreasing at the rate of 1.396 cubic inches per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Cone

\frac{dr}{dt} =\frac{1}{2} --- rate of the radius

\frac{dh}{dt} =-\frac{1}{3} --- rate of the height

r = 2

h = \frac{1}{3}

Required

Determine the rate of change of the cone volume

The volume of a cone is:

V = \frac{\pi}{3}r^2h

Differentiate with respect to time (t)

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}(2rh \frac{dr}{dt} + r^2 \frac{dh}{dt})

Substitute values for the known variables

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}(2*2*\frac{1}{3}* \frac{1}{2} - 2^2 *\frac{1}{3})

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}(\frac{4}{3}* \frac{1}{2} - \frac{4}{3})

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}(\frac{4}{3}(\frac{1}{2} - 1))

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}(\frac{4}{3}*- 1)

\frac{dV}{dt} = -\frac{\pi}{3}*\frac{4}{3}

\frac{dV}{dt} = -\frac{22}{7*3}*\frac{4}{3}

\frac{dV}{dt} = -\frac{22}{21}*\frac{4}{3}

\frac{dV}{dt} = -\frac{88}{63}

\frac{dV}{dt} =-1.396in^3/min

The volume is decreasing at the rate of 1.396 cubic inches per minute

A ladder is leaning against a vertical wall. The distance from the top of the ladder to the base of the wall is 17 feet. The dis
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

18.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

-use the formula C^2 = A^2 + B^2 for a right triangle, which is made by the ladder and the wall.

-let the ladder be C, the wall be a, the base to the bottom be b.

-substitude into the equation, which will leave us with:

C^2 = 17^2 + 7^2

C^2 = 289 + 49

C^2 = 338

C = square root of 338, which is 18.4 feet!
