Mathematics
1 answer:
sergey [27]3 years ago

Answer:

A. (3, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the addition/elimination for this to avoid fractions.  You could solve one of the equations for y or x and then sub that value into the other equation, but you would have to deal with fractions along the way, so let's just not.  Using the addition/elimination (they're the same thing; math books sometimes use one or the other), we line up our equations:

 5x  +  2y  =  9

 2x  -  3y   = 15

It looks like if we want to eliminate the y terms, we can multiply the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by 2 to get a whole new set of equations:

 15x  +  6y  =  27

  4x  -   6y  =  30

Now we can see that when we add down the columns, the y's cancel each other out.  6y's minus 6y's leaves us with no y's.  What we are left with is

19x = 57 so

x = 3.

Now we will sub that 3 back in to either of the original equations to solve for y:

2(3) - 3y = 15 and

6 - 3y = 15 and

-3y = 9 so

y = -3

The solution set then is (3, -3)

2 4

125

x 18

------

1000

2. next multiply the 8 by 5 getting 40, drop the 0 anf move the 4 to the top above 2.

3. multiply 8 by 2 getting 16, then add the 4 you have ontop of the 2 to the 16 getting 20. Drop the 0 and bring the 2 over and place it above the one.

4. multiply 8 by 1 getting 8 then add the 2 above the 1 to 8 getting 10. Then put the ten infront of the tw zeros. 1000

125

x 18

--------

1000

0

Next add a 0 as a place filler under the 0 at the end.

125

x 18

-------

1000

1250

Then multiply the 1 by 5, then 1 by 2, then finnaly 1 by 1, getting you 1250.

1000

+1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of a rectangle solid = 3 m

Width of a rectangle solid = 0.6 m

Height of a rectangle solid = 0.4 m

To find: Volume of the solid

Solution:

Volume of the solid = length × breadth × height

=3\times 0.6\times 0.4=0.72\,\,m^3

So, the number of cubic meters in the volume of the solid is 0.72\,\,m^3
