Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - y = 5..........… Equation 1

x + 2y = 8 ............. Equation 2

Make x the subject in equation 2 and substitute it into equation 1

That's

x = 8 - 2y

We have

4( 8 - 2y ) - y = 5

32 - 8y - y = 5

- 9y = - 27

Divide both sides by - 9

We have the final answer as

Substitute y = 3 into x = 8 - 2y

That's

x = 8 - 2(3)

= 8 - 6

Hope this helps you

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-y=5-----×1.

x+2y=8----×4.

which will be....

4x-y=5

- 4x+8y=32.

____________

-9y=-27

----- ----

-9. -9.

y=3.

then substitute into any equation...

equation one.

4x-3=5.

4x=5+3.

4x=8.

x=8/4.

x=2.

therefore y=3 and x=2.

*Find the area of the figure below. Use 3.14 for pi.<br><br> Area= square inches

alex41 [277]

Answer:

100.26

Step-by-step explanation:

You would find the area of the semi circles on either side of the rectangle by plugging the diameter into the formula for the area of a circle. Then you would add that to the are of the rectangle.

This is what that would look like:

1. Divide 6 (the diameter) by 2 because $r=\frac{1}{2} d$

$r=\frac{1}{2} 6$

$r=3$

2. plug into the formula $A=\pi r^{2}$

$A=\pi 3^{2}$

3. square the 3

$A=\pi 9$

4. multiply 9 by 3.14 (pi)

$A=28.26$

This means the area of both the semi circles added together would equal 28.26

Then you would use the formula $A=lw$ to find the area of the rectangle

1. plug in the numbers given

$A= 12$ · $6$

2. solve

$A=72$

Then add the area of the semicircles to the area of the rectangle

$A=28.26+72$

to get the area of the entire figure:

$A=100.26$

Find the value of x from the equation

Jobisdone [24]

$\dfrac{8^{3x}}{2^{10}}=\dfrac{4^{2x}}{16} \\\dfrac{2^{3(3x)}}{2^{10}}=\dfrac{4^{2x}}{4^2} \\2^{9x-10}=4^{2x-2} \\2^{9x-10}=2^{2(2x-2)} \\2^{9x-10}=2^{4x-4} \\9x-10=4x-4 \\5x-6=0 \\5x=6 \\\boxed{x=\dfrac{6}{5}}$

Hope this helps.
