one whole cake is 5/5

Solve each system of equations; nonlinear algebra 2<br><br> x2 + x + y - 26 = 0<br> x + y = 1

BigorU [14]

Answer:

(5,-4) and (-5,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x^2+x+y-26=0\\ \\x+y=1\end{array}\right.$

Solve it. First, express y in terms of x from the second equation:

$y=1-x$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$x^2+x+1-x-26=0\\ \\x^2-25=0\\ \\(x-5)(x+5)=0$

Apply zero product property:

$x-5=0\ \text{or}\ x+5=0$

So,

$x=5\ \text{or}\ x=-5$

When $x=5,$ then $y=1-5=-4$

When $x=-5,$ then $y=1-(-5)=6$

We get two solutions: (5,-4) and (-5,6)

nika2105 [10]

The volume of cone is calculated by the formula $V= \frac{1}{3} \pi R^2H$ , where H is a height of cone and R is a radius of the bottom.
In your case, R=3 cm and R=7 cm. Then $V= \frac{1}{3} \pi* 3^2*7= \frac{63\pi}{3} =21\pi$ .
Answer: The volume of candy is 21π.
