Answer:

x = 3, y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find a variable to cancel out. Y will be easiest.

Multiply that equation by -2 to create $-8x-2y = -24$

Now we can cancel y out and solve for x.

add the variables together to make 10x = 30

x = 3

Now that we have x, we can plug it in for either equation to find y.

$4(3) + y = 12$

y = 0

5x + y = 15

y = -5x + 15

Substituting y= -5x+15 from first equation into second equation:

3x + 2y = 16

3x + 2·(-5x + 15) = 16

3x - 10x + 30 = 16

-7x + 30 = 16

7x = 30 - 16 = 14

x = 2

Substituting x=2 into the first equation:

5x + y = 15

5(2) + y = 15

10 + y = 15

y = 15 - 10

y = 5

So your final answers are x=2 and y=5.

What is the center of the data?

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

$Median = 13$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for dot plot

Required

The center of data

This implies that, we calculate the median

From the attached plot,

$n = 13$ --- number of observation

So, the median is:

$Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}$

$Median = \frac{13 + 1}{2}$

$Median = \frac{14}{2}$

$Median = 7th$

The median is at the 7th position

At the 7th position, is 13

Hence:

$Median = 13$

How to find the volume of the cone

gavmur [86]

Answer:

The closest measurement to the volume of hat is 84.82 in.³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The dimensions of hat are height(h) 9 inches and diameter(d) 6 inches.

Now, to find the volume of cone:

Putting the formula $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$ .

Radius(r) is not given, finding the radius:

Radius(r)=half of the diameter(d)

$r=\frac{d}{2}$

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

$r=3$ .

Then, $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

= $\frac{1}{3}\times\pi \times3^{2}\times9$

= $\frac{1}{3}\times3.14\times9\times9$ ( $\pi =3.14$ )

= $\frac{1}{3} \times254.34$

= $\frac{254.34}{3}$

= $84.78$ in.³

So, the volume is 84.78 in.³ .

Therefore, the closest measurement to the volume of hat is 84.82 in.³.

Help! Will give brainly! Explain why the value x=4 is not a solution to the inequality 2x>10

melamori03 [73]

Answer

8 is not greater than 10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x>10

2(4)>10

8<10

x=4 can not be the solution to this equation because 8 is less than 10
