Answer:

Multiply x + y = 3 by 3 and add it to -3x - 2y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

When using elimination to solve a system of equations, you multiply one equation by some number. The reason for doing this is that when you add it to the second equation, you want one variable to cancel out. When one variable cancels out (in this case x), you can solve for the other variable (in this case y). I will show this:

3(x + y = 3) = 3x + 3y = 9

   3x +  3y =  9

+ -3x + -2y = -7

---------------------------

              y  = 2

Now, knowing that y = 2, you can substitute y=2 into either equation to solve for x.

-3x - 2(2) = -7

-3x -4 = -7

-3x = -3

x = 1 | to double check (1, 2) as your answer plug these values into both equations

Finding this solution would not have been possible if not for cancelling out the x's above. The other three are wrong because none of the other options cancels out one of the variables.

What is the volume of a hemisphere with a diameter of 45.7 m, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter?
worty [1.4K]

24987.2 meters cubed.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Hemisphere is 1/2 of a sphere, so let's find the volume of a sphere and then cut it in half.

The volume of a sphere is V= (4/3)πr3

The diameter is double the size of the radius, so we can find r, the radius, by dividing the diameter,

45.7m, by 2. So r = 22.85 meters

so the volume of the sphere is (4/3)π(22.85 meters)3, which is 49974.35787 meters cubed.

Since we're actually looking for the Hemisphere, we can divide this volume in half to get the volume of the hemisphere as 24987.17894 meters cubed.

And because the answer must be to 1/10th of a cubic meter, that means we only want one decimal point. So we round to 24987.2 meters cubed.

Answer:

1047.2 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 4(pi)(r³/3)

V = 4(pi)(125/3)

V = 523.6 cubic inches (1 ball)

V = 2(523.6) = 1047.2 cubic inches (total)
