The point of intersection of the linear equations is approximately (x,y) = (2.286, -4.857).

The most quickest approach that offers a reasonable solution consist in representing both linear functions graphically by means of a graphing tool (i.e. Desmos). As there is a system of two equation and two variables, the system can be represented by 2D-graphing tool.

The solution of this system is represented by the point, in which both lines intercepts each other. Let be the following two linear functions:

y = 3\cdot x + 2 (1)

y = \frac{1}{2}\cdot x - 6 (2)

The result from graphic tool is presented below and the point of intersection is approximately (x,y) = (2.286, -4.857).

Answer:

The reasonable estimate for the solution is (2.29, -4.87)

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasonable estimate for the solution is the point where the two lines intersect each other.

To get the point where they intersect, we will simply equate the system of equations given as shown:

-3x+2=\frac{1}{2}x-6\\Collect \ the \ like \ terms\\-3x-\frac{1}{2}x=-6-2\\\frac{-7x}{2}=-8\\-7x=-16\\x=\frac{16}{7}    \\x=2.29

Substitute x = 2.29 into any of the equation

Using the equation y = -3x+2

y = -3(2.29)+2

y = -6.87+2

y =-4.87

This shows that the reasonable estimate for the solution is (2.29, -4.87)

What is the volume of the cylinder use pie = 3.14 and round to the nearest tenth if needed
shepuryov [24]
Volume of a cylinder = π · radius(r)² · height(h)

Since you didn't provide the radius or the height, I am unable to provide a solution to this problem but hopefully you can solve it on your own now that you have the formula.

Find the measure of one interior angle for the following regular polygon
garik1379 [7]
To find the sum of the interior angles you use the formula (n-2)(180), where n is the number of sides. In this case, the number of sides is 12, so you get 1800 degrees. Then you divide by number of angles which is 12. So your answer is 150 degrees.

Answer: When humans urbanize an area they

Step-by-step explanation: I think this because before people urbanized the place it was probably like a rural place or suburban. When you urbanize a place you might be taking a person or an  animals homeland away and that can be a bad impact on them.
