Answer:

<h3>Option 4: y = 3 – 2a</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation;

ax + by = ab  ......... 1

2ax + 3by = 3b .....2

Required

Express y in terms of a

Using elimination method to eliminate x variable.

eqn 1 * 2 and eqn 2 *1 will give;

2ax + 2by = 2ab

2ax + 3by = 3b

Subtract

2by - 3by = 2ab - 3b

-by = 2ab - 3b

-by = b(2a-3)

-y = 2a-3

multiply through by -1

y = -2a + 3

y = 3-2a

Hence the value of y in terms of a is y = 3-2a

The radius of the base of a right circular cone is 4 in., and its slant height is 15 in. If the radius and the slant height are
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

radius r = 4 in

slant height L = 15 in

base area = πr² = 16π in²

lateral area = πrL = 60π  in²

surface area = 76π in²

r = 4×6, L = 15×6

base area = (4×6)²π = 16π×36

lateral area = 60π×36

surface area is multiplied by 36
