Given:

The system of equations is

x+3y=42       ...(i)

2x-y=14        ...(ii)

To find:

The number that must be multiplied with the second equation to eliminate the y-variable.

Solution:

Coefficient of y variable in equation (i) is 3 and in equation (ii) is -1.

To eliminate y-variable the absolute value of coefficients of y-variables should be same.

So, we need to multiply the second equation by 3 to eliminate the y-variable

Multiplying equation (ii) by 3, we get

6x-3y=42      ...(iii)

Adding (i) and (iii), we get

x+3y+6x-3y=42+42

7x=84

Divide both sides by 7.

x=12

Put x=12 in (i).

12+3y=42

3y=42-12

3y=30

Divide both sides by 10.

y=10

Therefore, x=12 and y=10.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

33.51 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the circle:

A = πr^2

A = π * 8^2

A = 64π = 201.06 in^2

Find the area of the 60 deg slice:

A * 60/360 = 33.51 in^2
