Answer:

x= 8   y= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you identify your variables:

x= larger number

y= smaller number

Second, you find your equations:

x - y = 7

2x + 3y = 19

Third, (I used the substitution method) you make "y" by itself for the 1st equation.

y = x - 7

2x + 3y = 19

Then, you plug in the 1st equation for "y" in the 2nd equation

2x + 3(x - 7) = 19

Then, you distribute and simplify.

2x + 3x - 21 = 19

5x - 21 = 19

5x = 40

x = 8

Finally, you plug in the variable you found ( x ) into one of the equations and solve,

8 - y = 7

- y = -1

y = 1

An hourglass consists of two sets of congruent composite figures on either end. Each composite figure is made up of a cone and a
belka [17]
Answer: third option 268.8

Explanation:

For this kind of proble it is very important that you attach the figure because it contains important information to understand the question.

I have attached the figure for better understanding.

1) The top portion (and the bottom is congruent but rotated 180°) of the hourglass is a figure equivalent to a cylinder on top and a cone on bottom.

So the total volume contained in the top portion is the volume of a cylinder + the volume of a cone.

This is how you calculate the volume of the top portion:

1) The height of the cylinder is 54 mm - 18 mm = 36 mm

2) The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = π (radius)^2 * height

radius = 8 mm
height = 36 mm

=> V = π(8mm)^2 * 36 mm = 2304π (mm)^3

3) The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)π(radius)^2 * height

radius = 8 mm
height = 18 mm

V = (1/3)π(8mm)^2 * 18 mm = 384π (mm)^3

4) The total volume of the top portion is volumen of the cylindrical part + voume of the cone:

Total voluem = 2304π (mm)^3 + 384π (mm)^3 = 2688π (mm)^3

5) To find the number of seconds <span>it take until all of the sand has dripped to the bottom of the hourglass you have to divide the total volumen of sand by the rate:

time in seconds = total volume of sand / rate of dripping

time in seconds = [2688 π (mm)^3 ] / [10π (mm)^3 / s] = 268.8 s

That is the answer: 268.8 s

What is the length of the conjugate axis? (y-2)^2/16 -(x+1)^2/144=1
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer: 24

A hyperbola is the locus of a point in a plane which moves in the plane in such a way that the ratio of its distance from a fixed point in the same plane to its distance from a fixed line is always constant, which is always greater than unity.

the fixed point is called the focus and the fixed line is directrix and the ratio is the eccentricity.

The general equation for the vertical hyperbola is

            [ (y-k)^2 / a^2 ] – [ (x-h)^2 / b^2 ] = 1

The conjugate axis of the vertical hyperbola is y = k

Length of the conjugate axis  = 2b

According to the question k = 2, h = -1, a = 4, b = 12

Length of the conjugate axis = 2b = 2 * 12  = 24
