Find the solution to the system of linear equations.

Answer:

     x = -1          y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the coefficients of x are opposites of each other.  That makes the problem so much easier to solve.  All you have  to do is add the two equations and the x terms will be eliminated.

2x - 4y = -10

<u>-2x - y = 0</u>

    - 5y = -10

        y = 2        Substitute y = 2 into the first equation.  2x - 4(2) = -10

                                                                                          2x - 8 = -10

                                                                                               2x = -2

                                                                                                 x = -1

It is always a good idea to check your results into the equations to see if they satisfy the equations.

If U=pi(r+h),find r when U=16 1/2 and h=2<br> solve this question by take the value of pi 22/7
I am Lyosha [343]
U=\pi (r+h) \\\\ 16 \frac{1}{2}= \frac{22}{7}\cdot (r+2) \\\\ \frac{33}{2} : \frac{22}{7}=r+2 \\\\ \frac{\not 33}{2}\cdot \frac{7}{\not 22}=r+2 \\\\ \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{7}{2}=r+2 \\\\ \frac{21}{4}=r^{(4}+2^{(4} \\\\ 21=4r+8 \\\\ 4r=21-8 \\\\ 4r=13 \\\\ \boxed{r=\frac{13}{4}}
