Solve the system for x and y -3x+8y=103 -5x-8y=-255
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(x, y) = (19, 20)
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficients of y are opposites, so we can add the two equations to eliminate y.
(-3x +8y) +(-5x -8y) = (103) +(-255)
-8x = -152
x = 19 . . . . . . . divide by -8
Substituting into the first equation, we have ...
-3(19) +8y = 103
8y = 160
y = 20
The solution is (x, y) = (19, 20).

Step-by-step explanation:
Hey There!
So for the first one we are given the dimensions of a rectangular prism and they want us to find the volume
Remember to find the volume we use the equation
V = length x width x height
so we just plug in the values
v = 2.6 x 2.1 x 3.9 = 21.294
the closest is 20 so C is your answer
For the second one we are given a triangular prism
and they want us to find the volume
b = base (10.3)
l = length (4)
h = height (7)
7x4=28
28x10.3=288.4
then we divide by 2
288.4/2=144.2
so your selected answer is correct
