Answer:

<em>The values are a=6, b=8</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The following system of equations

ax - by = 4

bx - ay = 10

Has the solution x=2, y=1. Substituting:

2a - b = 4      [1]

2b - a = 10      [2]

Multiply [1] by 2:

4a - 2b = 8

Add with [2]:

3a = 18

a = 18/3 = 6

a = 6

From [1]:

2*6 - b = 4

b = 12 - 4

b = 8

The values are a=6, b=8

A dartboard has a diameter of 18 inches.What are its radius and circumference?
allsm [11]
Diameter of the dartboard as given in the question = 18 inches
Then
Radius of the dartboard will be = 18/2 inches
                                                  = 9 inches
We already know that
Circumference of a circle = <span>2π</span>r
We also know that the value of <span>π = 3.14159
Then
Circumference of the dartboard = 2 * 3.14159 * 9 inches
                                                    = 56.548 inches
                                                    = 56.55 inches
So the radius of the dartboard is 9 inches and the circumference of the dartboard is 56.55 inches. I hope the procedure is absolutely clear to you.

The price of a math book is $50 but you only have $35 with you. If you get a discount of 20% how much money do you need to borro
geniusboy [140]
$5 because you do 50 times 20% (get 10) subtract 10 from 50 (50-10). You’d get $40! You have $35 so therefore, $40-$35=$5!
