Answer:

C) The solution for the given system of equations are A(0,-5) and B(-4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equation are : $x^{2} + y^{2} = 25\\2x + y = -5$

from equation 2, we get y = -5 - 2x .

Put the above value of y in the equation (1).

We get: $x^{2} + y^{2} = 25 \implies x^{2} + (-5-2x)^{2} = 25$

By ALGEBRAIC IDENTITY:

$(a+b)^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} + 2ab\\ (-5-2x)^{2} = (-5)^{2} + (-2x)^{2} + 2(-5)(-2x)$

or, $x^{2} + (-5-2x)^{2} = 25 \implies x^{2} + (25 + 4x^{2} + 20x) = 25$

or, $5x^{2} + 20x = 0 \implies x(5x + 20) = 0$

⇒ x = 0 or, x = -20/5 = -4

So, the possible values for x are: x = 0 or x = -4

If x = 0, y = -5-2x = -5-2(0) = -5

and if x = -4, y = -5 -2(-4) = -5 + 8 = 3

Hence, the solution for the given system of equations are A(0,-5) and B(-4,3)

What is the slope and y-intercept of the line represented by 3x=15

Svetach [21]

Answer:

The slope is undefined and there is no y- intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is equivelent to x=5

This is a vertical line so the slope is undefined and there is no y- intercept

Angela makes a pillow in the shape of a wedge to use for watching TV. The pillow is filled with 121212 feet^3 3 start superscrip

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The question is incomplete, the complete question is Angela makes a pillow in the shape of a wedge to use for watching TV. The pillow is filled with 12 ft³ of fluffy material. The base is 3 ft, the height is 2 ft, what is the length of the pillow?

The length of the pillow is 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the volume of the wedge is $V=\frac{1}{2}bhl$ , where

b is the base of it
h is the height of it
l is the length of it

∵ The pillow in the shape of a wedge

∵ The pillow is filled with 12 ft³ of fluffy material

∴ The volume of the wedge = 12 ft³

∵ The base = 3 feet

∵ The height = 2 feet

- Use the formula of the volume above to find its length

∵ $V=\frac{1}{2}(2)(3)l$

∴ V = 3 l

∵ V = 12 ft³

- Equate 3 l by 12

∴ 3 l = 12

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ l = 4 feet

∴ The length of the pillow is 4 feet

What is the volume of a cone that has a radius of 4 cm and a height of 9 cm?

vodka [1.7K]

For any sort of pyramid or cone, the volume is 1/3 of the volume of a prism with the same base and height. Since the volume of a prism/cylinder is $V=Bh$ , the volume of a pyramid/cone is $V=\frac{1}3Bh$ .

In this case, our base is a circle, which has a radius of 4 cm.
The area of a circle is $A=\pi r^2$ where r is the radius.
$A=\pi (4)^2=\pi (4\times4)=16\pi=B$

We now know that our base is 16π cm.
We also know that our height is 9 cm.
Let's plug these into our volume formula.

$V=\frac{1}3\times16\pi \times9$

Use 3.14 to approximate pi as the question states. 16 × 3.14 = 50.24.

$V\approx\frac{1}3\times50.24\times9$

We could punch all of that into our calculator to get the same answer, but since 1/3 of 9 is clearly 3, let's just go with that.

$V\approx3\times50.24$

$\boxed{V\approx150.72\ cm^3}$
