Answer:

<em>The student completed 13 courses worth 3 credits</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>System of Equations</u>

Let's assign the following variables:

x = number of courses worth 3 credits

y = number of courses worth 4 credits

Some student completed 18 courses thus:

x + y = 18      [1]

The student earned a total of 59 credits:

3x + 4y = 59       [2]

From [1]:

y = 18 - x

Substituting in [2]:

3x + 4(18 - x) = 59

Operating:

3x + 72 - 4x = 59

Simplifying:

-x = 59 - 72 = -13

x = 13

The student completed 13 courses worth 3 credits

Help me i got 10 math question plz help 1st one
NISA [10]
1. a 

2. 6 tps baking powder. For every 3, there is two. 3 multiplied by 2 is 6.

3. 12/8 = 1.5 seedling per minute in 70 minutes...
1.5 * 70 = 105 seedlings can be planted in 70 minutes

4. idk sorry

5. time = distance / speed
time = 300/15
time = 20 hrs


7. The ratio between 12 and 8 is 1.5, so you need to divide every other number by 1.5.
2/1.5=1.3

9/1.5=6

18/1.5=12

8. So, problem statement tells you that 1lb = 16oz and that 1oz = 28.3g. That means that 1lb = 16 * 28.3g = 452.8g

You have three items, convert their weights to grams:
1) 800g
2) 1.6lb = 1.6 * 452.8g = 724.48g
3) 30oz = 30 * 28.3g = 849g

So, sorting from greatest:
3, 2, 1, or: 30oz, 1.6lb, 800g.

9. 5•7=30

10.it will clean 7 cars in 56 minutes
hope this helps and i hope its not confusing

Find the Volume of the cone​
Karolina [17]

Answer:

<h2>1005.12</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>first</u><u> </u><u>we </u><u>need</u><u> to</u><u> </u><u>know</u><u> that</u><u> </u><u>r</u><u>edious</u><u> </u><u>isn't</u><u> </u><u>gien</u>

so we have to find redious

according to Pythagoras theorem

a²+b²=c²

a=√c²-b²

a=17²-15²

a=√(17+15)(17-15)

a=√64

a=8

as \: we \: khow \: volume \: of \: a \: cone

=  \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2} h

\frac{1}{3} \pi \times  {8}^{2}  \times 15

\frac{\pi}{3}  \times 64 \times 15

\pi \times 64 \times 5

3.141 \times 64 \times 5
