Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -5/8 and y = -7/4

so

x = -0.625 and y = -2.25

Answer:

x = -0.625

y = - 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x - 1/2  ------------(I)

2x - 3y = 4   ---------(II)

Substitute y =2x - 1/2 in (II)

2x - 3*(2x -  \dfrac{1}{2})=4\\\\\\2x - 6x +  \dfrac{3}{2}=4\\\\-4x =  4-\dfrac{3}{2} =  \dfrac{8}{4}- \dfrac{3}{2}\\\\-4x =  \dfrac{5}{2}\\\\x = \dfrac{5}{2}* \dfrac{1}{-4}\\\\x=  \dfrac{-5}{8}\\\\x= -0.625

Plugin x = -0.625 in equation (I)

y = 2*(-0.625) - 0.5\\\\y = -1.25 - 0.5\\\\y = -1.75

100 points!! Brainliest if correct!!
Elena-2011 [213]

surface area (S) of a right rectangular solid is:

S = 2*L*W + 2*L*H + 2*W*H (equation 1)

where:

L = length

W = width

H = height

-----

you have:

L = 7

W = a

H = 4

-----

formula becomes:

S = 2*7*a + 2*7*4 + 2*a*4

simplify:

S = 14*a + 56 + 8*a

combine like terms:

S = 22*a + 56

-----

answer is:

S = 22*a + 56 (equation 2)

-----

to prove, substitute any value for a in equation 2:

let a = 15

S = 22*a + 56 (equation 2)

S = 22*15 + 56

S = 330 + 56

S = 386

-----

since a = 15, then W = 15 because W = a

go back to equation 1 and substitute 15 for W:

S = 2*L*W + 2*L*H + 2*W*H (equation 1)

where:

L = length

W = width

H = height

-----

you have:

L = 7

W = 15

H = 4

-----

equation 1 becomes:

S = 2*7*15 + 2*7*4 + 2*15*4

perform indicated operations:

S = 210 + 56 + 120

S = 386

-----

surface area is the same using both equations so:

equations are good.

formula for surface area of right rectangle in terms of a is:

S = 22*a + 56

-----

There are 3 red balls, 5 green balls, and 1 yellow ball in a hat. If you draw the yellow ball, you gain $10. If you draw any of
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

19.44

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information:

3 red balls, 5 green balls, and 1 yellow ball

In total there are 3 + 5 + 1 = 9 balls.

We calculate the probability of each:

Network: 3/9

Green: 5/9

Yellow: 1/9

Each one corresponds a price in profit or losses:

Network: 4

Green: -3

Yellow: 10

So in total it would be the sum of the multiplication of the probability and the price and then multiply everything by 25:

(4 * 3/9 + -3 * 5/9 + 10 * 1/9) * 25 = (0.777) * 25

= 19.44

A circle has an area of 1.3 mi2. If a sector of the circle has an area of 0.7 mi2, what is the measure of the central angle in r
OleMash [197]

Answer:

area of circle=πr²=1.3mi²

we have

area of sector=∅/360×πr²

0.7mi²×360=∅1.3

∅=0.7×360/1.3=193.846°×π/180=387.7 radian
