Solve the system of equations by substitution. 3/8x + 1/3y = 17/24 x + 7y = 8

1 answer:

3 0

Using the second equation, let’s find x

x + 7y = 8
x = 8 - 7y

Substitute x in the other equation

3/8(8 - 7y) + 1/3y = 17/24
3 - 21/8y + 1/3y = 17/24
-55/24y = -55/24
y = 1

Plug in y in any equation

x + 7(1) = 8
x + 7 = 8
x = 1

x = 1 and y = 1

Find the radius of the sphere with the given volume volume= 9/16 (pie symbol)ft cubed

xz_007 [3.2K]

Remember, the volume formula of a sphere is $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$ .

Set that equation equal to whatever volume they give you and solve for r.

$\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$ = $\frac{9}{16} \pi$

Now solve for r! I know you can do this. If you need help, just comment.
