Answer:

x = 2.5
y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

4x + y = 14
6x - 3y = 3

Let's first solve for y by choosing any equation.

4x + y = 14
=> y = 14 - 4x

Now, let's substitute the value of y into the second equation.

6x - 3y = 3
=> 6x - 3(14 - 4x) = 3
=> 6x - 42 + 12x = 3
=> 18x - 42 = 3
=> 18x = 42 + 3
=> 18x = 45
=> x = 45/18 = 5/2 = 2.5

Now, let's substitute the value of x into the equation of y.

=> 14 - 4x = y
=> 14 - 4(2.5) = y
=> 14 - 10 = y
=> y = 4

Hence, the value of x and y are 2.5 and 4 respectively.

The volume of a rectangular prism can be found by multiplying the base area, B, times the height. If the volume of the prism is

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

$Base (B) = /frac{15x² + 1 + 2}{x}$

Step-by-step Explanation:

==>Given:

Dimensions of a rectangular prism are expressed as follow:

Volume (V) = 15x² + x + 2

Height (h) = x²

==>Required:

Expression of the Base area (B)

==>Solution:

Volume (V) = Base (B) × Height (h)

15x² + x + 2 = B × x²

Divide both sides by x²

$\frac{15x² + x + 2}{x²} = B[tex]Base (B) = /frac{15x² + 1 + 2}{x}$

Whats the Area? how do i find it? In these specific questions?

just olya [345]

The formula for finding the area of a square is:
${s}^{2}$

The formula for finding the area of a triangle is:
$\frac{1}{2} bh$

So for the square the area would be:
${2x}^{2} \times {2x}^{2} = {4x}^{2}$

The area for the triangle would be:

$\frac{1}{2} {2c}^{3} \times 4c = {4c}^{2}$
