Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y = - 1 -------------(I)

-5x - 2y = -4 -----------(II)

Multiply the equation (I) by 2 and then add the equations.

(I)*2 8x + 2y = -2

(II) -5x - 2y = -4 {Now add and y will be eliminated}

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 in equation (I)

4*(-2) + y = -1

-8 + y = -1

y = - 1 + 8

y = 7

Answer:

(-2, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + y = -1

-5x - 2y = -4

---------------------------------------

2(4x + y = -1) = 8x + 2y = -2

---------------------------------------

8x + 2y = -2

-5x - 2y = -4

3x = -6

÷3 ÷3

x = -2

-----------------------------------------

4(-2) + y = -1

-8 + y = -1

+8 +8

y = 7

I hope this helps!

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!

Answer:

The radius of a sphere is 2 millimeters

The surface area of a sphere is 50.24 square millimeters.

The circumference of the great circle of a sphere is 12.56 millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify each statement

case A) The radius of a sphere is 8 millimeters

The statement is false

we know that

The volume of the sphere is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

we have

$V=100.48/3\ mm^{3}$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute and solve for r

$100.48/3=\frac{4}{3}(3.14)r^{3}$

$r^{3}=(100.48)/(4*3.14)$

$r=2\ mm$

case B) The radius of a sphere is 2 millimeters

The statement is True

(see the case A)

case C) The circumference of the great circle of a sphere is 9.42 square millimeters

The statement is false

The units of the circumference is millimeters not square millimeters

The circumference is equal to

$C=2\pi r$

we have

$r=2\ mm$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$C=2(3.14)(2)$

$C=12.56\ mm$

case D) The surface area of a sphere is 50.24 square millimeters.

The statement is True

Because

The surface area of the sphere is equal to

$SA=4\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=2\ mm$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$SA=4(3.14)(2)^{2}$

$SA=50.24\ mm^{2}$

case E) The circumference of the great circle of a sphere is 12.56 millimeters.

The statement is true

see the case C

case F) The surface area of a sphere is 25.12 square millimeters

The statement is false

because the surface area of the sphere is $SA=50.24\ mm^{2}$

see the case D

It takes you 0.8 of a minute to read each page of your health book. it takes you 5.5 minutes to take the test at the end. how lo

o-na [289]

Answer: 10.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Time taken to read each page of health book = 0.8 minutes

Time taken to take the test at the end = 5.5 minutes

Let x be the number of pages of book to read, then time taken to read pages and take the test is given by :-

$T(x)=0.8x+5.5$

If we read 6.25 pages, then time taken to read 6.25 pages and take the test is given by :-

$T(6.25)=0.8(6.25)+5.5=5+5.5=10.5\ minutes$
