−9x+y= \,\,71 71 -x-y= −x−y= \,\,-1 −1 \mathbf{Add}\text{ to eliminate }\mathbf{y.}Add to eliminate y. \mathbf{Subtract}\text{ to eliminate }\mathbf{x.}Subtract to eliminate x. \mathbf{Subtract}\text{ to eliminate }\mathbf{y.}Subtract to eliminate y. \mathbf{Add}\text{ to eliminate }\mathbf{x.}Add to eliminate x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

-9x + y =  71 1

-x - y = -1 2

Using elimination method we can eliminate y first since they have the same coefficient.

To do that we will need to add up both equations. We are adding because the coefficient of y in both equations has different signs. If they have the same sign, we would have subtracted.

Hence the correct option in this case is to add to eliminate y.

18.8 cubic inches.

step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cone = πr²h

r = 1.5 inches

h = 8 inches

pi = 3.14

volume of our cone = × 3.14 × 1.5² × 8 = 18.84 square inches

or equals to 18.8 square inches rounded up to nearest tenth.
