Dylan has a bank that sorts coins as they are dropped into it. A panel on the front displays the total number of coins inside as

well as the total value of these coins. The panel shows 90 coins with a value of $17.55 inside of the bank.
If Dylan only collects dimes and quarters, write a system of equations in two variables or an equation in one variable that could be used to model this situation.

Answer:

1). System of equations- D + Q = 90 and D + 2.5Q = 175.50

2). There are 33 dimes and 57 quarters in the bank.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dylan has a bank that sorts coins as they are dropped in it.

A panel shows the total number of coins inside as well as the total value of these coins.

Let the number of dimes in the bank = D

and the number of quarters in the bank = Q

If the panel shows total number of coins = 90

Then the equation will be

D + Q = 90 -------(1)

And the panel displays the amount of the coins = $17.55

Then equation will be

0.10D + 0.25Q = 17.55 [1 Dime = $0.10 and 1 quarter = $0.25]

D + 2.5Q = 175.50 ------------(2)

Now we subtract equation (1) form equation (2)

D + 2.5Q - (D + Q) = 175.50 - 90

D + 2.5Q - D - Q = 85.5

1.5Q = 85.5

Q = \frac{85.5}{1.5}

   = 57

By putting Q = 57 in the equation (1)

D + 57 = 90

D = 90 - 57 = 33

Therefore, there are 33 dimes and 57 quarters in the bank.

At the beach, Pancho and his sister both built sandcastles and then measured their heights. Pancho's sandcastle was 3/5 of a foo
lord [1]

1/5 of a foot

Simply subtract the height of Pancho’s sandcastle (3/5 of a foot) minus the height of his sister’s sandcastle (2/5 of a foot) to find a difference of 1/5 of a foot, meaning Pancho’s sandcastle was 1/5 of a foot taller than his sister’s sandcastle.

Use function notation to write a recursive formula to represent the sequence: 3, 6, 9, …
dlinn [17]

Answer:

f(n) = f(n - 1) + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute $ n = 1, 2, 3,.. $ to get the recursive formula.

OPTION 1: f(n) = f(n - 1) + 3

Substituting n = 1.

f(1) = f(1 - 1) + 3 = 0 + 3 = 3.

Substituting n = 2.

f(2) = f(2 - 1) + 3 = f(1) + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6.

Substituting n = 3.

f(3) = f(3 - 1) + 3 = f(2) + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9.

The numbers match the given sequence. So, we say the above recursive formula represents the sequence.

OPTION 2: f(n) = f(n - 1) + 2

Substituting n = 1

f(1) = f(0) +  2 $ \ne $ 3.

So, this is eliminated.

Similarly, OPTION 3 and OPTION 4 can be eliminated as well.

What is the sales tax rate?
Allisa [31]
Hello there! We are solving for the tax rate, so let's start off by subtracting both prices. 4.32 - 4.00 is 0.32. That's a 32 cent difference in the price. Now, let's divide that number by the original price to find the percentage. 0.32/4 is 0.08. Multiply that number by 100 and that is 8%. There. The sales tax rate is 8%.
