Currency such as dollars can come in various forms such as dimes, quarters, pennies, and nickels.

The number of quarter coins is 12 and the number of dollar coins is 14 coins.

Let's represent:

The number of 1 dollar coin = d

The number of 1 quarter coin = q

The twenty-six coins in my pocket are all dollar coins and quarters. The algebraic equation for this statement above is =

d + q = 26 ........ Equation 1

Making d the subject of the formula

d = 26 - q

1 dollar coin = $1

1 quarter = $0.25

The value of the dollar and nickel coins is seventeen dollars. The algebraic expression for this statement is :

$1 x d + $0.25 x q = 17

d + 0.25q = 17.................Equation 2

Substitute 26 - q for d in Equation 2

26 - q + 0.25q = 17

Collecting like terms

26 - 17 = q - 0.25q

9 = 0.75q

Divide both sides by 0.75

9/0.75 = 0.75q/0.75

q = 12 coins

Solving for number of dollar coins

d = 26 - q

q = 12

d = 26 - 12

d = 14 coins

Therefore, the number of quarter coins is 12 and the number of dollar coins is 14 coins.

The tax on a property with an assessed value of $90,000 is $1,200. What is the assessed value of a property if the tax is $2,200
Ivanshal [37]
I'm not 100% sure but this is how I would try.
If you don't get a better answer, check this w/your teacher.

x/100 *90,000 = 1200

90,000x = 120,000

x = 1.3% tax percentage

1.3/100x = 2200

1.3x = 220,000

x = $169,230.77 assessed value

The exponential functions change is represented by decay and the percentage rate of decrease is 1.00619%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To determine if the function represents growth or decay, we substitute values to x.

If the values increase with an increase of x, it represents growth.

If the values decrease with an increase of x, it represents decay.

Step 2:

If x= 10, y = 1,300 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{10}{69} }  =  1,300 (0.9044) = 1,175.72.

If x=11,y = 1,300 (\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{11}{69} }  =  1,300 (0.8953) = 1,163.89.

So as x increases the value of y decreases, so it represents decay.

Step 3:

The percentage rate of change is determined by dividing the difference of two consecutive values by the first value.

The percentage rate of change = \frac{y(x=11) - y(x=10)}{y(x=10)}.

Substituting the values, we get

The percentage rate of change =\frac{1,175.72-1,163.89}{1,175.72}(100) = 1.00619\%.

As the values of y decrease with an increase in x, it is the percent decrease per unit.

Vanyuwa [196]
P-value approach is used to take a decision to reject or accept the null hypothesis as indicated below:
<span>REJECT the hypothesis, if p-value </span><span>FAIL TO REJECT the hypothesis, if p-value > the alpha value.
</span><span>Alpha value represents the level of significance </span>
<span>If alpha value is NOT indicated: alpha = 0.05 can be assumed </span>

<span>REJECT the hypothesis, because p-value (0.036) < the alpha value assumed which is 0.05</span>

A line passes through the point (-6, -8) and has a slope of 3/2
garri49 [273]

Answer:

y=3/2(x) -1, or y = 1.5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, you have to determine the y-intercept for the line. Since you have the slope and at least one ordered pair, you can find this by substituting the points and slope into this formula:

y=mx+b.

For this particular line, you would write:

-8 = 3/2(-6)+b

-8 = -18/2 + b

-8 = -9 + b

add 9 to both sides to isolate the b

-1 = b.

Now that you have the answer for b (-1), you can write the equation as:

y=3/2(x) -1
