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.

HELP PLZ! I do not understand this!!
neonofarm [45]
PART 1
If I have graph f(x) then graph f(x + 1/3) would translate the graph 1/3 to the left.

For example, I have f(x) = x².Then
f(x + 1/3) = (x + 1/3)²

I draw the graph of f(x) = x² and the graph of f(x) =  (x + 1/3)² on cartesian plane to know what's the difference between them.


PART 2
If I have graph f(x) then graph f(x) + 1/3 would translate the graph 1/3 upper.

For example, I have f(x) = x².Then 
f(x) + 1/3 = x² + 1/3

I draw the graph of f(x) = x² and the graph of f(x) = x² + 1/3 on cartesian plane to know what's the difference between them.


SUMMARY
f(x+1/3) ⇒⇒ <span>f(x) is translated 1/3 units left.
f(x) + 1/3 </span>⇒⇒ <span>f(x) is translated 1/3 units up.</span>

Answer:

The answer to your question is  x = 0 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

                       \frac{x}{x - 2} + \frac{x - 1}{x + 1} = -1

1)

                      \frac{x(x + 1) + (x - 2)(x - 1)}{(x - 2)(x + 1)} = - 1

Expand

2)                  x² + x + x² - x - 2x + 2 = -1(x - 2)(x + 1)

Simplify

3)                  2x² -2x + 2 = -1(x² + x - 2x - 2)

4)                  2x² - 2x + 2 = -x² + x + 2

Equal to zero

5)                  2x² - 2x + 2 + x² - x - 2 = 0

6)                  3x² - 3x = 0

Factor

7)                  3x(x - 1) = 0

8)                  3x₁ = 0                   x₂ - 1 = 0

9)                    x₁ = 0/3                x₂ = 1

10)                  x₁ = 0                    x₂ = 1

Simplify the expression
erastova [34]

Answer : A

We need to simplify the given expression

Lets factor numerator first

2x^2-5x-3 =(2x+1)(x-3)

x^2+8x+15 =(x+5)(x+3)

Now we factor the denominator

x^2+x-20 =(x+5)(x-4)

2x^2+9x+4 =(2x+1)(x-4)

Now we simplify it

\frac{(2x+1)(x-3)}{(x+5)(x-4)} * \frac{(x+5)(x+3)}{(2x+1)(x-4)}

Now cancel out same factors. so we left with

\frac{(x+3)(x-3)}{(x+4)(x-4)} }

Now multiply the factors

\frac{x^2-9}{x^2-16} }

As part of his math assignment, Santos has to estimate the height
ycow [4]

Answer:

105.46 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We know all three angles (60, 90, and 30), as well as one side, which is adjacent to the 60 degrees. We want to find the side opposite to the 60 degree angle. To do this, we can use tangent, utilizing both opposite and adjacent.

Using tan, we can say that tan(60) = x/58, with x representing the height of the lighthouse (minus 5, because Santos is 5 feet tall and he is measuring the angle from the top of his head). Multiplying both sides by 58, we can get that 58 *tan(60) = x = 100.46. Add 5 to that to get 105.46 feet as your answer.
