Alex has 84 quarters and nickels worth a total of $17.80.

Mathematics

The equation which can be used to find the number of quarters and nickels is; n + q = 84, 0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80.

<h3>Quarters and nickels</h3>

  • Total coins = 84
  • Total value = $17.80

let

  • Number of quarters = q
  • Number of nickels = n

n + q = 84

0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80

From equation (1)

n = 84 - q

Substitute into (2)

0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80

0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80

4.2 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80

- 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80 - 4.2

0.20q = 13.60

q = 13.60 / 0.20

q = 68

Substitute q = 68 into

n + q = 84

n + 68 = 84

n = 84 - 68

n = 16

Therefore, the number of quarters and nickels are 68 and 16 respectively.

A researcher is interested in determining if the more than two thirds of students would support making the Tuesday before Thanks
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is, {H₀}: p = 0.66, H₀: p = 0.66 .

The alternative hypothesis is, {Hₐ}: p > 0.66, Hₐ​: p > 0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the proportion of students who are supportive of making the day before Thanksgiving a holiday.

Since two populations are considered, the alternative hypothesis for the difference of the means of the two populations has to be stated.

The proportion of two-third students are supportive of making the day before Thanksgiving a holiday is p = 0.66 obtained as shown below:

The null hypothesis is,

{H₀}:p = 0.66, H₀​: p = 0.66

The alternative hypothesis is,

{Hₐ:p > 0.66, Ha​: p > 0.66

The null hypothesis is, {H₀}: p = 0.66, H₀: p=0.66 .

The alternative hypothesis is, {Hₐ}: p > 0.66, Hₐ​: p > 0.66

The drama club is having a car wash as a fundraiser. They wash x cars at $5 each
Galina-37 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

5x + 8y ≥ 250 (see below)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write an equation to represent the total cost to wash cars:

$5x = cost for cars

Then, write another for trucks:

$8y = cost for trucks

If the question is saying that they will wash at least 26 cars and 15 trucks, that means they could wash more. This means that we'll need an inequality:

This inequality represents that the total number of cars and trucks they wash will be at least—which means that it is equal to or greater than—than the amount given:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

Any equation or inequality with two unknowns is not solvable, meaning we need a system of equations:

If they make at least $250, that means that we need to combine the costs of the cars and trucks to make an inequality:

5x + 8y ≥ 250

Now you have your system of equations:

x + y ≥ 26 + 15

5x + 8y ≥ 250
