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

Mathematics

Hunter-Best [27]2 years ago

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.

Justin Verlander of the Astros threw a pitch 100 miles per hour. How many seconds did it take to get to home plate. The plate is
castortr0y [4]

It will take 0.4 seconds to get to the home plate.

Given:

The speed of the pitch thrown by Justin is 100 miles per hour

The distance of home plate from the pitching rubber is 60.5 feet

To find:

The time taken by a pitch to reach the home plate

Solution:

The distance home plate from the pitching rubber = d = 60.5 feet

1 mile = 5280 feet\\1 foot=\frac{1}{5280} mile\\60.5 feet=60.5 \times \frac{1}{5280} mile=\frac{60.5}{5280}miles

The speed of pitch thrown by Justin = s = 100 miles/hr

The time taken by a pitch to reach the home plate = t =?

The speed of the moving object is given by dividing the distance covered from the time taken to cover that distance.

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\s=\frac{d}{t}\\100 miles/hr=\frac{\frac{60.5}{5280}miles}{t}\\t=\frac{60.5}{5280}miles\times \frac{1}{100 miles/hr}\\= 0.000114583 hr

In an hour there are 3600 seconds, then in 0.000114583 hours will be:

1 hour=3600 seconds\\=0.000114583 \times 3600=0.4124988 s\approx 0.4 s

It will take 0.4 seconds to get to the home plate.

  • 70 necklaces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of necklaces Rosaria ordered. Then the total cost of the order is ...

  10(120 -n) +11(n) = 1270

  n = 70 . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 1200

  120 -70 = 50 . . . . . . . the number of bracelets

Rosaria purchased 70 necklaces and 50 bracelets.
