Given:

The change all in nickels and pennies.

Let the number of nickels = x

Let the number of pennies = y

Total coins = 31

so, x + y = 31

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 penny = 1 cent

The change = $0.87 = 87 cents

so, 5x + y = 87

so, we have the following system of equations:

\begin{gathered} x+y=31\rightarrow(1)\times-1 \\ 5x+y=87\rightarrow(2) \\ ------------- \\ (5x-x)+(y-y)=87-31 \\  \\ 4x=56 \\  \\ x=\frac{56}{4}=14 \\  \\ y=31-14=17 \end{gathered}

So, the number of nickels = x = 14

And the number of pennies = y = 17

Find the mode and median of the data. A. mode = 41 median = 72 B. mode = 72 median = 94 C. mode = 94 median = 94 D. mode = 94 me
SashulF [63]
Mode means the number that apperss the most
median is the number in the middle when you arrange them in numerical order


ok so
you take the unbers fom the left most collumn and pair it with each number in the right side of the line, the left collumn is the tens place and the right hand side is the ones

so the th enumbers are

32,41,41,50,56,57,62,70,70,72,72,72,73,74,91,92,94,94,94,94


mode=most common number
94 appears 4 times which is most
mode=94

median is number in very middle number
20 terms
72 is in middle


mode=94
72=median

A cylinder has a radius of 5x + 4 and a height of 2x + 5. Which polynomial in standard form best describes the total volume of t
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = pi·(r^2)*h

r = radius = (5x+4)

h = height = (2x+5)

 

Volume = pi·(r^2)

Volume = pi·(5x+4)^2*(2x+8)

Volume = pi·(25x^2+40x+16)*(2x+8)

Volume = pi·(50x^2+80x+32+200x^2+32x+128)

Volume = pi·(250x^2+112x+160)
