Answer:

She had 17 dims and 21 quarters to make $6.95.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Every evening Jenna empties her pockets and puts her change in a jar. At the end of the week she counts her money. One week she had 38 coins all of them dimes and quarters.

To find : When she added them up she had a total of $6.95?

Solution :

Let d be the dims and q be the quarters.

She had 38 coins.

i.e. d+q=38 ......(1)

The value of d is 0.10 and q is 0.25.

The total she had of $6.95

i.e. 0.10d+0.25q=6.95  .......(2)

Solving (1) and (2),

Substitute d from (1) into (2)

0.10(38-q)+0.25q=6.95

0.10\times 38-0.10q+0.25q=6.95

3.8+0.15q=6.95

0.15q=6.95-3.8

0.15q=3.15

q=\frac{3.15}{0.15}

q=21

Substitute in equation (1),

d+21=38

d=38-21

d=17

Therefore, She had 17 dims and 21 quarters to make $6.95.

d = dimes

q = quarters

d+q = 38 coins

q=38-d

0.25q + 0.10d=6.95

0.25(38-d)+0.10d=6.95

9.5-0.25d+0.10d=6.95

-015d=-2.55

d=-2.55/-0.15 = 17

q=38-17 =21

21*0.25 =5.25

17*0.10 = 1.70

5.25+1.70 = 6.95

 she had 21 quarters and 17 dimes

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dol
Licemer1 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

This is different than the minimum cost <em>per item</em>. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

the sum of three times one number, x, and five times a second number,y, is 77. if the sum of the two numbers is 19, find the two
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

x=9, y=10. (9, 10). The two numbers are 9 and 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=77

x+y=19

------------------

3x+5y=77

-3(x+y)=-3(19)

---------------------

3x+5y=77

-3x-3y=-57

-------------------

2y=20

y=20/2

y=10

x+10=19

x=19-10

x=9

Answer:

y+7 = -3 ( x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First find two points on the graph to find the slope

( 1,2) and ( 3,-4)

The slope is given by

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( -4-2)/(3-1)

    = -6/2

    =-3

We can use the point slope form

y - y1 = m(x-x1)  where m is the slope and x1,y1 is a point on the line

We have two choices with a slope of -3

We can either use and x coordinate of -2 or 4

for  -2, the y coordinate is not shown

for 4 , the y coordinate is -7

Using ( 4, -7) and m = -3

y--7 = -3( x- 4)

y+7 = -3 ( x-4)
