<span>Let n = the number of nickles
Let q = the number of quarters
Then for your problem we have
(1) n + q = 43 and
(2) 5*n + 25*q = 100*6.95 (always work in cents to avoid decimal numbers) or
(3) 5*n + 25*q = 695
Now substitute n of (1) into (3) and get
(4) 5*(43 - q) + 25*q = 695 or
(5) 215 - 5*q + 25*q = 695 or
(6) 20*q = 695 - 215 or

(7) 20*q = 480 or
(8) q = 24
Then using (1) we get
(9) n + 24 = 43 or
(10) n = 19
Let's check these values.
Is (.05*19 + .25*24 = 6.95)?
Is (.95 + 6.00 = 6.95)?
Is (6.95 = 6.95)? Yes
Answer: Kevin and Randy have 19 nickles and 24 quarters in the jar.</span>

Answer:

2x² + 3x + 4 + (17x + 9) / (x² − 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by setting up the division.  Make sure to write all the coefficients, even the zero ones.

x² + 0x − 4 | 2x⁴ + 3x³ − 4x² + 5x − 7

Start by dividing the first term of the dividend (2x⁴) by the first term of the divisor (x²).  That's 2x²; it'll be the first term in quotient.  Multiply the divisor by 2x²:

2x⁴ + 0x³ − 8x²

Subtract that from the first three terms of the dividend:

3x³ + 4x²

Drop down the next term from the dividend, and start the process all over again.

3x³ + 4x² + 5x

When you finish, the quotient will be 2x² + 3x + 4, and the remainder will be 17x + 9.

from 2002 to 2012, the number of a particular make of cars sold at a dealership yearly declined to 500. The number is expected t
Alinara [238K]
To determine the number of cars that will be sold by the year 2020, we will use the equation,

     N = (N1)(1 - r)^(t)

where N1 is the starting number of cars, r is the rate of the decrease, and t is the number of years from 2012. Substituting the konwn values,

   N = (500)(1 - 0.028)^(8)
    N = 398.38

The closest integer to the calculated value is 398. Thus, the answer is 398 cars.

Please help with this question!!
barxatty [35]

Answer:

  -29/20

Step-by-step explanation:

The cosecant function is the inverse of the sine function. Both sine and cosecant are odd functions, meaning csc(-x) = -csc(x) = -1/sin(x).

  csc(-θ) = -1/sin(θ) = -1/(20/29) = -29/20

Three oblique pyramids have the same regular square base. Which one has a volume of 15 cubic units if the area of the bases are
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The one which has a height of 3 units. H=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the volume of pyramid is equal to the area of base multiply by the height of pyramid and divide by 3. Writing as a formula it can be expressed as V=(A*H)/3 where V is volume of pyramid, A is area of base and H is the height of pyramid. If V=15 cubic units and A=15 square units, H should be equal to 3 (to be cancelled out by 3. Please look at formula above) in order to make V=15.
