<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>

On the unit circle, which of the following angles has the terminal point coordinates (√2/2,-√2/2)
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit circle means radius of the circle = 1 unit

Let a terminal point on the circle is (x, y) and angle between the point P and x-axis is θ.

Center of the circle is origin (0, 0).

Therefore, ordered pair representing the terminal point will be (OP×Cosθ, OP×Sinθ) = (\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2},-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2})

OP.Cosθ = 1×Cosθ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

Cosθ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

θ = \frac{\pi }{4}+2\pi n,  \frac{7\pi }{4}+2\pi n where n = integers

Similarly, OP×Sinθ = 1×Sinθ = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

Sinθ = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }

θ = \frac{5\pi }{4}+2\pi n,  \frac{7\pi }{4}+2\pi n where n = integer

Common value of θ will be, θ = \frac{7\pi }{4}

Option B will be the answer.

Three times the sum of a number and seven is negative thirty-six. What is the number?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

n =-19

Step-by-step explanation:

3* (n+7) = -36

Distribute

3n+21 = -36

Subtract 21 from each side

3n+21-21 = -36-21

3n = -57

Divide by 3

3n/3 = -57/3

n =-19
