Well obviously quarters equal 25 cents.  So you have to divide the 8.85 by 25 first.  That means he could have 35 quarters.  That least the rest as being dimes.  So find the remaining amount of the 8.85.  If you have 35 quarters that's $8.75.  And 8.85 minus 8.75 is 10 cents.  which would be 2 nickels.  That only adds up 37 coins.  So you break down one of the 25.  That would mean 5 more coins could be nickels.  Add 37 and 5 to get 42.   Do it again.  25 cents in nickels would be 5 more coins.  would be 46.  that would be missing 2 coins. But don't forget you're also subtracting from the 35 quarters. Now you would technically have 12 nickels and 33 quarters.  So you can do it one more time.  32 quarters means there is $8 in quarters at this point.

Now add you have 12 nickels, and you made 5 more.  That's 17 nickels.  That equals 85 cents.  So add 17 and 32 to be sure you have 49 coins, which you do. 


So 17 nickels, 32 quarters to equal 49 coins and $8.85

(sorry some of it got mixed up above because I was forgetting to subtract the quarters from the total as I changed them to nickels, so pay attention to the end)

How would you write 2x^2-7=11 in both quadratic property and square root property?
dangina [55]

Answer:

Quadratic Property 2x^2-18=0

Square Root Property x=√9 or x=+3 or x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Property or a quadratic Function is of the form ax^2+bx+c=0. So our task is to equate the given expression to zero. We can equate the expression to zero by subtracting 11 on both the sides. In doing so, we get 2x^2-18=0. This is the quadratic Property of the given Expression.

Square property is finding the value for x. we have make x equal to some value. Since we already have the quadratic Property as 2x^2-18=0, we can use this to find the value of x.

so, 2x^2=18

or x^2=18/2=9

or x=√9= +3 or -3.

What is the value in 4s in 14,423
Savatey [412]

In the number 14,423, the digit '4' comes up twice, in the thousand and hundred position.

The farther to the left a digit is, the higher that number is compared to another digit to the right of it.

This is why 1,000 is higher than 999.

In the number 14,423, there are two values for four: thousand (four thousand) and hundred (four hundred)
