Answer:  Sally gave 13 quarters to her brother.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Sally gave her brother $3.95 in quarters and dimes and the number of quarters is 6 more than the number of dimes.

We are to find the number of quarters that Sally gave her brother.

Let, 'x' and 'y' represents the number of quarters and dimes that Sally gave her brother.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x=y+6~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{1}{10}y=3.95\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5x+2y}{20}=3.95\\\\\\\Rightarrow 5x+2y=79~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Substituting the value of 'x' from equation (i) in equation (II), we get

5(y+6)+2y=79\\\\\Rightarrow 5y+30+2y=79\\\\\Rightarrow 7y=79\\\\\Rightarrow y=7.

From equation (i), we get

x=y+6=7+6=13.

Thus, Sally gave 13 quarters to her brother.

11.<br>The domain of f(x) is [4, 5, 6]. If f(x) = 3x + 2, what is the range?​
grigory [225]

Answer:

The range of the function is:

Range R = {14, 17, 20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

f(x) = 3x + 2

We also know that range is the set of values of the dependent variable for which a function is defined.  

In other words,  

  • Range refers to all the possible sets of output values on the y-axis.

We are given that the domain of the function is:

Domain D = {4, 5, 6}

Now,

substituting x = 4 in the function

f(4) = 3(4) + 2

f(4) = 12 + 2

f(4) = 14

substituting x = 5 in the function

f(5) = 3(5) + 2

f(5) = 15 + 2

f(5) = 17

substituting x = 6 in the function

f(6) = 3(6) + 2

f(6) = 18 + 2

f(6) = 20

Thus, we conclude that:

at x = 4, y = 14

at x = 5, y = 17

at x = 6, y = 20

Thus, the range of the function is:

Range R = {14, 17, 20}

Find the equation of the line that passes through (1, -1) and is parallel to
daser333 [38]

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above

2x+y-3=0\implies y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-2} x+3 \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line with a slope of -2 and that passes through (1 , -1)

(\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{-2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{1}) \\\\\\ y+1=-2x+2\implies y=-2x+1
