<u>ANSWER: </u>

Zach has 28 dimes and 7 quarters.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, Zach has 4 times as many dimes as quarters  

And they have a combined value of 455 cents,  

We need to find how many of each coins does he have?

Let, the number of dimes be x and number of quarters be y.

Then, x = 4y → (1)

Total combined value = 455 cents

x(value of one dime) + y(value of one quarter) = 455 cents

x(10 cents) + x(25 cents) = 455 cents

10x + 25y = 455 → (2)

Now, substitute (1) in (2)

10(4y) + 25y = 455

40x + 25y = 455

65y = 455

y = 7

substitute y value in (1)

x = 4(7)  = 28

Hence, zach has 28 dimes and 7 quarters.

frutty [35]

Answer:

y = 0.00587x +1986.406

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the population of a city increased steadily over a ten-year span. The following ordered pairs show the population x and the year y over the ten-year span in the form (x, y) for specific recorded years.

x y

 

2500 2001

2650 2002

3000 2004

3500 2007

4200 2011

 

 

Slope 0.005865485

Intercept 1986.406413

So regression line is

y = 0.00587x +1986.406

When population = 15000

0.00587(17000)+1986.406\\=2074.389

Solve for x.<br> A. 3<br> B. 10<br> C. 6<br> D. 1
AURORKA [14]

The values of x is 1 and 6.

According to the statement

we have two tangents which are represented by x+5 and x+1 then

we have to find the value of x to get the perfect value of tangent

so, due to interior values of tangent they are equal to each other but in opposite sign.

But here we have to find the value of x one by one.

It means

Here we take interior value of tangent and exterior value of tangent equal to each other

So, the equations become are written below

X+5= 6 then x = 1

X+1= 7 then x = 6

So, The values of x is 1 and 6.
