I imagine the part you left out was "how many of each coin did she have?".  I'm going with that.  The thing is you have to relate the NUMBER of coins to each other, which is very different from the VALUE of the coins.  I could have 1 single quarter, but it's worth 25 cents.  Number vs. value.  If she had 38 coins made up of dimes and quarters, then d + q = 38.  That's the number of dimes and quarters, both still unknown.  A dime is worth .10 and a quarter is .25.  Therefore, .10d + .25q = 6.95.  That's the value of the coins.  Solve the first equation for dimes.  d = 38 - q.  Now we can sub in that value of d into the second equation, so we have only one unknown instead of 2.  .10(38-q)+.25q=6.95.  Distribute through the parenthesis to get 3.8-.1q+.25q=6.95.  Combine all the like terms on both sides to get.15q=3.15.  Solve for q and get that q = 21.  So we have 21 quarters.  38-21 = # of dimes, which is 17.  There you go!  Hope that's what you actually needed!  ;)

A) d + q = 38
B)  .1d +.25q = 6.95
Multiply A) by -.1
A) -.1d + -.1q = -3.8The adding B)B)  .1d +.25q = 6.95
.15q = 3.15
21 quarters17 dime
Double-Check********************************************************
17 * .10 + 21 * .25 = 
1.70 + 5.25 = 
6.95

3(4x-10)=2(3x-30) i need help again i have to turn in all of my school work tomorrow so i don't fail the 8th grade
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The result for this equation is x = -5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

-Solve the equation:

3(4x-10)=2(3x-30)

-Use Distributive Property:

3(4x-10)=2(3x-30)

12x - 30=6x - 60

-Subtract 6x and from 12x :

12x - 30 -6x=6x -6x - 60

6x - 30=-60

-Add both sides by 30:

6x - 30 +30=-60 +30

6x =-30

-Then, you divide both sides by 6:

\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{-30}{6}

x = -5

So, therefore the answer is x = -5 .

In 2001, a total of 15,555 homicide deaths occurred among males and 4,753 homicide deaths occurred among females. The estimated
deff fn [24]

Answer:

a. 11

b. 3

c. homicide mortality rate

d. 11:3

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) If 15,555 homicide cases were recorded among males of 139,813,000 population, then in every 100,000 males, the number of homicides cases will become:

= [15,555/139,813,000] * 100,000

= 11.13 aproximately 11 homicide cases in every 100,000 males.

b.) If 4,753 homicide cases were recorded among Females of 144,984,000 population, then in every 100,000 Females, the number of homicides cases will become:

= [4753/144,984,000] * 100,000

= 3.28 approximately 3 homicide cases in every 100,000 females

C.) Homicide-mortality rate

d.) ratio of male to female homicide rate = 11 : 3

e.) What those rates means is that in every 100,000

Males in 2001, 11 of them were Victims of homicide and in every 100,000 females, 3 of them are victims of homicide.

<h3>Answer: Monthly Payment = $12,083.34</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

i = P*r*t ... simple interest formula

i = (1,500,000)*(0.03)*(15)

i = 675,000

The amount of interest you need to pay is $675,000

The total amount to pay back is 1,500,000+675,000 = 2,175,000 dollars.

Divide this over 180 months (since 15 years = 15*12 = 180 months) to get

(2,175,000)/180 = 12,083.3333333333

This rounds up to the nearest cent to get 12,083.34

I rounded up to make sure to clear the hurdle. Note how

180*(12,083.33) = 2,174,999.4

which is a bit short of the 2,175,000 mark we're after

AC = 16, AB = x + 1, and BC = x + 7. What is the measure of the length of AB? HELP
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

AC=AB+BC

so 16=x+1+x+7

which simplifies to 16=2x+8

subtract eight from both sides to get 8=2x

then divide by 2 to get that x=4

AB=x+1, which substitutes into 4+1=5

Help help help please homework is killing me right now
Veronika [31]

The domain of a function is the set of input or argument values for which the function is real and defined.

So, for the given function to be defined, we need to find the possible values for which the values of x makes the square root to be positive.

That is;

-9 -5x ≥ 0

Now, let's solve for x

Add 9 to both-side of the equation

-5x ≥ 9

Divide both-side by -5

x ≤ -9/5

Therefore, the domain of the function can be represented in interval notation as: ( - ∞ , -9/5]
