C will be the correct answer
It would be -1/2 because the formula to find slope (rate of change) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and in this case it would be (4.5-2)/(-3--2) which simplifies to (2.5)/(-5) which is -1/2
First we expand and combine the terms on the left side. This gives us
12x + 32 -4x + 8 = -8x + 40
8x + 40 = -8x + 40. Because the two sides cancel each other out when you try and bring all the x to one side, the answer is x = 0.
Answer:14
Step-by-step explanation:
A nickel is 5 cents (20% of dollar)
and a quarter is 25 cents (25% of dollar)
We have given a pile of 42 coins worth of $4.90
Let x be the no nickels and
y be the no of quarter
therefore
x+y=42 -----1
+
=4.90 ---2
Solving
we get
x=14 & y=28
Therefore no of nickels is 14 & no of quarters is 28
