Answer:

q = 15

n = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Let the nickels = n

Let the quarters = q

q + n = 40                            (1)

0.25*d + 0.05*n = 5.00       (2)    Multiply 2 by 100 to get everything into pennies. It is currently in dollars.

25q + 5n = 500                    Multiply (1) by 5

5q + 5n = 200                     Subtract

20q = 300                           Divide by 20

20q/20 = 300/20               Do the division

q = 15

q + n = 40                             Substitute 15 for q

15 + n = 40                           Subtract 15 from both sides

15 - 15 + n = 40 - 15              

n = 25

Check

15 * 0.25 + 25 * 0.05

3.75 +  1.25

5

Which is what it should equal.

The keypad on Sam’s cell phone is shown at right. As you can see,
anzhelika [568]

To complete the table we must carefully observe the keypad, we will notice that each number is equivalent to 3 letters of the alphabet except the numbers 7 and 9 which have 4 letters each.

<h3>How does the keypad work?</h3>

Previously, cell phone keypad had a different layout than today. The numbers were related to the letters of the alphabet and the number key was pressed according to the letters that were related.

For example, if you wanted to type the letter B, you would have to press the number 2 key twice.

The relationship of numbers and letters was distributed as follows:

  1. It had no letters.
  2. A, B and C.
  3. D, E and F.
  4. G, H and I.
  5. J, K and L.
  6. M, N and O.
  7. P, Q, R and S.
  8. T, U and V.
  9. W, X, Y, and Z.

According to the above, the table would be completed as follows.

Note: This question is incomplete because there is some missing information. Here is the missing information:

1. Complete this table to show the relation from letter to number.

An altitude is drawn from the vertex of an isosceles triangle, forming a right angle
Hatshy [7]

Answer:56.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

For perimeter we must find the lengths of the 2 diagonal sides of the triangle which are the same because it is isosceles.

the triangle is cut directly in half so both halves of the base are 17/2

17/2 = 8.5

solve through pythagoren theorum

altitude^2 + (half of base)^2 = (diagonal length)^2

18^2 + (8.5)^2 = (diagonal length)^2

324 + 72.25 = (diagonal length)^2

396.3 = (diagonal length)^2

\sqrt{396.3} = diagonal length

diagonal length = 19.9

diagonal length + diagonal length + base = perimeter

19.9 + 19.9 + 17 = perimeter

56.8 inches = perimeter
