Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the number of dimes Lily saved. Then the value of her coins in cents is ...

10d +100(16-d) = 520

-90d +1600 = 520 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms

-90d = -1080 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1600

d = -1080/-90 = 12 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of d

Lily has 12 ten-cent coins.

What is the slope of this line?

shutvik [7]

I think it’s -1 because with rise/run it goes down 2 and over 2 but the line is going down, so it’s negative.

$9+3n \geq 6 \ \lor \ 5n\ \textless \ 25 \\
3n \geq 6-9 \ \lor \ n \ \textless \ \frac{25}{5} \\
3n \geq -3 \ \lor \ n \ \textless \ 5 \\
n \geq \frac{-3}{3} \\
n \geq -1 \\ \\
\boxed{n \geq -1 \hbox{ or } n\ \textless \ 5} \\ \\

A ship goes at the rate of (3m-2) knots per hour. How far can it travel in (4m+9) hours?

Ber [7]

Answer: $12m^2+19m-18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Speed of boat $v=3m-2\ \text{knots per hour}$

$\text{time t= }4m+9\ \text{hours}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Distance =speed}\times \text{time}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Distance d=}(3m-2)\cdot (4m+9)\\\Rightarrow d=12m^2+19m-18$
