Set up
Let the dimes = d
Let the pennies = p
Let the quarters = q
Equations
You cannot mean that the pennies and dimes have equal numbers. That would mean that each had 21.5 members. Now could you mean that the dime and penny amount could be the same with 43 coins that total 4.00. Four dollars means that you need 40 dimes alone. It must mean that you are including quarters.
p + d + p = 43 (1)
p = d (2)
p +10d +25q = 451 (3)
Note how this last equation = was derived. You have to multiply the dimes by 10 and he quarters by 100 and the total by 100 to get the numbers all in pennies.
Put the results of 2 into 1.
2p + q = 43 (4)
You need to modify equation 3 as well.
p + 10p + 25q = 451
11p + 25q = 451 (5)
Solve the new equations
2p + q = 43 (4)
11p + 25q = 451 (5)
Multiply 4 by 25
25(2p- + q = 43)
50p + 25q = 1075 (6) Subtract (5) from (6)
<u>11p + 25q = 451
</u>39p = 624 Divide by 39
p = 624 / 39
p = 16
Since the pennies and dimes are equal there are 16 dimes
p + d + q = 43
16 + 16 + q = 43
32 + q = 43
q = 11
Check
16 + 10*16 + 11*25 = ?
16 + 160 + 275 = ?
451 = ?
Nice problem. Thanks for posting.
Answer:
283.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A=πr^2
A=π(9.5^2)
A=π(90.25)
π x 90.25=283.5 (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Answer:
I feel bad for you
Step-by-step explanation:
sorry.....
Using the empirical rule 68% would fall within one standard deviation of the mean.
The standard deviation is given as 2 inches and the mean is 49 inches.
Since it is only one standard deviation find the lower number by subtracting the standard deviation from the mean and find the higher number by adding the standard deviation to the mean.
49 - 2 = 47
49 + 2 = 51
68% would be between 47 inches and 51 inches tall.
