Answer:

x=12 (12 nickels))

y=5 (5 dimes)

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the problem, you can set up the following system of linear equations, where:

x: number of nickels.

y: number of dimes.

Then

FIRST EQUATION: x+y=17

SECOND EQUATION: 5x+10y=110  (in cents)

You can apply the Substitution method:

- Solve for x from the first equation.

- Substitute into the second equation and solve for y.

 Then:

x=17-y

5(17-y)+10y=110\\85-5y+10y=110\\5y=25\\y=5

- Find x:

x=17-5\\x=12

Suppose you invest $950 at an annual interest rate of 6.5% compounded continuously. How much will you have in the account after
posledela
The correct answer is $1820.

The formula for continuously compounded interest is

A = Pe^(rt), where P is the amount of principal, r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal number, and t is the number of years.  Using our information, we have:

A = 950*e^(0.065*10) = 1819.76 ≈ 1820

Find the value of z. round to the nearest hundredth
Svetradugi [14.3K]

ANSWER

C. 64.29

EXPLANATION

The bigger right triangle is similar to the smaller right triangle, therefore

\frac{30}{14}  =  \frac{z}{30}

Multiply both sides by 30;

30 \times  \frac{30}{14}  =  \frac{z}{30}  \times 30

Simplify

z =  \frac{900}{14}

z = 64.28571429

We correct to the nearest hundredthth to obtain,

z = 64.29

The correct choice is C.
