100 dimes and 300 Nickels

X= dimes
Three times as many = 3x= nickels

Dimes are worth 10 cents = 0.10x
Nickels are worth 5 cents = 0.05(3x)

Add both together & solve:

0.10x+0.05(3x)= 25
0.10+0.15x= 25
0.25x=25
Divide both sides by 0.25
x= 100 dimes
Substitute the value of x to find 3x
3x = 3(100)= 300 nickels

Hope this helps!! :)

Evan tosses a ball from the roof of a building. The path of the ball can be modelled
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Please find attached sketch of the path of the ball, having plot area and plot points, created with MS Excel

Step-by-step explanation:

Question;

The equation representing the path of the ball obtained from a similar question posted online are;

h₁ = -4·(t + 1)·(t - 5), h₂ = -4·(t - 2)² + 36, h₃ = -4··t² + 16·t + 20

The above equations represent the same path

The equation, h₁ = -4·(t + 1)·(t - 5), gives the roots of the height function, h(t), used in determining the height of the ball after time <em>t</em>

At (t + 1) = 0 (t = -1) or at (t - 5) = 0 (t = 5), the ball is at ground level

The ball reaches the ground, is at ground level at t = 1, and at t = 5 seconds after being tossed, where h(t) = 0

The equation of the path of the ball in vertex form, y = a·(x - 2)² + k, is h₂ = -4·(t - 2)² + 36, where, by comparison, we have;

The vertex of the ball = The maximum height reached by the ball  = (h, k) = (2, 36)

The coefficient of the quadratic term, t², is negative, therefore, the shape of the parabola is upside down, ∩, shape

The sketch of the path of the ball created with MS Excel, used in plotting the vertex, the initial value and the root points of the parabola, through which the ball passes and joining of the points with a 'smooth' curve is attached

If f(x) = 4(3x - 5), find f^-1(x)
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call f(x)=y, so y= 4*(3*x-5), we want to find 'x', using 'y' as a the variable.

y=12x-20\\ y+20=12x\\ x=\frac{y+20}{12}

Now lets change the name of 'y' to 'x', and 'x' to f^-1(x).

f-1(x) = (x+20)/12
