Answer:

Walt has 37 quarters.  Hank has 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the given equation for q:

0.25q + 0.25q - 1.00 = 17.50

Simplify this, obtaining:

0.50q = 18.50

Simplifying this by multiplying both terms of this result by 100:

50 q = 1850

Thus, q = 1850/50 = 37

Walt has 37 quarters.  Hank has 33.

Note that 37 + 33 = 70, and that 70($0.25) = $17.50.  So our results are correct.

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

we are solving 15 + |-3| - 4

anything inside |   | means it's absolute value.

absolute value means that even if it is a negative number inside, it will change to positive. if it is a positive number inside, it will stay the same.

so |-3| is 3.

15 + 3 - 4

18 - 4 = 14.

we got the answer

Y = x2 − 2x − 19
xenn [34]
Y = 5 - 4x

5 - 4x = x^2 - 2x - 19
0 = x^2 + 2x -24
0 = (x + 6)(x - 4)
Therefore x = -6 (Given) or 4

x = 4, y = -9
(4,-9) is the other solution
