Answer:

3+d=q and 0.10d+0.25q=1.80

There are 3 dimes and 6 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation has two unknowns - the total number of dimes and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.  

We know there are three more quarters than dimes. We write that as 3+d=q.

We also know the total cost and the value of each coin. We write 0.10d+0.25q=1.80.

We substitute 3+d for q in the second equation.

0.10d+0.25(3+d)=1.80

0.10d+0.75+0.25d=1.80

0.35d+0.75=1.80

We isolate the variable by subtracting 0.75 across the equal sign and then dividing by the coefficient of d.

0.35d=1.05

d=3

There are 3 dimes.

What is the total cost of a $56.53 meal at a restaurant after including a 17% tip?
masya89 [10]
C. $66.14 

I'm only saying C without showing work because it's kinda obvious.

If the meal costs $56.36 without including the tip that's akready way more than A, B, or D. So the answer is C.

Explain in a complete sentence how to tell the difference between the power of power and the power of product rule. Please help
german

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The power of a power rule is when power is raised to another power. (x^n)^m.  when you do this rule, you must multiply the exponents so, x^nm or x^n*m.

The product rule for exponents is used when there are multiple terms that are raised by an exponent that have the same base and ae being multiplied. x^3 * x^2. To solve this, you keep the base (x) and add the two exponents together (3 and 2) so, x^3+2 = x^5.

Hope this helped (:
