Rainfall in October in Forks, Washington = 8 3/8 inches
= 67/8 inches
Percentage of rainfall that has fallen less in September in Forks, Washington = 60%
Let us assume the amount of rainfall in September in Forks, Washington = x
Then
100x/60 = 67/8
10x/6 = 67/8
5x/3 = 67/8
5x * 8 = 67 * 3
40x = 201
x = 201/40
= 5 1/40 inches
So the amount of rainfall in September in Washinton is 5 1/40 inches.
Answer:
c = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Use synthetic division here; it's the fastest approach.
Given that (x + 2) is a factor, take -2 and use this as the divisor in synthetic division:
-2 4 c 1 2
-8 (-2c+ 16) (4c-34)
---------------------------------------------
4 (c - 8) (-2c + 17) 4c - 32
The remainder, 4c - 32, must equal zero if (x + 2) is a factor.
Then 4c - 32 = 0, and c = 8
<span>Let n = the number of nickles
Let q = the number of quarters
Then for your problem we have
(1) n + q = 43 and
(2) 5*n + 25*q = 100*6.95 (always work in cents to avoid decimal numbers) or
(3) 5*n + 25*q = 695
Now substitute n of (1) into (3) and get
(4) 5*(43 - q) + 25*q = 695 or
(5) 215 - 5*q + 25*q = 695 or
(6) 20*q = 695 - 215 or
(7) 20*q = 480 or
(8) q = 24
Then using (1) we get
(9) n + 24 = 43 or
(10) n = 19
Let's check these values.
Is (.05*19 + .25*24 = 6.95)?
Is (.95 + 6.00 = 6.95)?
Is (6.95 = 6.95)? Yes
