Since you have two unknowns, you must formulate 2 equations in order to solve the system. Let x be the numbers of dimes and y be the number of quarters. The equations are:

x + y = 61
y = x + 3

Since a dime is 1/10 of a dollar and a quarter is 1/4 of a dollar,
(1/10)x + (1/4)y = 10.90

We made 3 equations. The system is overspecified. Let's just use the first two equations and apply it to the third for verification.

x + (x + 3) = 61
Solving for x,
x = 29
y = 29 + 3 = 32

Verifying,
(1/10)(29) + (1/4)(32) = 10.90

Hence, there are 29 dimes and 32 quarters.

Part A picture above
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

<em>Part A </em>C = (10,5)<em>  Part B </em>C. D'(0,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Part A</em>

Since c is at the point (2,1) in relation to the origin, we can multiply those distances by our scale factor of 5

(2,1) * 5 = (10,5)

The new point C is going to be (10,5)

<em>Part B</em>

If you dilate with a factor of 5 -- relative to the origin -- you have to multiply the distance from <em>the origin</em> by 5.

In this case, point D is already on the y axis, so it's x value wouldn't be affected. Point D is currently 2 units away from (0,0), so we can multiply 2*5 to get 10 -- our ending point is (0,10)

A.The observation deck of tall skyscraper 370 m above the street. Determine the time required for a penny to free fall from the
Ainat [17]

Answer:

8.68 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of the deck above the street, s = 370 m

Since the condition is of free falling

thus,

initial speed, u = 0

Acceleration of the penny = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

Now,

from Newton's equation of motion, we have

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

here,

s is the distance

a is the acceleration

t is the time

on substituting the values, we get

370=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times9.81\times t^2

or

t² = 75.433

or

t = 8.68 seconds
