We could say that the number of pennies is 2x, nickels are 3x, and dimes are 4x. Adding all of them together, we get 2x+3x+4x=9x. We also know that 9x=1620 because the total amount of coins is 1620. Dividing by 9 on both sides we get x=180.
Pennies equal 2x= 2*180=360

Joanne has 20 books on crafts and cooking. she has 6 more cookbooks than craft books. how many of each does she have?​
marin [14]

Answer:

Crafts books: 7

Cookbooks: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the crafts book

Let y be the cookbooks

Solve for x:

  1. Plug x and y in: x + y = 20
  2. Re-write: y = x + 6
  3. Plug in x + 6 instead of y: x + x + 6 = 20
  4. Combine like terms: 2x + 6 = 20
  5. Subtract 6 from each side, so it now looks like this: 2x = 14
  6. Divide each side by 2 to cancel out the 2 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 7

Solve for y:

  1. Re-use an equation from above: y = x + 6
  2. Plug in the value of x: y = 7 + 6
  3. 7 + 6 = 13
  4. So, y = 13

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Yes that is correct. B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you plug 0 in for x, the result is 3.

When you plug 1 in for x, the result becomes 1.

The equation matches up correctly.

f(x) = -2x + 3

The rectangle below has an area of 8x^5+12x^3+20x^28x 5 +12x 3 +20x 2 8, x, start superscript, 5, end superscript, plus, 12, x,
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The width is: w(x)=4x^2

The length is l(x)=2x^2+3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rectangle has area given algebraically by the function:

a(x)=8x^5+12x^3+20x^2

The width of the rectangle is the greatest common factor of 8x^5,  12x^3 and 20x^2

That is the width is: w(x)=4x^2

We now divide the area by the width to obtain the length of the rectangle:

l(x)=\frac{8x^5+12x^3+20x^2}{4x^2}

This simplifies to:

l(x)=\frac{8x^5}{4x^2}+\frac{12x^3}{4x^2}+\frac{20x^2}{4x^2}

l(x)=2x^2+3x+5
