Bethany has $3.10 in nickels and dimes. She has a total of 44 coins. What is the value of the nickels Bethany has?

2 answers:

8 0

0.05n + 0.1d = 3.10
n + d = 44

d = 44 - n

Substituting to the first equation:

0.05n + 0.1(44 - n) = 3.10
0.05n + 4.4 - 0.1n = 3.10
-0.05n = 3.10 - 4.4
n = 26

Obtaining the value of nickels:
26 * 0.05 = 1.3

Therefore, the value of nickels that Bethany has is $1.30

How much would $100 invested at 8% intrest compounded annually be worth after 15 years? round your answer to the nearest cent. d

frosja888 [35]

Our P = 100, r = .08, n = 1 (annually means once a year), and t = 15. Filling in accordingly, we have $A(t)=100(1+ \frac{.08}{1})^{(1)(15)}$ . Simplifying a bit gives us $A(t)=100(1+.08)^{15}$ and $A(t)=100(1.08)^{15}$ . Raising that number inside the parenthesis to the 15th power gives us $A(t)=100(3.172169114)$ . Multiplying to finish means that A(t) = $317.22
