You find 72 coins consisting only of nickels, dimes, and quarters, with a face value of $10.20. However, the coins all date from

1919, and are worth considerably more than their face value. A coin dealer offers you $10 for each nickel, $20 for each dime, and $15 for each quarter, for a total of $1,060. How many nickels did you find?

Answer:

You have found 24 nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N be the number of nickles, D be the number of dimes and Q be the number of quarters. The number of coins and their face values are given by the following expressions, respectively:

N+D+Q=72\\0.05N+0.10D+0.25Q=10.20

As of now we have three variables and two expressions, the final expression needed to solve the linear system is given by the amount offered by the coin dealer:

10N+20D+15Q=1,060

Solving the linear system:

N+D+Q=72\\5N+10D+25Q=1,020\\10N+20D+15Q=1,060\\\\10N-10N+20D-20D+15Q-50Q=1,060-(2*1,020)\\-35Q=-980\\Q=28\\\\5N-10N+10D-10D+25Q-10Q=1,020-720\\-5N+15Q=300\\-5N=300-(15*28)\\N=24

You have found 24 nickels.

Adult men have heights with a mean of 69. 0 inches and a standard deviation of 2. 8 inches. find the z-score of a man who is 71.
Anarel [89]

The value of the z score is 1.03.

According to the statement

we have given that the value of mean and standard deviation and we have to find the value of the z score.

So, For this purpose we know that the

Z-score indicates how much a given value differs from the standard deviation. The Z-score, or standard score, is the number of standard deviations a given data point lies above or below mean.

And the given values are:

mean value = 69 inches

s.d value = 2.8 inches

And the value of x is 71.9 inches.

So, The Z score is

z = x - mean / standard deviation

substitute the values in it then

z = 71.9 - 69 / 2.8

then

z = 2.9 /2.8

z  = 1.03

So, The value of the z score is 1.03.

Read the question on the picture.

These two lines are congruent (the same) so we can set them equal to each other and solve.

5x-4=3x+6

The first thing we need to do is subtract 3x from both sides leaving us with 2x-4=6

Now we can add 4 to both sides leaving us with 2x=2

Now we need to divide both sides by 2 to get x alone.

Giving us our final answer of x=1
