Kelly has 4 dimes and some nickels. The value of her coins is 2.25 how many

1 answer:

8 0

4 dimes=4 *10=40 cents

2.25-0.40=1.85

1.85=0.05 times number of nickles
times 100 both sides
185=5 times number of nickels
divide both sides by 5
37=number of nickles

has 37 nickles

For the inverse variation equation xy=k what is the constant of variation k when x=-3 And y=-2

ELEN [110]

ANSWER

The constant of variation is 6.

EXPLANATION

The inverse variation equation is:

$xy = k$

We want to find the constant of variation, when x=-3 and y=-2.

We substitute the values for x and y to get,

$- 3 \times - 2 = k$

Multiply out the left hand keeping in mind that negative times negative yields a positive result.

This implies that;

$k= 6$

Hence the constant of variation is 6.

in an election about 500,000 people voted in all which number could be the exact number of people who voted in the election

GREYUIT [131]

I think this question is asking for the closest number to 500,000, which is 533,736. I don't know how to show work for this, except for saying this number is about 33,000 away from 500,000 which is the closest out of 429,455, 441,689, 533,736, and 550,198.

Leah and Carl share a 12-ounce box of cereal. By the end of the week, Leah has eaten

Anton [14]

Answer: Use Fractions and Multiplication.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, you need to find 1/6 of 12. The easiest way to do this is to multiply 12/1 by 1/6. The answer is 12/6, which simplifies to 2. Then, you do the same for 2/3: 12/1*2/3=24/3, which simplifies to 8. You then add the results to figure out how much has been eaten. 8+2=10
