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

What is this expression?

Liula [17]

Answer:

2) 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(4^-3 * 3^4 * 4^2)/(3^5 * 4^-2)

4^-3 * 3^4 * 4^2 = 4^-1 * 3^4

(4^-1 * 3^4)/(4^-2 * 3^5)

(3^4)/(3^5) = 1/(3^5-4)

(4^(-1))/(4^-2 * 3^(5-4)

(4^-1)/(4^-2 * 3)

4^(-1 - (-2)) / (3)

-1 - (-2) = 1

Identifiy the initial amount a and the decay factor b in the exponential function y=5×0.5^×

xenn [34]

Answer:

$a=5\\ \\b=0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the exponential decay function $y=5\cdot (0.5)^x$

When $x=0,$ then

$y=5\cdot (0.5)^0=5\cdot 1=5,$

so the initial amount is $a=5$

The exponential decay function $y=a\cdot b^x$ has the decay factor $b.$

In your case, the eexponential decay factor is $b=0.5$

Which of the following is the solution set to the inequality −25x+14>20?

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Option C. $x < -15$

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct inequality is

$-\frac{2}{5}x+14 >20$

Solve for x

subtract 14 both sides

$-\frac{2}{5}x+14-14 >20-14$

$-\frac{2}{5}x >6$

Multiply by -1 both sides

$\frac{2}{5}x < -6$

Multiply by 5/2 both sides

$x < -6(\frac{5}{2})$

$x < -15$
