Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 nickels, 2 dimes, and 6 quarters. That means a total of 12 coins, half of which are quarters.
(realistically, if she wanted to, she could probably get a quarter every time if she felt for the size)
Completing the square follows the principle of taking

and converting it into

where d is the 'correctional number' as I like to call it - i.e. the number that converts the expanded bracket into the +c, since the expanded bracket will give us

.
In this case, 2/2=1 so we have the first part:

.
Expanding this gives us

. We need c to be 9, so we can just add 8.
Putting this together:

Now we can solve it more easily.

Answer:
294 cars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of cars and y be the number of trucks.
We have been given that the first dealership sells a total of 164 cars and trucks. We can represent this information as:

The second dealership sells twice as many cars and half as many trucks as the first dealership. So the number of cars sold by 2nd dealership will be 2x and number of trucks sold by 2nd dealership will be y/2.
Further, the 2nd dealership sold a total of 229 cars and trucks. We can represent this information as:

We can see that total number of cars sold on two dealerships will be
.
We will use substitution method to solve for x. From equation (1) we will get,

Substituting this value in equation (2) we will get,

Now let us have a common denominator.


Upon multiplying both sides of our equation by 2 we will get,





Therefore, the total number of cars sold by two dealerships is 294.
