Answer:

4 Nickels

28 dimes


Step-by-step explanation:

What do we know?

1 dime = $0.10 and 1 nickel = $0.05

We can set up an equation that states:

7x (0.10) + x (0.05) = 3.00


Multiplying out we get:

.70x + .05x = 3.00

If you don't like the decimals you can multiply the entire equation by 100 to get rid of them; you would be left with

70x + 5x = 300

Combine the x terms

75x = 300

Divide both sides by 75

x = 4

Now we use this value with our originally given information. We were told that Sally had 7 times as many dimes as she had nickels so

Dimes equal = 7(x) or 7(4) = 28

Nickels equal = x which was 4

We can check this:

28 dimes would equal = $2.80 and 4 nickels would equal $0.20; adding these two amounts together and it equals $3.00

Answer:

12 nickles

Step-by-step explanation:

24 dimes = $2.40

12 nickles = .60

$2.40 + .60 = $3.00

If f(x)=3x+1 then f(a+h)-f(a)
Varvara68 [4.7K]
F(x) = 3x+1
put x = a+h
f(a+h)  = 3(a+h) + 1
f(a+h) = 3a + 3h + 1
put x = a
f(a) = 3a + 1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a + 3h + 1 -(3a+1)
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a +3h + 1 - 3a -1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3h

Hey Guys! I need some help. This is the question... Sara travels often for her job. The miles she traveled for the last seven wo
Schach [20]

Using the median concept, it is found that the interquartile range of Sara's daily miles is of 21 miles.

<h3>What are the median and the quartiles of a data-set?</h3>

  • The median of the data-set separates the bottom half from the upper half, that is, it is the 50th percentile.
  • The first quartile is the median of the first half of the data-set.
  • The third quartile is the median of the second half of the data-set.
  • The interquartile range is the difference of the quartiles.

The ordered data-set is given as follows:

65, 72, 86, 88, 91, 93, 97

There are 7 elements, hence the median is the 4th element, of 88. Then:

  • The first half is 65, 72, 86.
  • The second half is 91, 93, 97.

Since the quartiles are the medians of each half, the have that:

  • The first quartile is of 72 miles.
  • The third quartile is of 93 miles.
  • The interquartile range is of 93 - 72 = 21 miles.

16x 2 + 8x - 15 Mathematics?
Gala2k [10]
If you're factoring, your answer is

(4x - 3)(4x + 5)

You'll work it out this way:

16x^2 + 8x - 15

Since there's no GCF here, you multiply the first and third terms, giving you -240. Your next step is to find two numbers that have a sum of 8 and a product of -240. These numbers are 20 and -12. Plug those in and you've got:

16x^2 + 20x - 12x - 15

From here you divide it into two binomials. These are (16x^2 + 20x) and (-12x - 15).
When you take out the greatest common factors (4x and -3), they become:

4x(4x + 5) - 3(4x + 5)

Then you group what's outside of the parentheses together (4x - 3)
And bring what's inside of the parentheses down (4x + 5).
This brings your answer to

(4x - 3)(4x + 5)
