X = pennies

3x = nickels

x-2 = dimes

0.01x + 0.05(3x) + 0.10(x-2) = 1.10

0.01x + 0.15x + 0.10x - 0.20 = 1.10

0.26x-0.20 = 1.10

0.26x = 1.30

x = 1.30 / 0.26 = 5

5 pennies
5-2 = 3 dimes
3*5 = 15 nickels

check: 5 pennies = 0.05, 3 dimes = 0.30, 15 nickels = 0.75
0.75 + 0.30 + 0.05 = 1.10

pennies = 5
nickels = 15
 dimes = 3

Consider the linear function that is represented by the equation y=2x+2 and the linear function that is represented by the graph
arlik [135]
The correct answer is C) the function represented by the graph has a steeper slope and the function represented by the equation has a larger y-intercept.

The equation is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b.  m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.  In this function, the slope is 2 and the y-intercept is 2.

Looking at the graph, the y-intercept is 1.  Going from the y-intercept, if we go up 2, it does not go over quite 1 unit.  Therefore the slope is steeper on the graph.

A tap is filling a 10-liters tank at the speed of 5 liters per minute.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

<em />

  • <em>It takes</em><u>     2.5 minutes   </u><em>to fill the tank.</em>

Explanation:

The net speed or net rate for filling the 10-liters tank is equal to the speed the tap is filling less the speed the water is leaking through the hole located at the bottom of the tank:

  • Net rate = rate of filling - rate of leaking
  • Net rate = 5 liters/minute - 1 liter/minute
  • Net rate = 4 liters/minute

Thus, consiedering the tank is empty at the beginning, the time is:

  • Time = Volume of the tank / net rate of filling
  • Time = 10 liters / (4liters/minute)
  • Time = 2.5 minutes ← answer
