Set up a system of equations.
0.10d + 0.25q = 39.25
d + q = 250
Where 'd' represents the number of dimes, and 'q' represents the number of quarters.
d + q = 250
Subtract 'q' to both sides:
d = -q + 250
Plug in '-q + 250' for 'd' in the 1st equation:
0.10(-q + 250) + 0.25q = 39.25
Distribute 0.10:
-0.10q + 25 + 0.25q = 39.25
Combine like terms:
0.15q + 25 = 39.25
Subtract 25 to both sides:
0.15q = 14.25
Divide 0.15 to both sides:
q = 95
Now plug this into any of the two equations to find 'd':
d + q = 250
d + 95 = 250
Subtract 95 to both sides:
d = 155
So there are 95 quarters and 155 dimes.
Answer: 5
Because the two angles are congruent, these sides are congruent, so:
5x-8=2x+7
3x=15
x=5
Q. How many triangles can be constructed with sides measuring 5 m, 16 m, and 5 m?
Solution:
Here we are given with the sides of the triangle as 5m, 16m and 5.
As the Triangle inequality we know that
The sum of the length of the two sides should be greater than the length of the third side. But this inequality fails here.
Hence no triangle can be made.
So the correct option is None.
Q.How many triangles can be constructed with sides measuring 6 cm, 2 cm, and 7 cm?
Solution:
Here we are given with the sides of the triangle as 6m, 2m and 7m.
As the Triangle inequality we know that
The sum of the length of the two sides should be greater than the length of the third side. The given values follows the triangle inequality.
Hence one triangle can be formed.
So the correct option is one.
Answer:
b / (b - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Litres of water held by bucket = b
Jar holds 8 litres fewer than bucket; hence, litres held by jar = b - 8
The number of times bucket can hold than jar is :
Litres held by bucket / litres held by jar
b / (b - 8)
