Let's use the variables N and Q for the number of nickels and the number of quarters.

We know there are 49 total coins, so we can write the following equation:

N + Q = 49

We can solve this equation for one variable which will help in the next step. Let's solve for N:

N = 49 - Q

Next, we know that nickels are worth $0.05 and quarters are worth $0.25. We can use these values along with the total value of $8.85 to create another equation.

0.05N + 0.25Q = 8.85

Now we can use substitution to solve our system out equations. We solved the first equation for N, so we can plug 49 - Q in for N.

0.05(49-Q) + 0.25Q = 8.85

Distribute and combine like terms.

2.45 - 0.05Q + 0.25Q = 8.85

2.45 + 0.2Q = 8.85

0.2Q = 6.4

Q = 32

Plug 32 in for Q in N + Q = 49 to find the number of nickels.

N + 32 = 49

N = 17

Dustin has 32 quarters and 17 nickels.

How do you find arc ab
Marta_Voda [28]
Use trigonometry to find the angle between the segments 3 and 6.
  ∠XOB = arccos(3/6) = 60°

The measure of arc AB is double that angle, since the figure is symmetrical about the line containing the segment of length 3.

m(arc AB) = 2·60° = 120°

Answer:

2758 Nm

Step-by-step explanation

Work done usually depends on two things force applied and distance travelled due to applied force. In this current scenario, the force is being applied at an angle so we will have to find a component of force in the direction of the movement.

We usually find component using cos θ.

Here θ is 40°

Now, the modified equation becomes,

Work Done = Force * Distance * Component of force along the direction of distance

∴ Work = 30 N * 120 m * Cos 40°

⇒Work = 30 * 120 * 0.766

⇒Work = 2757.6 Nm

Rounding to the nearest whole number.

∴ The work done by force is 2758 Nm which is option B

Answer:

D. Yes; the graph passes the vertical line test.

Step-by-step explanation:

→The vertical line test is when you hold something (like a pencil), straight up/vertically, and you move it from left-to-right to see if any two points repeat.

<u>→The correct answer is "D. Yes; the graph passes the vertical line test,"</u> because the x-values can't repeat, not the y-values, if the graph were to show a function. In this case, the graph passes the vertical line test.
