A collection of dimes and nickels is worth $8.40 there are 106 coins how many of each are there
kotegsom [21]
There are 62 dimes and 44 nickels.

N + D = 106 (There are 106 coins in all.)
1 nickel = 5 cents.
1 dime = 10 cents.
5*N + 10*D = 840 ($8.40 = 840 cents)
N + D = 106 -------(1)
N = (106 - D)
5*N + 10*D = 840 ---------(2)
5*(106-D) + 10*D = 840
530 - 5*D + 10*D = 840
5*D = 840 - 530
5*D = 310
D = 310/5 = 62
Eq(1) N + D = 106
N + 62 = 106
N = 106 - 62
N = 44

Students who attend Washington Middle School are either in seventh or eighth grade.
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

There are 1240 students at Washington middle school.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages and Portions

We can find portions of a whole by correctly managing the percentages of each part. We know 25% of all students at Washington middle school were on the honor roll. From that portion, 60% of the students are seventh graders. That means 40% of the 25% are eight graders, i.e. 40*25%=10% were from eight grade.

We have 10% of all students are 124, thus the number of students are 124/10%=1240

There are 1240 students at Washington middle school.  

Let's test the answer. 25% of 1240 students are on the honor roll, which is 310 students. 40% of 310 students are from 8th grade, 40%*310 = 124 as stated in the problem

Conditional Probability Assistance?
krek1111 [17]

Let the event A=\{ Sophomore \}, B=\{ Boy \}

The the probability of the events

P(A \cap B)=\frac{5}{12+18} =\frac{1}{6}

P( B)=\frac{12}{12+18} =\frac{2}{5}

The conditional probability

P(Sophomore|Boy)=P(A|B)=\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} =\frac{1/6}{2/5} =\frac{5}{12}
