Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's represent our number of quarters with q and our dimes with d. We know that each q has a value of 0.25, and each d has a value of 0.1. This means that 0.25q+0.1d=1.85. We also know that q+d=11 as there are 11 total coins.

Here is our system of equations.

0.25q+0.1d=1.85

q+d=11

We are asked to solve with elimination. To do this, we need combine the equations to cancel out a variable to solve for the other. We have 1d on the bottom. Let's multiply the entire top equation by -10 to get a -1d on the top so we can do this.

-2.5q-d=-18.5

q+d=11

We combine the equations.

-1.5q=-7.5

We divide both sides by -1.5

q=5

Since there are 11 coins in total, this means that there are 5 quarters and 6 dimes.

Have a wonderful day!

Answer:

? = 85°

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

here n = 5 , then

sum = 180° × 3 = 540°

sum of the angles around a point = 360° , so

interior angle on right = 360° - 250° = 110°

sum the interior angles and equate to 540°

110° + 115° + 120° + 110° + ? = 540° , that is

455° + ? = 540° ( subtract 455° from both sides )

? = 85°

What is the equation for the vertical asymptote of the function shown below? f(x)=3x^4-3/2x-5
levacccp [35]
f(x)= \frac{3x^4}{2x-5}

the va's are where x is undefined, or where the denomenator is zero
first simplify if applicable
cannot simplify

set denom to zero
2x-5=0
2x=5
x=2.5

the vertical assemtote is vertical so it is x=2.5 or 5/2

the VA is x=5/2

Is the prime factorization below correct

24
24+2.3.4



Answer: 100


Prime numbers are natural numbers (positive whole numbers that sometimes include 0 in certain definitions) that are greater than 1, that cannot be formed by multiplying two smaller numbers. An example of a prime number is 7, since it can only be formed by multiplying the numbers 1 and 7. Other examples include 2, 3, 5, 11, etc.
