Consider the function represented by the table. For which x is f(x)?=–3 –7 –4 4 5

svp [43]

-7. When you look at the graph it is divided into x and f(x). f(x) is the same as y so the question is basically asking you what is x when y is -3. So you just go to the -3 under f(x) and look over to find that the answer is -7

Connor has a collection of dimes and quarters with a total value of $6.30. The number of dimes is 14 more than the number of qua

Anarel [89]

Connor has 14 quarters and 28 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of coins = $6.30 = 6.30*100 = 630 cents

We know that,

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

Let,

Quarter = x

Dime = y

According to given statement;

25x+10y=630 Eqn 1

The number of dimes is 14 more than the number of quarters

y = x+14 Eqn 2

Putting value of y from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

$25x+10(x+14)=630\\25x+10x+140=630\\35x=630-140\\35x=490$

Dividing both sides by 35

$\frac{35x}{35}=\frac{490}{35}\\x=14$

Putting x=14 in Eqn 2

$y=14+14\\y=28$

Connor has 14 quarters and 28 dimes.
