Which choice correctly expresses the number below in scientific notation?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

In scientific notation, the number that is being multiplied by the power of ten must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. This eliminates options B, C, and E. The rest of the options are all 5.79 times something. To find that something, we can do 5,790,000 / 5.79 = 1000000 = 10⁶. This means that the answer is D.

Kevin and Randy Muise have a jar containing 92 coins, all of which are either quarters or nickels. The total value of the coins
Artemon [7]
<span>Let n = the number of nickles
Let q = the number of quarters
Then for your problem we have
(1) n + q = 43 and
(2) 5*n + 25*q = 100*6.95 (always work in cents to avoid decimal numbers) or
(3) 5*n + 25*q = 695
Now substitute n of (1) into (3) and get
(4) 5*(43 - q) + 25*q = 695 or
(5) 215 - 5*q + 25*q = 695 or
(6) 20*q = 695 - 215 or

(7) 20*q = 480 or
(8) q = 24
Then using (1) we get
(9) n + 24 = 43 or
(10) n = 19
Let's check these values.
Is (.05*19 + .25*24 = 6.95)?
Is (.95 + 6.00 = 6.95)?
Is (6.95 = 6.95)? Yes
Answer: Kevin and Randy have 19 nickles and 24 quarters in the jar.</span>
