A coin bank has 250 coins dimes and quarters worth 39.25 how many of each type of coins are there?

2 answers:

8 0

Set up a system of equations.

0.10d + 0.25q = 39.25
d + q = 250

Where 'd' represents the number of dimes, and 'q' represents the number of quarters.

d + q = 250

Subtract 'q' to both sides:

d = -q + 250

Plug in '-q + 250' for 'd' in the 1st equation:

0.10(-q + 250) + 0.25q = 39.25

Distribute 0.10:

-0.10q + 25 + 0.25q = 39.25

Combine like terms:

0.15q + 25 = 39.25

Subtract 25 to both sides:

0.15q = 14.25

Divide 0.15 to both sides:

q = 95

Now plug this into any of the two equations to find 'd':

d + q = 250

d + 95 = 250

Subtract 95 to both sides:

d = 155

So there are 95 quarters and 155 dimes.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Radius of the ball is approximately 6.5 cm to the nearest tenth

Explanation:

The ball has the shape of a sphere

Surface area of a sphere can be calculated using the following rule:

Surface area of sphere = 4πr² square units

In the given problem, we have:

Surface area of the ball = 531 cm²

Substitute with the area in the above equation and solve for the radius as follows:

$531 = 4\pi r^2\\ r^2=\frac{531}{4\pi } = 42.255 \\ \\ r=\sqrt{42.255}=6.5004 cm$ which is approximately 6.5 cm to the nearest tenth
