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.

A nursery has 10 tree seedlings to give out at 2 workshops. It wants to give out a minimum of 2 seedlings at each workshop. How

11111nata11111 [884]

We are given total 10 tree seedlings.

Number of workshops = 2.

Here order doesn't matters.

<em>When order doesn't matters we apply combination.</em>

We know formula of combination:

$C(n,r) = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

For the given situation, we have

n=10 and r=2.

Plugging values in formula, we get

$\frac{10!}{2!(10-8)!} = \frac{10\times 9\times8!}{2!8!}$

$\frac{10 \times 9}{2} = \frac{90}{2} =45$

<h3>Therefore, 45 different ways can the nursery give out seedlings.</h3>

Sara has 24 sweets

Tresset [83]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The expression for the number of sweets that Sara and Tim have now, are:

$Sara=(17-x)Sweets\\\\Tim=\frac{(24+x)Sweets}{2}$

<h2>Why?</h2>

To write the expressions for the number of sweets that Sara and Tim have now, we need to follow the next steps:

Sara starts with 24 sweets and Tim starts with 24 sweets

$Sara=24 Sweets\\Tim=24 Sweets$

Then, Sara gives Tim x Sweets

$Sara=(24-x)Sweets\\Tim=(24+x)Sweets$

Then. Sara eats 7 of her Sweets

$Sara=(24-x-7) Sweets\\Sara=(17-x )Sweets\\Tim=(24+x) Sweets$

Then, Tim eats half of his sweets

$Sara=(17-x)Sweets\\\\Tim=\frac{(24+x)Sweets}{2}$

So, the expression for the number of sweets that Sara and Tim have now, are:

$Sara=(17-x) Sweets\\\\Tim=\frac{(24+x)Sweets}{2}$

Have a nice day!

What is the Point slope equation

anastassius [24]

Answer:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form equation is [ y - y1 = m(x - x1) ]

(x1, y1) is any given point on the line.

m is the slope.

To solve this you would need these things:

Slope (y2-y1/x2-x1)
Y-intercept (y = mx + b)

Best of Luck!
