Answer:
35 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
This situation has two unknowns - the total number of dimes and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.
is an equation representing the total number of coins
is an equation representing the total value in money based on the number of coin. 0.10 and 0.25 come from the value of a dime and quarter individually.
We write the first equation in terms of q by subtracting it across the equal sign to get 
. We now substitute this for d in the second equation.
After simplifying, we subtract 6 across and divide by the coefficient of q.
We now know of the 60 coins that 35 are quarters. To find the total value of the quarters, we multiply 35 by 0.25 and find 8.75.
A) If you cut off half the peaks (3.5 ft down from the top), they will just fill the valleys making a rectangle 18.5 ft by 30 ft. The area is the product of these dimensions.
A = (18.5 ft)*(30 ft) = 555 ft²
b) To determine the number of quarts of paint required, divide this number by 90 ft². Since you cannot buy a partial quart, if there is any remainder, use the next higher integer number of quarts.
555/90 ≈ 6.2 so Pat should buy 7 quarts of paint.

Answer:
c) 6x - 5y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form of a linear equation: 
(where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)
Maria's line: 
Therefore, the slope of Maria's line is 
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, the product of their slopes will be -1.
Therefore, the slope of Nate's line (m) is:
Therefore, the linear equation of Nate's line is:
Rearranging this to standard form:
Therefore, <u>option c</u> could be an equation for Nate's line.
