Answer: 14 dimes and 8 quarters

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

dimes ($0.10): x + 6

quarters ($0.25): x

Cost*quantity of dimes + Cost*quantity of quarters = Total value

0.10(x + 6) + x(0.25) = 3.40

0.10x + 0.60 + 0.25x = 3.40

0.35x + 0.60 = 3.40

<u>            -0.60  </u> <u>-0.60 </u>

0.35x             = 2.80

<u>÷0.35            </u>  <u>÷0.35 </u>

      x              = 8

dimes: x + 6   = 8 + 6   = 14

3x+y=115x-y=21 Directions: Solve each system of equations by elimination. Clearly identify your solution.
olchik [2.2K]

To solve, we will follow the steps below:

3x+y=11 --------------------------(1)



5x-y=21 ------------------------------(2)

since y have the same coefficient, we can eliminate it directly by adding equation (1) and (2)

adding equation (1) and (2) will result;

8x =32

divide both-side of the equation by 8

x = 4

We move on to eliminate x and then solve for y

To eliminate x, we have to make sure the coefficient of the two equations are the same.

We can achieve this by multiplying through equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3

The result will be;

15x + 5y = 55 ----------------------------(3)

15x - 3y =63 --------------------------------(4)

subtract equation (4) from equation(3)

8y = -8

divide both-side of the equation by 8

y = -1

Match the concept with its definition and characteristics. i. A set of instructions (codes) that perform a specific task. ii. A
kogti [31]

First definition matches with expression, second matches with equation ,third matches with algorithm and fourth matches with equation.

Given  four definitions of equation, expression, algorithm but mixed.

We have to match the definitions with appropriate term.

We know that expression is a combination of numbers, symbols, fraction, coefficients, indeterminants mostly not found in equal to form. It exhibits a behaviour only.

Algorithm is a computer programming to do a specific task in a predetermined way.

Equation is a relationship between two variables expressed in equal to form. In this we have to put the value of variables and the equation gives us a value.

Hence  First definition matches with expression, second matches with equation ,third matches with algorithm and fourth matches with equation.

Viktor [21]

A small company plans to invest in a new advertising campaign.

There is a 20% chance that the company will lose $5,000 ,

50% chance of a break even, and a 30% chance of a $10,000 profit


So the expected value from the advertisement campaign is calculated as - 20% of 5000 + 0% of 5000 + 30% of 10,000

= -1000 + 0 + 3000

= 2000


The expected value from the advertisement campaign is $2000.

So the Company must go ahead with the campaign.


Answer : Option A


Hope it helps.


Thank you ..!!
