Answer:

Gabby received

7 nickels

10 dimes

3 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the number of dimes

y----> the number of nickels

z---> the number of quarters

Remember that

1 dime=$0.10

1 nickel=$0.05

1 quarter=$0.25

we know that

0.10x+0.05y+0.25z=2.10 ------> equation A

x=y+3-----> equation B

z=y-4 -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y

0.10(y+3)+0.05y+0.25(y-4)=2.10

0.10y+0.30+0.05y+0.25y-1=2.10

0.40y=2.10-0.30+1

0.40y=2.80

y=7 nickels

<em>Find the value of x</em>

x=y+3 -----> x=7+3=10 dimes

<em>Find the value of z</em>

z=y-4 -----> z=7-4=3 quarters

therefore

Gabby received

7 nickels

10 dimes

3 quarters

Choose all that give the correct equation of the line parallel or perpendicular to the given line passing through the point.
andriy [413]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines are lines which have the same slope. Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

For the options:

A. Both equations have 7/5 as the slope. They are parallel.

B. The slopes are 1 and -1. These are perpendicular.

C. The slopes are 9/2 and are parallel.

D. The slopes are 7/3 and -3/7. They are perpendicular.

Write the equation of a straight line passing through the point (1,8) and perpendicular to y=3x+2
Neko [114]
Hello there!

The first thing you must do is to find the slope of the line. To do this, find the negative reciprocal of your current equation. Since your current slope is 3, the negative reciprocal of that would be -1/3, which would be your slope.

Now that you have your slope, plug it into the slope intercept equation as well as your known points:
(1,8)  m(slope)=-1/3
8=1(-1/3)+b

Now, solve for b:
8=1(-1/3)+b
8=-1/3+b
b=25/3

Now that you have the slope and the b value, you can conclude that your equation would be:
y=-1/3x+25/3
