Answer:

16 Nickles and 14 Dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know

n + d = 30
.05n + .1d = 2.2 (total change equals $2.20)

(.05n + 0.1d = 2.2) -10
-.5n - d = -22
.5n = 8
n = 16

The parent absolute value function is

$y = |x|$

Among the given options, a V-shaped graph is

$y = |x - 2|$

This graph is obtained by shifting the parent absolute value function 2 units right.

Please help! what equation best models this data?

kolezko [41]

Answer:

P = 309.35 + 2.31t

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between the population of the USA and the time in years after 2010 will be linear as the increase in population is constant for every year since 2010 which is 2.31 million.

So, we can model the population P in million as a function of time(t) in years since 2010 as

P = 309.35 + 2.31t ....... (1)

Now, for t = 0 i.e. in the year 2010, the population will be obtained from equation (1) to be 309.35 million.

Find the inverse of the matrix <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-4%266%5C%5C8%26-12%5C%5C%

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is a 2x2 matrix as $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\\\end{array}\right]$

The determinant is given by $\frac{1}{ad-bc}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}d&-b\\-c&a\\\end{array}\right]$

<em>Now, if we calculate the value of "ad - bc", we see that:</em>

$(-4)(-12)-(8)(6)=0$

We can't calculate the inverse, the inverse doesn't exist. The answer is D.
