Does it need to be simplified?
If yes, (42 divided by 3 = 14 3 divided by 3 =1) the answer is 14/1
If no, 42/9

There are nickels, dimes, quarters in a large piggy bank, for every 2 nickels there are 3 dimes, for every 2 dimes there are 5 q

Alex

There are 80 nickels and 120 dimes and 300 quarters in piggy bank

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

For every 2 nickels there are 3 dimes ,

So, ratio of nickel to dime will be 2 : 3

Also for every 2 dimes there are 5 quarters

So, ratio of dime to quarters is 2 : 5

Let us first find the ratio of nickles to dimes to quarters

nickel : dime = 2 : 3

dime : quarters = 2 : 5

$\frac{nickel}{dime} = \frac{2}{3}$

$nickel = \frac{2}{3} dime$

$\frac{dime}{quarter} = \frac{2}{5}$

$quarter = \frac{5}{2}dime$

So,

$nickel : dime : quarter = \frac{2}{3}dime : dime : \frac{5}{2}dime\\\\nickel : dime : quarter = \frac{2}{3} : 1 : \frac{5}{2}\\\\nickel : dime : quarter = 4 : 6 : 15$

Thus nickel : dime : quarters = 4 : 6 : 15

Now, let the number of nickel be 4x

Let the number of dimes be 6x

Let the number of quarters be 15x

From given question,

There are 500 coins in all.

number of nickel + number of dimes + number of quarters = 500

4x + 6x + 15x = 500

25x = 500

x = 20

Thus,

number of nickel = 4x = 4(20) = 80

number of dimes = 6x = 6(20) = 120

number of quarters = 15x = 15(20) = 300

Thus there are 80 nickels and 120 dimes and 300 quarters in piggy bank

Which graph best represents the download speed of a large file

stellarik [79]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete. However, there are mainly four types of graphical representations in mathematics; line graph, bar graph (and histogram), pie chart and cartesian graph. The most suitable representation for fluctuating data sets of the same variables on each of the y and x-axis is the line graph. Since download speed will fluctuate during the course of a download, the correct type of graph to be used here will be the line graph. And the exact type of line graph that will be used here is a simple line graph. A simple line graph is a type of line graph in which one line is drawn on the graph. A simple line graph is usually used to represent two variables (in this case data downloaded per time).

A hospital prepares a 100mg supply of technetium-99m which has a half-life of 6 hours. what is the decay factor?

SashulF [63]

For a half- life, the formula is
A(t) = A0(0.5)^( t / t_0.5)
where A(t) is the amount of substance at time t
A0 is the initial amount of subtance
t_0.5 is the time it will reduce its amount to half
t is the time

substitute the given to the formula
A(t) = 100(0.5)^( t/6 )
so the decay factor is 0.5^( t/6 )
