There are 55 quarters and 30 dimes in the machine.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total coins = 85

Total amount = $16.75 = 16.75*100 = 1675 cents

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

According to given statement;

x+y=85    Eqn 1

25x+10y=1675   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 10

10(x+y=85)\\10x+10y=850\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(25x+10y)-(10x+10y)=1675-850\\25x+10y-10x-10y=825\\15x=825

Dividing both sides by 15

\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{825}{15}\\x=55

Putting in Eqn 1;

55+y=85\\y=85-55\\y=30

There are 55 quarters and 30 dimes in the machine.

Para festeja su cumpleaños,Nancy compró 15 paquetes de pizzetas. Si cocinó 288 pizzetas, cuántos paquetes completos le quedaron?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Nancy consumió 12 paquetes de pizzetas y le quedaron 3 paquetes completos.

Step-by-step explanation:

En primer lugar, debemos descomponer el número total de pizzas como una multiplicación de números primos. Al realizar la descomposición factorial tenemos que:

288 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3

Entonces, los familia de divisores de 288 es el siguiente conjunto:

D_{288} = \{2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 32, 36, 48, 72, 96, 144 \}

Si tanto la cantidad de paquetes de pizzetas y la cantidad cocinada de pizzetas son números enteros y positivos, siendo la última mucho mayor. Entonces, la cantidad de pizzetas debe ser un número entero y la cantidad de paquetes gastados menor a la cantidad de paquetes comprados y el número entero más cercano a esa cantidad. Entonces, concluimos que Nancy se gastó 12 paquetes de pizzetas, quedándole 3 paquetes completos.
