Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x.
Then by the question,
2x+4 = 3x-7
x=11
8. The y-intercept is -10. You can find this by just seeing where the line would hit the y-axis. This is basically the starting point so the Scuba Diver's decent started at -10m.
9. You have the y-intercept so put that in slope-intercept form. y=mx+b
y=mx - 10
Now find the slope by picking two points and using the slope formula. I'll use
(30,-6) and (50,-4), and then plug in the values. 30 = x1, -6 = x2, 50 = x2, -4 = -4. Simplify.
m= y2-y1 -4 - (-6) 2 1
-------- = ----------- = --- / 2 = ---
x2-x1 50 - 30 20 10
A dime = 0.10
A nickel = 0.05
N + D = 28 coins
Rewrite this as N = 28 -D
0.10D + 0.05N = 1.95
Replace N withe the rewritten equation above:
0.10D + 0.05(28-D) = 1.95
Use the Distributive Property:
0.10D + 1.4 - 0.05D = 1.94
Add the like terms:
0.05D + 1.4 = 1.95
Subtract 1.4 from both sides:
0.05D = 0.55
Divide both sides by 0.05
D = 0.55 / 0.05
D = 11
Nickels = 28 - 11 = 17
There are 11 dimes and 17 nickels.
Answer: B is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
if you do 2 ÷ 5 you get 0.4. But that isn't an option. So, the only other possibility would be -2 ÷ 5 which gives us -0.4, and that makes sense.
I'm not the greatest at explaining this one but hopefully, this helps!
