Ginny's piggybank contained $8.80 in quarters, dimes, and nickels. there were two more than five times as many nickels as quarte

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

There are 13 quarters, 67 nickels, and 22 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of a quarter is $0.25, the value of dime is $0.10, and the value of a nickel is $0.05. Let there be q quarters, n nickels, and d dimes.

Let's write equations from the statements given:

"Ginny's piggybank contained $8.80 in quarters, dimes, and nickels.":

$0.25q+0.1d+0.05n=8.80$

"there were two more than five times as many nickels as quarters":

$5q+2=n$

"4 less than twice as many dimes as quarters":

$2q-4=d$

Plugging in equation 2 and 3 into equation 1, we can solve for q:

$0.25q+0.1(2q-4)+0.05(5q+2)=8.80\\0.25q+0.2q-0.4+0.25q+0.1=8.80\\0.7q=8.80+0.4-0.1\\0.7q=9.1\\q=\frac{9.1}{0.7}=13$

Substituting q = 13 into equation 2 will give us nickels:

$n=5q+2\\n=5(13)+2\\n=67$

Substituting q = 13 into equation 3 will give us dimes:

$d=2q-4\\d=2(13)-4\\d=22$

There are 13 quarters, 67 nickels, and 22 dimes.

What multiples to 42 and adds to -2

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

xy = 42

x+y = - 2 Substitute into the top equation

y = -2 - x Put in for y

x(-2 - x) = 42 Remove the brackets

-2x - x^2 = 42 Subtract 42 from both sides.

-2x - x^2 - 42 = 0 Put in the more normal order.

-x^2 - 2x - 42 = 0 Multiply by -1

x^2 + 2x + 42 = 0

This cannot be factored. It gives complex roots as it is written. I will give you the answer but I kind of doubt the question is correct.

x1 = - 1 + 6.40i

x2 = -1 - 6.40i

Leave a comment if you have a correction.

Find the volume of a pyramid with a square base, where the side length of the base is

valina [46]

Answer:

Volume = 1114.1 $in^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the formula for the volume of a pyramid is given by:

$Volume=\frac{1}{3} \,B\,*\,H$

where B is the area of the pyramid's base (in our case a square of side 12,8 in), and H the pyramid's height (in our case 20.4 in).

Then the square base of the pyramid has an area given by: $(12.8\,\,in)^2=163.84\,\,in^2$

Finally,we can now write the volume of the pyramid as:

$Volume=\frac{1}{3} \,B\,*\,H\\Volume=\frac{1}{3} \,(163.84)\,*\,20.4\,\,in^3\\Volume=1114.112\,\,in^3$

Rounding the answer to a tenth of a cubic inch, we get:

Volume = 1114.1 $in^3$

Write the multiplicative inverse of a) -13/19

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

$- \frac{19}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$the \: multiplicative \: inverse \: of \: \\ - \frac{13}{19} = - \frac{19}{13}$

Product of a number and its multiplicative inverse should be equal to 1.

So,

$\bigg ( - \frac{13}{19} \bigg) \bigg ( - \frac{19}{13} \bigg)$

$= \frac{13}{19}\times \frac{19}{13}$

$=1$
