x-\ number\ of\ dimes\\y-\ number\ of\ quarters\\\\ \left \{ {{x+y=250\ \ \ | x=250-y} \atop {0.1x+0.25y=39.25\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ }} \right. \\\\ substitution\ method\\\\
0.1(250-y)+0.25y=39.25\\\\
25-0.1y+0.25y=39.25\\\\
25+0.15y=39.25\ \ \ \ | subtract\ 25\\\\0.15y=14.25\ \ \ \ | divide\ by\ 0.15\\\\y=95\\\\x=250-95=
155\\\\
There\ are\ 155\ dimes\ and\ 95\ quarters.

Mary walks from comer D to comer E to comer F on a city block that measures 264 feet wide and 900 feet long. Kate walks
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Difference between the distances traveled by Mary and Kate = 226 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying Pythagoras theorem in right ΔDEF,

(DE)² + (EF)² = (DF)²

By substituting DE = 264 feet and EF = 900 feet

(264)² + (900)² = (DF)²

DF = √(69696+810000)

     = √879696

     = 937.92

Distance traveled by Kate diagonally = 938 feet

Distance traveled by Mary = DE + EF

                                            = 264 + 900

                                            = 1164 feet

Difference between the distances traveled by Mary and Kate = DF - (DE + EF)

= 1164 - 937.92

= 226.07

≈ 226 feet

What is the measure of angle B in the triangle?<br>will give brainliest
spayn [35]
The angles of a triangle always add up to 180°.

120 + x + 16 + x = 180

Add up the values.

136 + 2x = 180

Subtract 136 from both sides.

2x = 44

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 22
