So Maurice would have 2N nickels  

Total number of coins is N + 2N + 9 = 3N + 9  

Each nickel is 5 pennies  

3N of nickels = 15N pennies  

-----------  

Their worth is 84 cents  

15N + 9 = 84  

15N = 75  

N = 75/15 = 5  

N = 5  


This means Nina has 5 nickels.

Which linear equation best represents the line of best fit for the scatterplot?
Lena [83]

Answer:

y = -\frac{1}{3}x

Step-by-step explanation:

The scatter plot trends downward from left-> right, meaning that it is negative. Next, use two points to solve for the value for the slope.

In this case, I will use (-3 , 1) & (0 , 0)

Use the following equation. m = slope:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Let:

(x_1 , y_1) = (0 , 0)\\(x_2 , y_2) = (-3 , 1)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

m = \frac{1 - 0}{-3 - 0} = \frac{1}{-3} = -\frac{1}{3}

Your answer will be:

y = -\frac{1}{3}x

A product is now £50, the product was reduced by 20%, what was the original price
olga nikolaevna [1]

the original price is "x", or 100%.

but we know that if we reduce "x" by 20%, namely 100% - 20% = 80%, the 80% of "x" is really £50, what is "x" or the 100% anyway?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 50&80 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{50}=\cfrac{100}{80}\implies \cfrac{x}{50}=\cfrac{5}{4}\implies 4x=250 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{250}{4}\implies x=62.5
