Let our basis be worth 1 dollar. A nickel's worth is $0.05. In order to come up with $1, the number of nickels should be:
Number of nickels = $1 * 1 nickel/$0.05 = 20 nickels
Thickness of 20 nickels = 20 nickels * 1.95 mm = 39 mm
Let's do the same for the quarters. Each quarter is worth $0.25.
Number of quarters = $1 * 1 quarter/$0.25 = 4 quarters
Thickness of 4 quarters = 4 quarters * 1.75 mm = 7 mm
Find the ratio of the two:
39 mm/7 mm = 5.57
Therefore, a stack of nickels is 5.57 times thicker than a stack of quarters worth one dollar.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Option A. All the real values of x where x < -1
Procedure
Solve the inequality:
(x -3)(x+1)>0
That happens in two cases.
1) When both factors >0
x-3>0 and x+1>0
x>3 and x >-1
The intersection is x >3
2) When both factors <0
x-3<0 and x+1<0
x<3 and x<-1
the intersection is x<-1.
We have obtained that the function is positive for the intervals x < -1 and x > 3. But in one of those intervals the function is decresing and in the other is increasing.
You can recognize that the function given is a parabola and, because the coefficient of the quadratic term is positive, the parabola opens upward. Then the function is decreasing in the first interval and increasing in the second interval.
Answer:
She is wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean score is
7 + 8 + 3 + 0 + 2= 20
We then divide it by the number which is 5
20/5= 4.
Therefore, Maria is wrong.
This is because she divided by 4 instead of 5, as she didn't include the rational number 0.
Answer:
D . . . (it represents a quadratic function)
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-values are 1 unit apart for all values in all tables, making the problem much simpler. All you need to do is find the table where the y-value differences are not the same from one line to the next.
In table A, y-values decrease by 3.
In table B, y-values increase by 5.
In table C, y-values increase by 1.
In table D, y-values increase by 3, 2, 1—numbers that are not constant. (These differences decrease by 1, a number that *is* constant. Since the 2nd differences are constant, the table represents a 2nd degree function.)
