Answer:
37 dimes and 10 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
let d = # dimes
let n = # nickels
we can set up a system of equations:
n + d = 47
.05n + .10d = 4.2
if we solve the first equation for 'n' we get:
n = 47-d
now we can substitute this in for 'n' in the second equation:
.05(47-d) + .10d = 4.2
2.35 - .05d + .10d = 4.2
2.35 + .05d = 4.2
subtract 2.35 from each side to get:
.05d = 1.85
d = 1.85÷.05
d = 37
if d+n = 47 and d=37 then n = 10
Check:
.05(10) + .1(37) should equal 4.2
.50 + 3.7 = 4.2 [It Checks Out]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
$ 8 admission and $ 2 a ride
y = 2x + 8.....where y is the total cost and x is the # of rides
table :
x = 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ,5 , 6
y = 10, 12 , 14, 16 , 18 , 20
Step-by-step explanation:
y — yı = m(x – xı) equation of a line
Points A(1,3) and B(2,1)
Slope (m) = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
(1 –3) / (2 – 1)
–2/1
–2
Thus, y –3 = –2 (x – 1)
y – 3 = –2x + 2
y –3 + 3 = –2x + 2 + 3
y = –2x + 5
Not enough information to "solve for X and Y". it can be a number of things; 1 and 1. 0 and 2. -1 and 3. There is no solving unless there is more information
Answer:
y = 2x + 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out known variables
y = mx + b
m = 2
y = 2x + b
Step 2: Find <em>b</em>
9 = 2(-6) + b
9 = -12 + b
b = 21
Step 3: Rewrite linear equation
y = 2x + 21
