Madi has $8.80 in pennies and nickels.

1 answer:

7 0

Let p = number of pennies.
Let n = number of nickels.

We are given that n= 2p and the total value is $8.80.

We know that a penny = $0.01 and that a nickel = $0.05.

So $0.01p + $0.05n = $8.80.

Substitute 2p for n:
$0.01p + $0.05*2p = $8.80

$0.01p + $0.10p = $8.80

$0.11p = $8.80

p = 80
So n = 2p = 2*80 = 160

Thus there are 80 pennies ($0.8) and 160 nickels ($8.00). The value of all the coins is $8.80.

34. The diagram shows a sector of a circle of radius 10 cm.

Sergio [31]

Answer:

rc length = 10 * 8pi/5

= 16pi

This is the circumference of the base

(a) 2pir = 16pi where r = radius of base

2r = 16

r = 8 cm

(b) 10^2 = h^2 + 8^2

h^2 = 100 - 64

= 36

h = 6 cm

Suppose the probability of an irs audit is 2.8 percent for U.S. taxpayers who file form 1040 and who earn 100,000 or more. What

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

So, the odds that a taxpayer would be audited 28 to 972 or 2.88%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let P(A) = Probability of irs auditing

P(A) = 2.8%

Let n = number of those who earn above 100,000

To get the odds that taxpayer would be audited, we need to first calculated the proportion of those that will be audited and those that won't.

If the probability is 2.8% then 2.8 out of 100 will be audited. That doesn't make a lot of sense since you can't have 2.8 people; we multiply the by 10/10

i.e.

Proportion, P = 2.8/100 * 10/10

P = 28/1000

The proportion of those that would not be audited is calculated as follows;

Q = 1000 - P

By substituton

Q = 1000 - 28

Q = 972

So, the odds that a taxpayer would be audited 28 to 972 or P/Q

P/Q = 28/972

= 0.0288065844

= 2.88% --- Approximately

What is true of the graph of two lines 3y-8=-5x and 6y=-10x+16

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Both lines are equal (they are the same)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3y - 8 = -5x$

$6y = -10x + 16$

Required

What is true about graph of both lines

Questions like this are better solved when there's option(s) to select from. However, some of the properties of line equation that I'll consider are to check if both lines are either parallel or perpendicular

To do this,

The first thing to do is to calculate the slope of both lines

$3y - 8 = -5x$

Add 8 to both sides

$3y - 8 + 8 = -5x + 8$

$3y = -5x + 8$

Divide both sided by 3

$\frac{3y}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

The slope of the line is the coefficient of x;

$Slope = -\frac{5}{3}$

Solve for the y intercept; Let x = 0

$y = -\frac{5 * 0}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = 0 + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3}$

Solve for the x intercept; Let y = 0

$0 = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

Subtract $\frac{8}{3}$ from both sides

$0 - \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3}$

Subtract both sides by $-\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} * -\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{8}{5} = x$

$x = \frac{8}{5}$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$6y = -10x + 16$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6y}{6} = -\frac{10x}{6} + \frac{16}{6}$

$y = -\frac{10x}{6} + \frac{16}{6}$

Simplify fractions to lowest term

$y = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

The slope of the line is the coefficient of x;

$Slope = -\frac{5}{3}$

Solve for the y intercept; Let x = 0

$y = -\frac{5 * 0}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = 0 + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3}$

Solve for the x intercept; Let y = 0

$0 = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

Subtract $\frac{8}{3}$ from both sides

$0 - \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3}$

Subtract both sides by $-\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} * -\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{8}{5} = x$

$x = \frac{8}{5}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By comparing the slope, x intercept and y intercept of both lines;

It'll be observed that they have the same slope, x intercept and y intercept

This implies that both lines are equal; in other words, they are the same.
