Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
Answer:
About 1.23 standard deviation above the mean
Step-by-step explanation:
From what we have here, we need to calculate the difference between the given value and the mean and divide by the standard deviation
That would be through calculating the z score as follows;
z-score = (x - mean)/SD
where x is the given value
z-score = (87-71)/13 = 1.23
Since the score is bigger than the mean, the correct choice here is that the score is about 1.23 standard deviation above the mean
15c+10d that’s the answer
Answer:
14:2 - 14 parts water and 2 parts salt
Step-by-step explanation:
The original ratio was 7:1. So, that means if you added another part to the salt it would make 2. That means that the 7 parts of water would become 14 parts. Since the ratio of the salt part was doubled from 1 to 2, you would have to do the same with the water ratio part. Hoped this helped!
The answer is +17 or just 17 :)
