Gina has $72 in $1 bills, $5 bills, and $20 bills. If she has three times as many $1 bills as she has $5 bills, and only half as

many $20 bills as $5 bills, how many of each type of bill does each have?

Total number of bills Gina has = $72
Let the number of $5 bills =X
Number of $1 bills = 3X
Number of $20 bills = X/2
Then
X+3X+X/2=72
4X+X/2=72
8X/2+X/2=72
9X/2=72
X=72*2/9
X=16
So
The number of $5 bills = 16
The number of $1 bills = 48
The number of $20 bills = 8

Please give a simple summary of log functions.

Bess [88]

Logarithmic functions are the inverses of exponential functions. The inverse of the exponential funtion y = ax is x = ay. The logarithmic function y = logax is defined to be equivalent to the exponential equation x = ay. A logarithm is really nothing more than an exponent.

In the standard (x,y) coordinate plane a right triangle has vertices at (-3,4)(3,4)(3,-4) what is the length in coordinates unit

MAXImum [283]

Given:

The vertices of a right triangle are:

$(-3,4),(3,4),(3,-4)$

To find:

The length of the hypotenuse of the given right triangle.

Solution:

Let the vertices of the right triangle are $A(-3,4),B(3,4),C(3,-4)$ .

The distance formula is:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Using distance formula, we get

$AB=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(4-4)^2}$

$AB=\sqrt{(3+3)^2+(0)^2}$

$AB=\sqrt{(6)^2+0}$

$AB=\sqrt{36}$

$AB=6$

Similarly,

$BC=\sqrt{(3-3)^2+(-4-4)^2}$

$BC=\sqrt{(0)^2+(-8)^2}$

$BC=\sqrt{64}$

$BC=8$

And,

$AC=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(-4-4)^2}$

$AC=\sqrt{(6)^2+(-8)^2}$

$AC=\sqrt{36+64}$

$AC=\sqrt{100}$

$AC=10$

Now, taking sum of squares of two smaller sides, we get

$AB^2+BC^2=6^2+8^2$

$AB^2+BC^2=36+64$

$AB^2+BC^2=100$

$AB^2+BC^2=AC^2$

By the definition of the Pythagoras theorem, AC is the hypotenuse of the given triangle.

Therefore, the length of the hypotenuse is 10 units.

-5x+2y=6<br> -x+2y=-2 <br> what is the solution to the system of equations?

dybincka [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 5x + 2y = 6 \\ - x + 2y = - 2 \\ \\ - 5x + 2y - ( - x + 2y) = 6 - ( - 2) \\ - 5x + 2y + x - 2y = 6 + 2 \\ - 4x = 8 \\ \frac{ - 4x}{ - 4} = \frac{8}{ - 4 } \\ x = (- 2) \\ \\ -5x + 2y = 6 \\ - 5 \times - 2 + 2y = 6 \\ 10 + 2y = 6 \\ 2y = 6 - 10 \\ 2y = - 4 \\ \frac{2y}{2} = \frac{ - 4}{2} \\ y = - 2 \\ now \: lets \: see \: whether \\ this \: equation \: is \: correct. \\ - x + 2y = - 2 \\ - ( - 2) + 2 \times - 2 = - 2 \\ 2 + 2 \times - 2 = - 2 \\ 2 - 4 = - 2 \\ - 2 = - 2 \\ yes \: this \: equation \: is \\ correct.$
