Answer:there are 21 twenties and 8 fifties in the drawer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bills that are twenties in the drawer.

Let y represent the number of bills that are fifties in the drawer.

The cash drawer contains 29 bills. All twenties and fifties. This means that

x + y = 29

If the total value of the bills is $820, it means that

20x + 50y = 820 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 29 - y

20(29 - y) + 50y = 820

580 - 20y + 50y = 820

- 20y + 50y = 820 - 580

30y = 240

y = 240/30 = 8

x = 29 - y = 29 - 8

x = 21

Answer:

There are 21 twenties and 8 fifties in the drawer.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of twenties

y is the number of fifties.

A cash drawer contains 29 bills.

This means that x + y = 29.

The total value of the bills is $820.

This means that 20x + 50y = 820.

So

x + y = 29

20x + 50y = 820

From the first equation, x = 29 - y. So:

20x + 50y = 820

20(29 - y) + 50y = 820

580 - 20y + 50y = 820

30y = 240

y = 8

And

x = 29 - y = 29 - 8 = 21

There are 21 twenties and 8 fifties.

I need help with rational and irrational numbers here is the question.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The correct answer choices are:

1) It is a real number

2) It is an irrational number

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the number:

\sqrt2

First, let's define each of the terms:

Real numbers are all of the irrational and rational numbers. If a number is irrational or rational, then they are a real number. Any number that does not include the imaginary number i is real (you'll learn this eventually. It's actually really interesting!).

Irrational numbers are the numbers that do not terminate nor repeat. Examples include π or √3. Note that numbers like 1/3 which is .3333 is <em>not </em>irrational because they are repeating. π, on the other hand, does not repeat and never ends.

Rational numbers are the numbers that terminate or repeat. They also include the integers, whole numbers, and natural numbers.

So, the √2. First, it's real because it doesn't deal with imaginaries.

Next, use a calculator and calculate √2. We can see that it is about 1.41423562... This number does not repeat. And it does not terminate (end). In other words, √2 is a irrational numbers.

Since it is irrational, it cannot be rational. Since it's not rational, it cannot be an integer, whole number, or a natural number.

Therefore, the correct answer choices are:

1) It is a real number

2) It is an irrational number

find the value of an investment of $3500 for 3 years at an interest rate of 5.6% if the money is compounded weekly
sergeinik [125]
\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}&#10;\\\\&#10;A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}&#10;\quad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\&#10;P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$3500\\&#10;r=rate\to 5.6\%\to \frac{5.6}{100}\to &0.056\\&#10;n=&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;\textit{times it compounds per year}\\&#10;\textit{weekly, thus fifty two}&#10;\end{array}\to &52\\&#10;t=years\to &3&#10;\end{cases}

\bf A=3500\left(1+\frac{0.056}{52}\right)^{52\cdot 3}\implies A=3500\left( \frac{6507}{6500} \right)^{156}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;A\approx 4139.9038869337

Which statement about this system of equations is true? A. The system has no solution. B. The system has a unique solution at (0
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

A. The system has no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Check to see if the 2 lines share 1 slope

slope of blue line = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{7-6}{3-0}=\frac{1}{3}

slope of red line = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{-3-(-4)}{3-0}=\frac{1}{3}

Step 2: Realize that lines with the same slope never touch

We know lines with the same slope are parallel to each other so they won't collide

Step 3: Know what the question is asking you

When they ask for solutions to the system of equations they are asking you to find out where they intersect

Step 4: Find answer

Because we know this is a parallel line they will never intersect causing this system to never have an answer or solution

Therefore the answer is A. The system has no solutions
