Answer:
17 + 3n
Step-by-step explanation:
20, 23,26 ..............
This is an arithmetic series
First term = a = 20
Common difference = second term - first term
d = 23 - 20 = 3
nth terms = a + (n-1)*d
= 20 + (n -1) *3
= 20 + n*3 - 1*3
= 20 + 3n - 3
= 20 - 3 + 3n
= 17 + 3n
Set up
Let the dimes = d
Let the pennies = p
Let the quarters = q
Equations
You cannot mean that the pennies and dimes have equal numbers. That would mean that each had 21.5 members. Now could you mean that the dime and penny amount could be the same with 43 coins that total 4.00. Four dollars means that you need 40 dimes alone. It must mean that you are including quarters.
p + d + p = 43 (1)
p = d (2)
p +10d +25q = 451 (3)
Note how this last equation = was derived. You have to multiply the dimes by 10 and he quarters by 100 and the total by 100 to get the numbers all in pennies.
Put the results of 2 into 1.
2p + q = 43 (4)
You need to modify equation 3 as well.
p + 10p + 25q = 451
11p + 25q = 451 (5)
Solve the new equations
2p + q = 43 (4)
11p + 25q = 451 (5)
Multiply 4 by 25
25(2p- + q = 43)
50p + 25q = 1075 (6) Subtract (5) from (6)
<u>11p + 25q = 451
</u>39p = 624 Divide by 39
p = 624 / 39
p = 16
Since the pennies and dimes are equal there are 16 dimes
p + d + q = 43
16 + 16 + q = 43
32 + q = 43
q = 11
Check
16 + 10*16 + 11*25 = ?
16 + 160 + 275 = ?
451 = ?
Nice problem. Thanks for posting.
Answer:
-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
10/100=0.1
1/4=0.25
0.1*0.25=0.025
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Equation of a circle</u>
where:
- (a, b) is the center
- r is the radius
From inspection of the diagram, the center of the circle <em>appears</em> to be at point (-3, 2), although this is not very clear. Therefore, a = -3 and b = 2.
Substitute these values into the general form of the equation of a circle:
Again, from inspection of the diagram, the <u>maximum vertical point</u> of the circle appears to be at y = 5. Therefore, to calculate the radius, subtract the y-value of the center point from the y-value of the maximum vertical point:
⇒ radius (r) = 5 - 2 = 3
Substitute the found value of r into the equation:
Therefore, the final equation of the given circle is:
