Lizzie has 18 dimes and 12 quarters

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "d" be the number of dimes

Let "q" be the number of quarters

We know that,

value of 1 dime = $ 0.10

value of 1 quarter = $ 0.25

Given that LIzzie has 30 coins

number of dimes + number of quarters = 30

d + q = 30 ---- eqn 1

Also given that the coins total $ 4.80

number of dimes x  value of 1 dime + number of quarters x  value of 1 quarter = 4.80

d \times 0.10 + q \times 0.25 = 4.80

0.1d + 0.25q = 4.8 ------ eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

From eqn 1,

d = 30 - q ---- eqn 3

Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2

0.1(30 - q) + 0.25q = 4.8

3 - 0.1q + 0.25q = 4.8

0.15q = 1.8

<h3>q = 12</h3>

From eqn 3,

d = 30 - 12

<h3>d = 18</h3>

Thus she has 18 dimes and 12 quarters

Find the center, vertices, and foci of the ellipse with equation x squared divided by 400 plus y squared divided by 625 = 1
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

x^2/400 + x^2/625

(x-0)^2/400) +(y-0^2/625)

x^2=400

X=sqrt. 400

x = 20

y^2=625

y = sqrt. 625

y= 25

a^2-c^2=b^2

sqrt 400-625 = c

20-25=c

The correct answer is c=-5

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the average number of years until the first major repair is (3.1, 3.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for the average using the finite correction factor is:

CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{N-n}{N-1}}

The information provided is:

N=1500\\n=183\\\sigma=1.47\\\bar x=3.3

The critical value of <em>z</em> for 95% confidence level is,

<em>z</em> = 1.96

Compute the 95% confidence interval for the average number of years until the first major repair as follows:

CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\cdot\sqrt{\frac{N-n}{N-1}}

     =3.3\pm 1.96\times\frac{1.47}{\sqrt{183}}\times\sqrt{\frac{1500-183}{1500-1}}\\\\=3.3\pm 0.19964\\\\=(3.10036, 3.49964)\\\\\approx (3.1, 3.5)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the average number of years until the first major repair is (3.1, 3.5).

35 because if you half the amount of salads he's eaten (seeing as he eats one burger for every two salads) then the extra one is the first salad in the cycle.
