Step 1
find the volume of sand
volume of sand=8*20*3------------>Volume of sand=480 in³
Volume of sand in the new terrarium=10*24*h
where
h------------> is the <span>deep in the new terrarium
</span>remember that
the volume of sand is the same
so
10*24*h=480----------> h=480/(10*24)-----------> h=2 in
the answer is 2 in
Let d = number of dimes, q = number of quarters
<span>Sally has 20 coins in her piggy bank, so </span>
<span>d + q = 20 </span>
<span>The total amount of money is $3.05. </span>
<span>Use the value of each coin multiplied by its number to get total value </span>
<span>.10d + .25q = 3.05 </span>
<span>multiply everything by 100 to clear the decimal places </span>
<span>10d + 25q = 305 and </span>
<span>d + q = 20 </span>
<span>solve the second equation above in terms of either d or q - lets do d </span>
<span>d = 20 - q </span>
<span>sub that into the first equation </span>
<span>10d + 25q = 305 </span>
<span>10(20 - q) + 25q = 305 </span>
<span>200 - 10q + 25q = 305 </span>
<span>15q = 105 </span>
<span>q = 105/15 = 7 </span>
<span>and from above </span>
<span>d = 20 - q = 20 - 7 = 13 </span>
<span>so, there are 13 dimes and 7 quarters </span>
<span>verify with orig problem </span>
<span>13 + 7 = 20, OK, and $1.30 + $1.75 = $3.05
</span>
I don't seem to comprehend what you are asking?
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "The reason for the difference can not be determined with the information that is given." Looking at the scatter plot of pages versus amazon price, it appears that the data might be clustered around two separate regression lines. The cause of the split in the data is that <span> the difference can not be determined with the information that is given</span>
