Answer:

5(x +2) + 10x = 115

Number of nickels = 9 and dimes = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of nickels a man has = y

and dimes = x

Then by the statement of the question we can form the equation as

y = x + 2------(1)

(.05)y + (.10)x = 1.15------(2)

By multiplying equation 2 by 100

5y + 10x = 115-----(3)

Now we put the value of y from equation 1 in the equation 3

5(x + 2) + 10x = 115

5x + 10 + 10x = 115

15x + 10 = 115

15x = 105

x = 7

y = 7 + 2 = 9

Number of nickels = 9 and dimes = 7

The equation (x + 6)^2 + (y + 4)^2 = 36 models the position and range of the source of a radio signal. Describe the position of
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

position: (-6, -4)

range: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is that of a circle centered at (-6, -4) with a radius of √36 = 6. We presume that the "position" is that of the circle's center, and the "range" is the radius of the circle.

___

The standard form equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is ...

(x -h)^2 +(y -k)^2 = r^2

Matching parts of the equation, we find ...

h = -6, k = -4, r = √36 = 6.

Paul is spreading grass seed on an area of his lawn that is 9 feet wide and 10 feet long. A bag of grass seed covers 15 square f
aksik [14]
Area of the field should be 9*10 = 90 square feet.
a bag of grass seeds cover 15 square feet.
so if you need to know how many bags should be used, then,
Total area of field/ area covered by 1 bag of grass seeds.
= 90/15 = 6 bags
he needs to use 6 bags of grass seeds to cover the whole field.
I don't think there are any 'hidden' questions, though you can consider the 2nd part of the question I guess. (how many bags of seed will Paul...)
