Answer:

3 rolls of dimes and 4 rolls of nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of rolls of dimes = x

Number of rolls of nickels = y

Total number of rolls = 7

x + y = 7 -------------------(i)

Total amount = $ 23

5x + 2y = 23 ----------------(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by -2. So when we are adding, y will be eliminated and you will get the number of rolls of dimes.

(i)*(-2) -2x - 2y = -14

(ii) <u>5x + 2y = 23</u> {Now add}

3x = 9

x = 9/3

x = 3

Plug in the value of x in equation (i)

3 +y = 7

y = 7- 3

y = 4

A horse can run 1 3/8 of a mile in 1 3/5 minute. How long does it take the horse to run 1 mile?

So what i would personally do first is convert the fractions into decimals.

1 3/8= 11/8= 1.375 of a mile

1 3/5= 8/5 =1.6 of a minute

Now we find the rate of change

user100 [1]

Answer:

Part (A) The required volume of the column is $s^2h$ .

Part (B) The volume be $s^2h=\frac{s^2h}{2}+\frac{s^2h}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the we have a square with side length "s" lies in a plane perpendicular to a line L.

Also One vertex of the square lies on L.

Part (A)

Suppose there is a square piece of a paper which is attached with a wire through one corner. As you blow it up it spins around on the wire.

This square moves a distance h along L, and generate a corkscrew-like column with square.

The cross section will remain the same.

So the cross section area of original column and the cross section area of twisted column at each point will be the same.

The volume of the column is the area of square times the height.

This can be written as:

$s^2h$

Hence, the required volume of the column is $s^2h$ .

Part (B) What will the volume be if the square turns twice instead of once?

If the square turns twice instead of once then the volume will remains the same but divide the volume into two equal part.

$s^2h=\frac{s^2h}{2}+\frac{s^2h}{2}$

Hence, the volume be $s^2h=\frac{s^2h}{2}+\frac{s^2h}{2}$ .
