Answer:

Barney got 14 dimes and Betty got 10 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are only dimes and quarters in the parking meter, the total money must be equal to:

0.1*dimes + 0.25*quarters = 3.9

Since Barney got all the dimes and he has four more coins than Betty, then the number of dimes is:

dimes = quarters + 4

Applying the second expression on the first, we have:

0.1*(quarters + 4) + 0.25*quarters = 3.9\\0.1*quarters + 0.4 + 0.25*quarters = 3.9\\0.35*quarters = 3.9 - 0.4\\0.35*quarters = 3.5\\quarters = \frac{3.5}{0.35} = 10

dimes = quarters + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14

Barney got 14 dimes and Betty got 10 quarters.

Y varies directly as x squared. y is 18 when x is 3. Find y if x is 4. Any help? thanks ​
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∝ x^2

Introducing the proportionality constant, we have  

y = kx^2

Given : y= 18 when x = 3

substitute the given values in order to get the constant

i.e 18 = k x 3^2

     18 = 9k

      k = 2

therefore the formula connecting  x and y

⇒ y = 2x^2

To find y if x is 4, just substitute x = 4 into the formula connecting x and y

i.e y = 2 x 4^2

       = 2 x 16

       = 32
