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.

alisha [4.7K]
Hi there!

Here is what the rules says

+ * + = +  (Plus times plus = plus)
+*- = - (Plus times minus = minus)
- * - = + (Minus times minus = Plus
- * + = -  (minus times plus = minus)

You need to know the rules by heart because you will use it a lot.

So let see how it works with the problem

6 -(-7)
What does the rules say? It says
- * - = plus  
So, we gonna use PLUS for the sign
6-(-7) = 6 + 7 = 13

13 is the correct answer.

I hope I helped. Please let me know if you have more questions.

Amanda purchased a 30 year $10,000 bond at par value with a 4% coupon. What is the total value of the coupons
klasskru [66]

Amanda purchased a 30 year $10,000 bond at par value with a 4% coupon.

We find the coupon amount each year

Coupon amount = actual amount of bond * 4%

= 10,000 * 0.04 = 400

Coupon amount for every year = 400

Total value of coupons for 30 years = 400 * 30 = 12000

$12,000 is the total value of the coupons
