A) N + D = 30
B) .05N + .1D = 2.20

Multiplying equation A by -.05
A) -.05N  -.05D = -1.50 then adding it to B
B) .05N + .1D = 2.20
.05D = .70
Dimes = 14

Nickels = 30 -14 = 16

Answer:

The number of nickels are 16 and the number of dimes are 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Let n represent the number of nickels.

let d represent the number of dimes.

As given

Luis is saving money to purchase a new video game.

He has a total of 30 coins consisting of nickels and dimes.

Than the equation becomes

n + d = 30

As the value of the coins is $2.20.

As 1 nickel = 0.05 dollars

    1 dimes = 0.1 dollars

Than the equation becomes

0.05n + 0.1d = 2.20

Simplify the above

\frac{5n}{100} +\frac{d}{10} = \frac{220}{100}

L.C.M of (10,100) = 100

Than

5n + 10d = 220

Than two equations are

n + d = 30 and 5n + 10d = 220

Multiply n + d = 30 by 5 and subtracted from  5n + 10d = 220 .

5n - 5n + 10d - 5d = 220 - 150

5d = 70

d = \frac{70}{5}

d = 14

Put in the equation n + d = 30

n + 14 = 30

n = 30 - 14

n = 16

Therefore the number of nickels are 16 and the number of dimes are 14.

A financial advisor is analyzing a family's estate plan. The amount of money that the family has invested in different real esta
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> represent the amount of money that the family has invested in different real estate properties.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with parameters <em>μ</em> = $225,000 and <em>σ</em> = $50,000.

It is provided that the family has invested in <em>n</em> = 10 different real estate properties.

Then the mean and standard deviation of amount of money that the family has invested in these 10 different real estate properties is:

\mu_{\bar x}=\mu=\$225,000\\\\\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{50000}{\sqrt{10}}=15811.39

Now the lowest 80% of the amount invested can be represented as follows:

P(\bar X

The value of <em>z</em> is 0.84.

*Use a <em>z</em>-table.

Compute the value of the mean amount invested as follows:

\bar x=\mu_{\bar x}+z\cdot \sigma_{\bar x}

   =225000+(0.84\times 15811.39)\\\\=225000+13281.5676\\\\=238281.5676\\\\\approx 238281.57

Thus, the amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.
