There are 7 dimes and 9 quarters Jayden has.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of dimes and quarters = $2.95 = 2.95*100 = 295 cents

One dime = 10 cents

One quarter = 25 cents

Let,

x be the number of dimes

y be the number of quarters

According to given statement;

10x+25y=295       Eqn 1

y = x+2                  Eqn 2

Putting value of y from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

10x+25(x+2)=295\\10x+25x+50=295\\35x=295-50\\35x=245

Dividing both sides by 35

\frac{35x}{35}=\frac{245}{35}\\x=7

Putting x=7 in Eqn 2

y=7+2\\y=9

There are 7 dimes and 9 quarters Jayden has.

Use the identity (x+y)(x^2−xy+y^2)=x^3+y^3 to find the sum of two numbers if the product of the numbers is 28, the sum of the sq
lara31 [8.8K]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have xy = 28, x² + y² = 65 and x³ + y³ = 407.

Since (x + y)(x² - xy + y²) = x³ + y³,

x + y = (x³ + y³)/(x² + y² - xy)

= (407) / [(65) - (28)]

= 407 / 37

= 11.

Hence the sum of the numbers is 11.

What is the remainder when the polynomial 6x2+11x−3 is divided by 2x−1?
o-na [289]

Answer: 4

There are three different ways to find the remainder.  Since I don't know which lesson you are working on, I will show you all three methods.

<u>Long Division:</u>

           <u>3x  +  7      </u>

2x - 1 ) 6x² + 11x - 3

       -  <u>(6x²  -  3x)</u>   ↓

                    14x  - 3

                -   (<u>14x  - 7)</u>  

                              4    

<u>Synthetic Division:</u>

2x - 1 = 0   ⇒   x = \frac{1}{2}


\frac{1}{2}   | 6      11     -3

    <u>| ↓       3     7</u>

      6      14    4

<u>Remainder Theorem:</u>

2x - 1 = 0   ⇒   x = \frac{1}{2}

f(x) = 6x² + 11x - 3

f(\frac{1}{2}) = 6(\frac{1}{2})² + 11(\frac{1}{2}) - 3

      = 6(\frac{1}{4}) + \frac{11}{2} - 3

      = \frac{3}{2} + \frac{11}{2} - \frac{6}{2}

      = \frac{8}{2}

      = 4
