Answer:

\left\{\begin{matrix}x+y=10\\ 0.05x+0.10y=0.85\end{matrix}\right.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>System of Equations</u>

Let's call:

x = number of nickels in the student's pocket

y = number of dimes in the student's pocket

Each nickel has a value of $0.05, so x nickels have a value of 0.05x

Each dime has a value of $0.10, so y dimes have a value of 0.10y

The student has a total of 10 coins, thus:

x+y=10

The total value of the coins is $0.85, thus

0.05x+0.10y=0.85

The system of linear equations that represents this scenario is:

\left\{\begin{matrix}x+y=10\\ 0.05x+0.10y=0.85\end{matrix}\right.

Two times the smaller of two consecutive integers is equal to 2 more than the larger. What is the LARGER integer?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The larger integer is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two times the smaller of two consecutive integers is equal to 2 more than the larger.

To find: The larger integer.

Solution:

Let the two consecutive integers be x and x+1,  where the smaller integer is x and larger integer is x+1.

Now, according to question.

Two times the smaller integer = 2 more than the larger integer.

\implies 2x=x+1+2

\implies 2x-x=3

\implies x=3

So, the smaller integer is 3, and the larger integer is 3+1=4.

Hence, the larger integer is 4.

What is the x-intercept of the graph of y =x2-4x+4
oksano4ka [1.4K]
      y = x² - 4x + 4
      0 = x² - 4x + 4
      0 = x² - 2x - 2x + 4
      0 = x(x) - x(2) - 2(x) - 2(-2)
      0 = x(x - 2) - 2(x - 2)
      0 = (x - 2)(x - 2)
      0 = (x - 2)²
      0 = x - 2
   + 2      + 2
      2 = x
(x, y) = (2, 0)
