For the answer to the question above,
and we are told that there are "four times as many quarters as nickels"
this translates to
q = 4n
0.05n + 0.25q = 2.10
and
q = 4n
are your two equations that could be used to solve this problem
if you would like to know how many nickels and how many quarters there are, plug in q = 4n into the first equation and get
0.05n + 0.25(4n) = 2.10
then I would stop here
because I didn't see the choices. So the answer is 4n
Answer:
Original Price = $23
Step-by-step explanation:
$5.75 is the price after a discount of 75%
Let the original price be x and x is 100% of the price
5.75 = 100%x - 75%x
5.75 = 25%x
The new price is 25% of the original because you are subtracting 75%
25% is also written as 0.25
5.75 = 0.25x
x = 5.75/0.25
x = 23
The original price is 23

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= -0.08x(x^2-11x+18)
Factor
f(x)= -0.08x(x-9)(x-2)
Using the zero product property to find the zeros
0= -0.08x(x-2)(x-9)
-0.8x =0 x-2 =0 x-9 =0
x=0 x=2 x=9
Multiply out
f(x) = -0.08 x^3 + 0.88 x^2 - 1.44 x
The highest power is x^3
f(-∞) = -0.08( -∞)^3 = - ( -∞) = ∞
As x goes to -∞ f(x) goes to +∞
f(∞) = -0.08( ∞)^3 = - ( ∞) = -∞
As x goes to ∞ f(x) goes to -∞
