40 is the correct answer. Hope this helps :)
D + q = 110......d = 110 - q
0.10d + 0.25q = 20.30
0.10(110 - q) + 0.25q = 20.30
11 - 0.10q + 0.25q = 20.30
-0.10q + 0.25q = 20.30 - 11
0.15q = 9.30
q = 9.30/0.15
q = 62 <==== there are 62 quarters
d = 110 - q
d = 110 - 62
d = 48 <==== there are 48 dimes
So, we know that it takes Sam 1 mph up and 9 mph down and it takes Liam both 2 mph down and up the hill. So if we divide the 2 mph for Liam by 2 miles (the whole length of the hill) we will get 1 or 1 hour. Then we do 1/1 (i don't know how to explain this part of why we do that, sorry) and than we do 1 / 9 and we get 1/9 so we add them and get 1 1/9 so that's Sam's time.
So, Liam took one hour and Sam took 1 and 1/9 hours, in conclusion liam was faster

Answer:
Part 1) The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft
Part 2) The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
where
E(t) is Terry's elevation in feet
t is the time in seconds
Part 1) Find the E intercept of the equation
The E-intercept is the value of E when the value of t is equal to zero
so
For t=0
substitute
therefore
The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft
Part 2) Find the slope of the equation
we have
This is the equation of the line into slope intercept form
The slope m is equal to
The slope is negative, because is decreasing
therefore
The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second
