Calvin has $8.80 in pennies and nickels. If there are twice as many nickels as pennies, how many pennies does Calvin have? How m

any nickels?

Ray Of Light [21]2 years ago

Let X = the number of pennies.

The number of nickels would be 2X

A penny is 0.01 and a nickel is 0.05

Now you have:

0.01x + 2(0.05x) = 8.80

Simplify:

0.01x + 0.10x = 8.80

Combine like terms:

0.11x = 8.80

Divide both sides by 0.11:

x = 8.80 / 0.11

x = 80

Pennies = X = 80 total pennies.

Nickels = 2x = 2 *80 = 160 nickels.

Find an equation for the line tangent to the curve at the point defined by the given value of t. Also, find the value of d^2y/dx
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Differentiation will give you the gradient for the tangent at any point, and you use the product rule whenever a function can be thought of as two functions multiplied together.

If

f

(

x

)

=

g

(

x

)

×

h

(

x

)

then

f

'

(

x

)

=

g

'

(

x

)

h

(

x

)

+

g

(

x

)

h

'

(

x

)

so if

y

=

x

×

sin

x

then

d

y

d

x

=

1

×

sin

x

+

x

×

cos

x

=

sin

x

+

x

cos

x

We know that

x

=

π

2

, so the gradient is

m

=

sin

(

π

2

)

+

π

2

cos

(

π

2

)

=

1

+

π

2

×

0

=

1

Therefore, we can say that

y

=

m

x

+

c

y

=

(

1

)

x

+

c

y

=

x

+

c

So all we really need to find now is the value for

c

, the

y

intercept. We do this by working out a point

(

x

,

y

)

on the graph. We are already given that

x

=

π

2

, so

y

=

x

sin

x

=

π

2

sin

(

π

2

)

=

π

2

×

1

=

π

2

∴

(

x

,

y

)

=

(

π

2

,

π

2

)

Now we substitute this into the equation we already have for the tangent,

y

=

x

+

c

,

(

x

,

y

)

=

(

π

2

,

π

2

)

π

2

=

π

2

+

c

c

=

π

2

−

π

2

=

0

∴

y

=

x

+

c

=

x

+

(

0

)

=

x

which means the tangent to the curve

y

=

x

sin

x

at

(

π

2

,

π

2

)

is simply

y

=

x

.

Hannah and Corrine are playing a game by rolling two cubes, each numbered 1 through 6. If the sum of the numbers on the cubes is
Katarina [22]

Answer:

D. Corrine is not correct because Hannah also wins if 6 is on the first cube and 1 is on the second, if 5 is on the first cube and 2 is on the second, and if 4 is on the first cube and 3 is on the second.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get a sum of 7 by rolling two cubes, we need to get one of the combinations from the list below:

1 on the first cube, 6 on the second cube

or

6 on the first cube, 1 on the second cube

2 on the first cube, 5 on the second cube

or

5 on the first cube, 2 on the second cube

3 on the first cube, 4 on the second cube

or

4 on the first cube, 3 on the second cube

Therefore, the correct answer option is D. Corrine is not correct because Hannah also wins if 6 is on the first cube and 1 is on the second, if 5 is on the first cube and 2 is on the second, and if 4 is on the first cube and 3 is on the second.
