Let x be the number of nickels and y be the number of quarters.

Then, x + y = 42 --- (1)

It is given that total value = 4.90.

Therefore, 0.05x + 0.25y = 4.9 --- (2)

Multiply (1) by 0.25

0.25x + 0.25y = 10.5 --- (3)

Now, subtract (2) from (3), we get,

0.2x = 5.6

Divide both sides by 0.2.

x = 28

x + y = 42

y = 42 - x

= 42 - 28

= 14

Hence, Mary has 28 nickels and 14 quarters in total.

Find the maximum and minimum values of the function. y=1/2sin2x
kykrilka [37]

Answer:  

(-1/2,1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally for sinx amplitude is 2 (1 +1). In the case when it is half sine amplitude is halved, therefore 0.5 +0.5 = 1 Paramers alpha = 2x does not matter because it only stretches the graph horizontally.

hope it helped

All together, 3 people have 120 coins. mark has 3 times as many as joel, and joel has 1/2 as many as sandra. how many coins does
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Joel = j, Mark = m, Sandra = s
j + m + s = 120
m = 3j
j = 1/2 s --> s = 2j
plug in (substitute) each letter to make it in terms of only j: j + m + s = 120
j + 3j + 2j = 120
6j = 120
6j/6 = 120/6
j = 20
now plug in for the j & s equation:
s = 2j = 2(20) = 40
Therefore Sandra has 40 coins!
