Answer:  15  dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels are 5 cents and dimes are 10 cents  and since they are a total of 1.95 coins in total we can set up the two equations and solve for how much there are for each of the money.

x + y = 24  

0.05x + 0.10y = 1.95   so solve for  y  and  x is the number of nickels while y is the number of dimes.

x+y=24

   -y    -y

x = -1y +24  

0.05(-1y +24) + 0.10y = 1.95

 -0.05y + 1.2 + 0.10y = 1.95

       0.05y + 1.2 = 1.95

                     -1.2   -1.2

          0.05y = 0.75

   y = 15

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is to the power of a negative number, then it is just that number's reciprocal: e.g. y⁻ˣ = \frac{1}{y^{x} }

Therefore, m⁻² will be m² in the denominator, as n⁻³ will be n³ in the numerator.

That will look like \frac{3n^{3} }{5m^{2} }.

So, that is C.

Two similar pyramids have base areas of 12.2 cm2 and 16 cm2. The surface area of the larger pyramid is 56 cm2. What is the surfa
docker41 [41]

Given =

Two similar pyramid have base area of 12.2 cm² and 16 cm².

surface area of the larger pyramid = 56 cm²

find out the surface area of the smaller pyramid

To proof =

Let us assume that the surface  area of the smaller pyramid be x.

as surface area of the larger pyramid is 56 cm²

Two similar pyramid have base area of 12.2 cm² and 16 cm².

by using ratio and proportion

we have

ratio of the base area of the pyramids : ratio of the surface area  of the pyramids

\frac{12.2}{16} : \frac{x}{56}

x = 12.2 ×56×\frac{1}{16}

by solvingthe above terms

we get

x =42.7cm²

Hence the surface area of the smaller pyramid be 42.7cm²

Hence proved
