Answer:

Carl has 35 dimes and 90 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of quarters be q and the number of dimes be d

Total number of coins is 125;

Hence;

q + d = 125 •••••••••(i)

The total value of quarters present = q * 0.25 = 0.25q

The total value of dimes present = d * 0.1 = 0.1d

Adding both gives the total

0.25q + 0.1d =26 ••••••••(ii)

So we need to solve both equations simultaneously;

From i,

q = 125 - d

Substitute this into ii

0.25(125-d) + 0.1d = 26

31.25 -0.25d + 0.1d = 26

31.25 -26 = 0.25d -0.1d

5.25 = 0.15d

d = 5.25/0.15

d = 35

Recall; q = 125 - d = 125 -35 = 90

The intensity of light bulb measured in watts per square meter (w/m^2), varies inversely as the square of the distance d from th
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

I(7)   =  22.96 W/m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let intensity of light, be  I(d)   where d is distance. There must be a proportionality factor K such as

I(d)  = K /d²

Now for d = 5 m    I(d)  =  K* 1/d²

then  45 * 25 = K

K =  1125

To find the intensity when the distance from the light bulb is 7 m away

I(7)   =  K / 49

I(7)   =  1125/49   W/m²

I(7)   =  22.96 W/m²

What is greater 0.7 or 3/5
steposvetlana [31]
The answer would be 0.7 since we can say that 3/5 of 100 makes 60 while 0.7 is 70 which means that 0.7 has more.
