nickels ($0.05): D + 14

dimes ($0.10): D

quarters ($0.25): Q

Quantity:  (D + 14) + D + Q = 102  ⇒   2D + 14 + Q = 102   ⇒  2D + Q = 88    

Value: 0.05(D + 14) + 0.10(D) + 0.25(Q) = 13.60  ⇒  0.05D + 0.70 + 0.10D + 0.25Q = 13.60   ⇒  0.15D + 0.70 + 0.25Q = 13.60  ⇒  0.15D + 0.25Q = 12.90  ⇒ 15D + 25Q = 1290

2D  +     Q =    88  ⇒         -15(2D + Q = 88)   ⇒ -30D - 15Q = -1320

15D + 25Q = 1290 ⇒   2(15D + 25Q = 1290)  ⇒ <u>30D + 50Q</u> = <u>2580 </u>

                                                                                        35Q = 1260

                                                                                         \frac{35Q}{35} = \frac{1260}{35}

                                                                                             Q = 36

Answer: 36 quarters

Multiply the following polynomials
Sophie [7]

Answer  (2x + 7) • (x2 - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

please give me brainlest!!

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :

1.1      Factoring:  x2-2

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =

        A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

        A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

        A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check : 2 is not a square !!

Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect squares.

Final result :

 (2x + 7) • (x2 - 2)
