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

Does -2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2) have one,zero or infinite solutions
Andrew [12]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

One solution (z = -1)

Discussion:

-2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2)        =>

-2z -6 -z = -z -4z - 8       =>

-3z -6 = -5z -8                =>  add 6 to both sides

-2z = -5z -2                     => add 5z to both sides

3z = -5z +5z -3               =>

3z = -3                            =>

z = -1

Thank you,

MrB

Solve 2(4 x + 3) &lt; 5 x + 21. { x | x &lt; 9} { x | x &gt; -5} { x | x &gt; -9} { x | x &lt; 5}
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

x <5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4 x + 3) < 5 x + 21

Distribute

8x +6 < 5x +21

Subtract 5x from each side

8x -5x +6 < 5x-5x+21

3x +6 < 21

Subtract 6 from each side

3x+6-6 <21-6

3x <15

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 <15/3

x <5

(Pls help) I need help finding x!
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

x ≈ 46°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the sine ratio to solve for x

sinx = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{10}{14}, hence

x = sin^{-1} ( \frac{10}{14} ) ≈ 46°

Make b the subject of the formula <br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=k%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7Bbrt%7D%7Bv%20-%20b%7D%20" id="Tex
balu736 [363]

Answer:

b = \frac{kv}{k+rt}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

k = \frac{brt}{v-b} ← multiply both sides by (v - b)

k(v - b) = brt ← distribute left side

kv - kb = brt ( subtract brt from both sides )

kv - kb - brt = 0 ( subtract kv from both sides )

- kb - brt = - kv ( multiply through by - 1 to clear the negatives )

kb + brt = kv ← factor out b from each term on the left

b(k + rt ) = kv ← divide both sides by (k + rt )

b = \frac{kv}{k+rt}
