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

Lupita rides a taxi that charges a flat rate of $6.75 plus $3.20 per mile. If the taxi charges Lupita $40.03 in total for her tr
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

10.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation for the total cost paid as a function of the # of miles driven:

L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x

and set this equal to $40.03 to determine the # of miles Lupita rode:

L(x) = $6.75 + ($3.20/mile)x = $40.03

Isolate the x term by subtracting $6.75 from both sides:

($3.20/mile)x = $40.03 - $6.75 = $33.28

Finally, divide both sides by  ($3.20/mile):

x = $33.28 /  ($3.20/mile)

  =  10.4 miles

Lupita rode 10.4 miles in the taxi.

n a large high school, 37% of the teachers believe that five minutes is not enough time for students to change classes. However,
timurjin [86]

The difference (faculty-student) in the sample proportions of those who believe that five minutes is not enough time for students to change classes typically varies about 0.096 from the true difference in proportions. Option D is correct.

<h3>What is the standard deviation?</h3>

It is a measurement of statistical data dispersion. The degree to which the value varies is known as standard deviation.

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is found as;

\rm \sigma_F-\sigma_s= \sqrt{\frac{0.37 \times (1-0.37)}{28}+\frac{0.89 \times (1-0.89)}{100}  } \\\\  \sigma_F-\sigma_s=0.096

The difference in the sample proportions of those who think five minutes is not enough time for students to switch classrooms generally differs by roughly 0.096 from the actual difference in proportions.

Hence option D is correct.

To learn more about the standard deviation, refer to: brainly.com/question/16555520.
