Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation j – 16 = 7, If Nolan is using substitution to determine if 23 is a solution to the equation, then Nolan need to make j the subject of the formula from the equation. The following statements must therefore be made by Nolan.

First, Nolan must substitute for the value of j in the equation.

To simplify, Nolan must subtract the value of 7 from both sides to have;

j – 16 - 7= 7 - 7

j – 23 = 0

Then Nolan must add 23 to both sides of the equation to get the value of j as shown;

j – 23 + 23 = 0+23

j = 23

23 is therefore a solution to the equation

Tower one, a cube with a hexagonal prism measures 15.6cm. Tower two, a cube with a cylinder measures 18.3cm. Tower 3, a hexagona

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

$Tower 4 = 23.9cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tower one = 15.6 cm

Tower two = 18.3 cm

Tower 3 = 13.9 cm.

Required:

Height of the 4th tower

Represent a cube by X; a cylinder by Y and a hexagonal prism by Z

Tower one, a cube with a hexagonal prism = X + Z = 15.6

Tower two, a cube with a cylinder = X + Y = 18.3

Tower 3, a hexagonal prism with a cylinder = Z + Y = 13.9

$X + Z = 15.6$ ----- Equation 1

$X + Y = 18.3$ ----- Equation 2

$Z + Y = 13.9$ ----- Equation 3

Subtract equation 1 from 2

$(X + Y = 18.3) - (X + Z = 15.6)$

$X - X + Y - Z = 18.3 -15.6$

$Y - Z = 18.3 -15.6$

$Y - Z = 2.7$ ---- Equation 4

Add Equation 4 to Equation 3

$(Y - Z = 2.7) + (Z + Y = 13.9)$

$Y + Y - Z + Z = 2.7+ 13.9$

$2Y = 2.7+ 13.9$

$2Y = 16.6$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2Y}{2} = \frac{16.6}{2}$

$Y = \frac{16.6}{2}$

$Y = 8.3cm$

Substitute $Y = 8.3cm$ in Equation 2 and 3

$X + Y = 18.3$ ----- Equation 2

$X + 8.3 = 18.3$

Subtract 8.3 from both sides

$X + 8.3 - 8.3 = 18.3 - 8.3$

$X = 18.3 - 8.3$

$X = 10cm$

$Z + Y = 13.9$ ----- Equation 3

$Z + 8.3 = 13.9$

Subtract 8.3 from both sides

$Z + 8.3 - 8.3 = 13.9 - 8.3$

$Z = 13.9 - 8.3$

$Z = 5.6cm$

So, we have that

$X = 10cm$

$Y = 8.3cm$

$Z = 5.6cm$

The question states that the 4th tower is made up of the three shapes;

This implies that;

$Tower 4 = X + Y + Z$

$Tower 4 = 10cm + 8.3cm + 5.6cm$

$Tower 4 = 23.9cm$

The height of the 4th tower is 23.9cm

Anthony has been saving nickels dimes quarters over the last year he knows that he has twice as many nickels as quarters. change

OLga [1]

Answer:

The number of nickel's coin is 150

The number of dime's coin is 35

The number of quarter's coin is 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of nickel's coin

y ---> the number of dime's coin

z ---> the number of quarter's coin

Remember that

$1\ nickel=\$0.05$

$1\ dime=\$0.10$

$1\ quarter=\$0.25$

we know that

$x+y+z=260$ ----> equation A

$0.05x+0.10y+0.25z=29.75$ ----> equation B

$x=2z$ ----> equation C

substitute equation C in equation A and equation B

$2z+y+z=260$

$3z+y=260$ ---> equation A1

$0.05(2z)+0.10y+0.25z=29.75$

$0.35z+0.10y=29.75$ -----> equation B1

Solve the system of equations A1 and B1 by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (75,35)

see the attached figure

z=75, y=35

Find the value of x

$x=2(75)=150$

therefore

The number of nickel's coin is 150

The number of dime's coin is 35

The number of quarter's coin is 75
