Answer:

Jenna had 25 quarters and 15 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Q = the number of quarters and D = the number of dimes.

Then:

1) Q+D = 40 "One week she had 40 coins, all of them dimes and quarters...."

2) 0.25Q+0.1D = $7.75 "...she had a total of $7.75."

Rewrite equation 1) as: D = 40-Q and substitute into equation 2).

2a) 0.25Q+0.1(40-Q) = 7.75 Simplify the left side.

 

2b) 0.25Q+4-0.1Q = $7.75 Subtract 4 from both sides.

2c) 0.25Q-0.1Q = 3.75 Combine the like-terms on the left side.

2d) 0.15Q = 7.75 Divide both sides by 0.15

2e) Q = 25 and:

D = 40-Q

D = 40-25

D = 15

Jenna had 25 quarters and 15 dimes.

"A rectangle has a height of 5 cm and its base is increasing at a rate" of 3/2 cm/min. When its area is 60 cm2, at what rate is
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The diagonal is increasing at the rate of 119/104cm/min of the given rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the rectangle

Height = 5cm

Rate of base = 3/2 cm/min

Area = 60cm^2

We know the area of a rectangle of given by = base* Height

b*h = 60

b*5 = 60

b = 12cm

Applying Pythagoras theorem while drawing a diagonal to the rectangle

  b^2 +h^2 =  D^2\\

 5^2 +12^2 = 13^2

so our diagonal will be 13cm  

Upon differentiating the area of the rectangle  we get

b*h = A=60cm^2

using  the chain rule of differentiation

h*db/dt + b*dh/dt  = 0

b*dh/dt = -h*db/dt

12*dh/dt = -5*3/2

dh/dt = -5/8 cm//min

so the height of the rectangle is decreasing at the rate of -5/8cm/min

now we have all the measurements we need

b = 12 , db/dt = 3/2cm/min

h = 5 , dh/dt = -5/8 cm/min

b^2 +h^2  = D^2

Upon differentiating we get

2b*db/dt + 2h*dh/dt = 2D*dD/dt

b*db/dt + h*dh/dt = D*dD/dt

12*3/2 + 5*(-5/8) = 13*dD/dt

18 -25/8 = 13*dD/dt

\frac{144-25}{8} = 13*dD/dt

dD/dt = \frac{119}{104} cm/min

Therefore the diagonal is increasing at the rate of 119/104cm/min of the given rectangle.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

0.784

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you are  analyzing the allele frequencies for fur color in a population of squirrels where black fur is dominant to red fur.

As part of your research, you collect the following data:

Total individuals: 1,000

Red fur individuals: 216

So black fur individuals = 1000-216\\=784

p2 = proportion of black fur individuals to total individuals

= \frac{784}{1000} \\=0.784
