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.

Find the perimeter of the triangle defined by the coordinates (7, 1), (-6, 1), and (10, 6). (Round to nearest tenth)
matrenka [14]

Answer:

35.6\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The perimeter of triangle is equal to the sum of the length of the three sides

Let

A(7, 1), B(-6, 1), C(10, 6)

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

Find the distance AB

A(7, 1), B(-6, 1)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(1-1)^{2}+(-6-7)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-13)^{2}}

dAB=13\ units

Find the distance BC

B(-6, 1), C(10, 6)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(6-1)^{2}+(10+6)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(5)^{2}+(16)^{2}}

dBC=16.8\ units

Find the distance AC

A(7, 1), C(10, 6)

substitute in the formula

d=\sqrt{(6-1)^{2}+(10-7)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(5)^{2}+(3)^{2}}

dAC=5.8\ units

Find the perimeter

P=dAB+dBC+dAC

P=13+16.8+5.8=35.6\ units
