A jar contains $14.25 in quarters and dimes. There are 75 coins in the jar. Find the number of quarters in the jar.

1 answer:

8 0

Set up a system of equations.
d + q = 75
.1d + .25q = 14.25

Multiply the first equation by -.1 so that the "d's" will cancel.
-.1d -.1q = -7.5
.1d +.25q = 14.25
Now add the two equations together
.15q = 6.75
divide both sides by .15
q = 45
There are 45 quarters in the jar

Where,
A: initial height
b: growth rate
x: time
Substituting values we have:

olasank [31]

Hello,

$u_{1} =4\\
 u_{2} =4*q\\
 u_{3} =4*q^2\\
...\\

 u_{9} =4*q^8\\\\
==\textgreater\ 4*q^8=1024\\
==\textgreater\ q^8=256\\
==\textgreater\ q=2\mbox{( and there is a problem in the question) } \ or \ q=-2\\
if\ q=2 \ then\ \sum_{i=0}^{8}\ 4*(2)^i= 4*\dfrac{1-2^9}{1-2} =2044\\

if \ q=-2 \ then\ \sum_{i=0}^{8}\ 4*(-2)^i= 4*\dfrac{1-(-2)^9}{1+2} =684\\
