There are 62 dimes and 44 nickels.
N + D = 106 (There are 106 coins in all.)
1 nickel = 5 cents.
1 dime = 10 cents.
5*N + 10*D = 840 ($8.40 = 840 cents)
N + D = 106 -------(1)
N = (106 - D)
5*N + 10*D = 840 ---------(2)
5*(106-D) + 10*D = 840
530 - 5*D + 10*D = 840
5*D = 840 - 530
5*D = 310
D = 310/5 = 62
Eq(1) N + D = 106
N + 62 = 106
N = 106 - 62
N = 44
Are equation for a rectangle is area = (width x length)
(18x - 12) = 6 x length
length = (18x - 12) / 6
length = 3x - 2
A) x^2 +x -30 = 0 is factored by looking for two factors of 30 that differ by 1. We know ... 30 = 1*30 = 2*15 = 3*10 = 5*6The last two factors differ by 1, so we can factor the trinomial as (x +6)(x -5) = 0
b) The solutions are found by finding values of x that make these factors zero. The only way the product will be zero is if one or more of the factors is zero. x + 6 = 0 x = -6 . . . . . subtract 6
x - 5 = 0 x = 5 . . . . . add 5
The solutions are x = -6 or x = 5These are the values of x that will satisfy the equation (make it true). What they mean depends on the meaning of the variable and the situation the equation is a model of.
Answer:
15(b)
16(a)
Step-by-step explanation:
15) 2x+10/2
Taking 2 common
2(x+5)/2
x+5
16) -2(-x-3)
(-2*-x)+(-2*-3)
2x+(6)
2x+6
X = 20
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
x
=
20
