Answer:

The number of dimes is <u>14</u> and the number of quarters is <u>7</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Emily has $3.15 worth of dimes and quarters.

<em><u>She has twice as many dimes as quarters.</u></em>

Now, to determine the number of dimes and the number of quarters.

Let the number of quarters be x.

And the number of dimes be  2x.

So, the total worth of dimes and quarters = $3.15.

Now, to get the number of dimes and quarters:

According to question:

0.10(2x)+0.25x=3.15

0.20x+0.25x=3.15

0.45x=3.15

<em>Dividing both sides by 0.45 we get:</em>

x=7.

<em>Thus, the number of quarters</em> = 7.

<em>So, the number of dimes</em> = 2x=2\times 7=14.

Therefore, the number of dimes is 14 and the number of quarters is 7.

What is the result of a dilation of scale factor 3 centered at the origin of the line 2y + 3x=10
romanna [79]

Answer:

(10, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the origin of the equation 2y+3x = 10, we need to get the x and y-intercept of the line.

x-intercept occurs at y = 0

If y = 0

2(0)+3x =10

3x =10

x = 10/3

x = 1.33

y-intercept occurs at x = 0

If x = 0

2y+3(0) =10

2y =10

y = 10/2

y = 5

Hence the coordinate at the origin is (10/3, 5). If this coordinate is dilated by 3, the required coordinate will be at (10/3*3, 5*3) = (10, 15)

Hence the required coordinate is (10, 15)

Determine algebrically if f(x)=4x³-5x is odd or even function​
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Odd function

Step-by-step explanation:

So to see if a function is odd or even we need to plug in a negative x for x, so f(-x)=4(-x)^3-5(-x). This produces -4x^3+5x, which is the exact opposite of the original equation, so it is an odd function. If it were even, then the signs of the coefficients would be the same as the original function.
