Answer:

The number of nickel = 3

Number of dime =  1

Number of quarter  = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the number of nickels Meghan has = m

So, the number of dimes she has = m -2

And the number of quarters she has = 1  + 2 m

Now, the total amount she has  = $2.00

1 nickel = $0.05  ⇒  m nickel =  m ($0.05)  = 0.05 m

1 dime = $0.10 ⇒  (m -2) dime =  m-2  ($0.10)  = 0.10 (m-2)

1 quarter  = $0.25  ⇒  (1+ 2m) quarter = (1+ 2m) ($0.25)  = 0.25 (1+2m)

So, according to the question:

Amount of (nickel + dime + quarter) = $2.00

⇒  0.05 m +  0.10 (m-2) +  0.25 (1+2m) = 2

or, 0.05 m + 0.10 m - 0.20 + 0.25  + 0.5 m = 2

or, 0.65 m = 2 - 0.05

or, m = 1.95/0.65 =  3

or,  m  = 3

Hence, the number of nickel = 3

Number of dime =   m -2  =  3-2  =   1

and Number of quarter = 2m + 1 = 7

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

She earns 5.5 dollars per hour at the library

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to assume that the questions is "how much she earns per hour at the library?"

Let's call x the amount of dollars earn by hour at the library. We know that she worked for 6 hours, thus she made 6x dollars.

Later her grandma gave her 20 dollars and she has now 53 dollars.

Let's write the equation and solve it

Amount earned + Amount given by her grandma = 53

6x+20=53\\6x=33\\x=\frac{33}{6}\\x=5.5

Thus, based on this information we would have that Kia earns 5.5 dollars per hour.

F(x) =x^2-4x+2 and g(x) =3x-7 find (fog)(x)​
fgiga [73]

Answer:

9x² - 54x + 79

Step-by-step explanation:

To find (f ○ g)(x) substitute x = g(x) into f(x), that is

f(g(x))

= f(3x - 7)

= (3x - 7)² - 4(3x - 7) + 2 ← expand factor using FOIL

= 9x² - 42x + 49 - 12x + 28 + 2 ← collect like terms

= 9x² - 54x + 79
