To answer this question you should begin with the coin that has a higher value.  If you start with the dime and then just add the correct number of pennies to total $0.40, you will see that you will need 3 dimes ($0.30) and 10 pennies ($0.10).  

I used a guess and check strategy starting with 2 dimes.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The combination of coins are:

         3 dimes and 10 pennies.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let there are d number of dines and p number of pennies.

Now as there are a total of 13 coins this means that:

                   d+p=13------(1)

and also the total value of the coins is 40 cents.

1 dime=10 cents

Hence, d dime= 10 d cents

Also, 1 penny= 1 cent

Hence p penny= p cents

Hence, we get:

                     10d+p=40------(2)

On subtracting equation (1) from (2) we get:

             9 d=27

on dividing both side by 9 we get:

                 d=3

On putting the value of d in equation (1) we get:

           3+p=13

i.e.  p=13-3

i.e.  p=10

The combination is:

    3 dimes and 10 pennies

<span>basically since 30 minutes is half of an hour, to get to a full hour you can multiply by 2, so you do that for both, 2/3 included so you get 2/3 * 2/1 4/3 is 1 1/3</span>

If your income is $18.00 and the prices of x and y are $4.00 and $2.00, respectively, what quantities of each will you purchase
boyakko [2]

Answer:

2 units of X and 5 units of Y

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Utility is maximized when (MUx / Price of X) = (MUy / Price of Y)  

This condition holds for the following cases

1.  X = 4 (MUx / Px = 8 / 4 = 2) and Y = 6 (MUy / Px = 4 / 2 = 2)

2.  X = 2 (MUx / Px = 16 / 4 = 4) and Y = 5 (MUy / Px = 8 / 2 = 4)

For the first case Total cost = 4 x $4 + 6 x $2 = $(16 + 12) = $28 (Budget is exceeded).

In the second scenario, Total cost = 2 x $4 + 5 x $2 = $(8 + 10) = $18 (budget is exhausted).

Optimal case contains  X = 2 units, Y = 5 units.
