I’m guessing that this is for systems of equations?
n - nickels
d - dimes

These are the equations you start off with.
n = 5d-2
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05n

Substitute the top equation for n into the variable n in the bottom equation.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05(5d-2)

Solve for d.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.25d-0.10
1.05 = 0.35d
3 = d

Substitute d into the top equation and solve for n.
n = 5(3)-2
n = 15-3
n = 12

There are 3 dimes and 12 nickels in the coin purse! Hope this helped <3

In traveling from a dormitory to a certain city, a student went 1/5 of the way by foot, 2/3 of the way by bus, and the remaining
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Now, what we know is that the total distance from the dormitory to the city is 1 if expressed in fraction. What we need to know is the fraction of the journey that is scheduled as the last part.

We can get this by subtracting the fractions of the first two phases from 1.

This goes as follows:

1 - (1/5) - (2/3) = 2/15

Now, we know that the final 8 kilometers constitute a fraction of just 2/5

Hence, we know that 2/15 of the total journey is 8 kilometers.

Let the total journey distance be T. This means that 2/15 of T is 8km

2/15 * T = 8km

T = ( 8 * 15 )/2 = 120/2 = 60km

suppose that a set of scores has a mean of 5 and standard deviation of 2. what score corresponds to a z score of -2.0?
anzhelika [568]

The set of scores has a mean of 5 and a standard deviation of 2. The score which corresponds to a z score of -2.0 is 1.

Given in the question,

Mean (m) = 5

Standard deviation σ =2

Z-score = -2

The score x,

= Z = x - m / σ

= -2 = x - 5 / 2

= -4 = x - 5

= x = 1

Standard deviation in statistics means the amount of dispersion or variations in the set of values. A lower standard deviation means the value is closer to the mean while a higher standard deviation means the value is farther away from the mean.

If the total area of a dartboard 30 000 mm² and the area of the target is 700 mm²
 The probability of obtaining a target can be written as:
 P = 700 mm² / 30 000 mm²
 P = 0.0233
 P = 2.3%
 Therefore the correct answer is option B.
 This, assuming the shooter has no experience and rolls the dart randomly within the dartboard area.
