Answer:

The minimum number of nickels that she could have is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of nickels Ashley has. If she has 4 pennies and has at most 22 coins, then

→ x + 4 <= 22

→ x <= 18    (1)

Her coins worth a minimum $0.78. Also, it is known that 1 dollar is equal to 100 cents and 1 nickel is equal to 5 cents.

→ (x * 5) + 4 >= 78

→ 5x >= 74

→ x >= 14.8  (2)

If we combine the equation 1 and 2:

14.8 <= x <= 18

The minimum value of x is 15

Answer:

18 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

4 pennies = $0.04. 22 coins minus the 4 pennies = 18. So, 18 nickels is equal to $0.90. Because she has at most 22 coins and they're worth at least $0.78 then $0.94 would make since.

Are these triangles similar, if so how do I prove it(SSS,AA or SAS)?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

There isn't a way to prove that the triangles are similar.

Explanation:

Two triangles are similar if they have the same interior angles and the corresponding sides are proportional.

So, to prove that the triangles are similar we can use:

SSS: The three corresponding sides are proportional

SAS: Two sides are proportional and the angle between them is equal

AA: Two angles have the same measure.

In this case, the yellow angles are equal because they are vertically opposite. They are formed by two lines that intersect.

On the other hand, the side with length 3.6 is corresponding with the side with length 9 but the side with length 4.8 is not corresponding with the side with length 12.

Then, there isn't a way to prove that the triangles are similar.

The temperature in frostville was at 50*F at midnight,and it dropped at a constant rate for the next 10 hours.
bazaltina [42]

After 10 hours the temperature is shown on the graph as 30 degrees.

50 degrees - 30 degrees = 20 degrees.

The temperature dropped 20 degrees in 10 hours.

Divide the change by the time:

20 degrees / 10 hours = 2 degrees per hour.

Because the temperature dropped, the change would be negative.

The answer is D. -2 degrees per hour.

How many variable terms are in the expression 3x to the third power Y plus 5X to the second power plus Y +9
andrew-mc [135]

Well, variables are stuff like x and y because they can represent a number. They are variable in an equation. so if you have (3x^3)+(5X^2)+Y+9 then your variables are x X and Y (im assuming the capital X is there and not a typo) if that was a typo and meant to be lowercase, then its just a 2 variable with the x and y

3x-9 when x=3<br> Solve this
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 9 if x = 3

Substitute:

3(3) - 9 =

9 - 9 = 0

This can be written as a function: f(x) = 3x - 9

f(3) = 3x - 9

f(3) = 3(3) - 9

f(3) = 9 - 9

f(3) = 0
