Peggy had four times as many quarters as nickels. She had $2.10 in all. How many nickels and how many quarters did she have?

1 answer:

8 0

For the answer to the question above,
and we are told that there are "four times as many quarters as nickels"
this translates to
q = 4n

0.05n + 0.25q = 2.10
and
q = 4n
are your two equations that could be used to solve this problem

if you would like to know how many nickels and how many quarters there are, plug in q = 4n into the first equation and get
0.05n + 0.25(4n) = 2.10
then I would stop here
because I didn't see the choices. So the answer is 4n

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

15. $\frac{cotx+1}{cotx-1} = \frac{cotx+cotx.tanx}{cotx-cotx.tanx} = \frac{cotx(1+tanx)}{cotx(1-tanx)} = \frac{1+tanx}{1-tanx} \\$

16. $\frac{1+cos\alpha }{sin\alpha } = \frac{sin\alpha }{1-cos\alpha }$

$=> (1+cos\alpha )(1-cos\alpha ) = sin^{2} \alpha \\=> 1-cos^{2}\alpha =sin^{2} \alpha \\=> sin^{2}\alpha +cos^{2}\alpha =1\\$

=> The clause is correct

17. Do the same (16)

18. $\frac{sinx}{1-cosx}+\frac{sinx}{1+cosx} = \frac{sinx(1+cosx) + sinx(1-cosx)}{(1+cosx)(1-cosx)} = \frac{sinx + sinx.cosx + sinx - sinx.cosx}{1-cos^{2}x} = \frac{2sinx}{sin^{2}x }= \frac{2}{sinx} = 2cosecx$

19.

$\frac{sinA}{1+cosA} + \frac{1+cosA}{sinA}=\frac{2}{sinA} \\=> \frac{sinA}{1+cosA} + \frac{1+cosA}{sinA} - \frac{2}{sinA} \\ = 0\\=> \frac{sinA}{1+cosA} + (\frac{1+cosA}{sinA} - \frac{2}{sinA} \\) = 0\\=> \frac{sinA}{1+cosA} + \frac{1+cosA-2}{sinA} = 0\\=> \frac{sinA}{1+cosA} +\frac{cosA-1}{sinA} = 0\\=> \frac{sin^{2} A+(cosA-1)(1+cosA)}{(1+cosA)sinA}=0\\=> \frac{sin^{2} A+cos^{2} A-1}{(1+cosA)sinA}=0\\=> \frac{0}{(1+cosA)sinA} =0\\$
