A collection of 77 quarters and dimes is worth $12.50. How many quarters are in the collection? PLS HELP ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLEST
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

77 quarters and dimes

q + d = 77

subtract q from both sides

d = 77 - q

---------------------------

A collection of  quarters and dimes is worth $12.50 (1250 cents)

25q + 10d = 1250

substitute for d

25q + 10(77 - q) = 1250

distribute

25q + 770 - 10q = 1250

Combine like terms

15q + 770 = 1250

subtract 770 from both sides

15q = 480

divide both sides by 15

q = 32

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. 2x + 4y = –6; (2,
Anna [14]

First we have to find the slope of the given line. We do that by puttiing the equation into slope-interept form. or solving it for y (same thing). 2x + 4y = -6. We move the 2x over by subtraction to get 4y = -2x - 6. Divide both sides by 4 to get the slope-intercept form we are seeking. y=-\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{2}. The slope that is perpendicular to that slope of -1/2 is the opposite reciprocal. Therefore, the perpendicular slope is a positive 2/1 or just 2. If this new line goes through the point (2, 5), it goes through the x value of 2 and the y value of 5. We will use those values along with the slope of 2 to solve for b in our slope-intercept equation. That looks like this: 5=2(2)+b and b = 1. That means our new equation, the one that is perpendicular to the given line, has an equation of y = 2x + 1.

What is the integral of ln(sqrt t)/t?
Alina [70]
<span> ∫ [ln(√t) / t] dx
let √t = u
t= u² → dx = 2u du
substitute in the integral
∫ [ln(√t) / t] dx = ∫ (ln u / u²) 2u du = ∫ (ln u / u²) 2u du = 2 ∫ (ln u / u) du
let ln u = x → d (ln u) = dx→ (1/u)du = dx
substituting again
2 ∫ (ln u / u) du = 2 ∫ x dx= 2 x²/ 2 = x² + c which,
substituting ln² u + c
as of the first substitution ln²(√t) + c
it concludes that
∫ [ln(√t) / t] dx = ln²(√t) + c
hope it helps

According to a 2015 Census Bureau survey, 75,511 of the 822,959 residents of Baltimore County, Maryland, were enrolled in colleg
quester [9]

Answer:

73.4

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given that 75,511 out of 822,959  residents enrolled in the college, the probability of success  is calculated as:

P_{enrollment}=\frac{Enrollment}{Total \ Residents}\\\\=\frac{75511}{822959}\\\\=0.09176\\\\p=0.09176

#We know that this is a binomial distribution with p=0.09176 and n=800, Expected value is calculated as:

E(X)=np, n=800, p=0.09176\\\\=0.09176\times 800\\\\=73.4

Hence the expected value E(X)=73.4

How do you solve this 3x-4=3x-5
Basile [38]
Combine like terms so 3x + 3x= 6x
Then put the minus signs with the 4 and 5 and add them together so -4+ -5= -9
Now you have 6x=-9 So you divide by 6 on both sides canceling out 6
but 9 divided by 6 doesn't go into a specific number therefore it has no solution which is a possible answer
