Brianna has x nickels and y pennies. She has no less than 20 coins worth no more

Bond [772]

Answer:

$y \ge 20 - x$

$y \le 80 -5x$

$(x,y) = (15,5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Nickels = x$

$Pennies = y$

$Amount = \$0.80$ maximum

$Coins = 20$ minimum

Required

Solve graphically

First, we need to determine the inequalities of the system.

For number of coins, we have:

$x\ +\ y\ge 20$ because the number of coins is not less than 20

For the worth of coins, we have:

$0.05x\ +\ 0.01y\ \le0.80$ because the worth of coins is not more than 0.80

So, we have the following equations:

$x\ +\ y\ge 20$

$0.05x\ +\ 0.01y\ \le0.80$

Make y the subject in both cases:

$y \ge 20 - x$

$0.01y \le 0.80 - 0.05x$

Divide through by 0.01

$\frac{0.01y}{0.01} \le \frac{0.80}{0.01} -\frac{ 0.05x}{0.01}$

$y \le \frac{0.80}{0.01} -\frac{ 0.05x}{0.01}$

$y \le 80 -5x$

The resulting inequalities are:

$y \ge 20 - x$

$y \le 80 -5x$

The two inequalities are plotted on the graph as shown in the attachment.

$y \ge 20 - x$ --- Blue

$y \ge 80 -5x$ --- Green

Point A on the attachment are possible solutions

At A:

$(x,y) = (15,5)$

Solve the polygon for x

wariber [46]

Octagon has sum of angles 1080°

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 5(10x+15)+2(14x)+6x-3=1080$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 50x+75+28x+6x-3=1080$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 84x+72=1080$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 84x=1008$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=1008/84$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x= 12$

Factor each linear expression.if expression can not be factored write cannot be factored.<br> 36x-9

almond37 [142]

Answer:

9(4x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given linear expression is:

36x - 9

Since, 36 can be written as 9 times 4, we can rewrite the above expression as:

9(4x) - 9

Taking 9 as common, the expression changes to:

9 (4x - 1)

This linear expression can no linger be factorized further.

So,

36x - 9 = 9(4x - 1)

Solve by substitution or elimination<br> 4X – 3y = 7<br> 4x + y = 11

Simora [160]

Answer:

(5/2 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4X – 3y = 7

4x + y = 11

———————

Multiply a -1 to the bottom equation to get the 4x as a negative so it cancels out.

4x - 3y = 7

-4x - y = -11

——————

-4y = -4

Divide by -4

y = 1

Substitute the value of y into one of the equations and solve

4x - 3(1) = 7

4x -3 = 7

4x = 10

Divide by 4

X = 10/4

Simplify by dividing by 2

x = 5/2

Therefore the answer is (5/2, 1 )
