Answer: there are 8 quarters in the jar
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of nickels that is inside the jar.
The total number of coins inside the jar is 20.
Probability is expressed as
Number of possible or favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes.
The probability of selecting a nickel is 0.6. This is expressed as
0.6 = x/20
Cross multiplying, it becomes
x = 20 × 0.6
x = 12
Since there are 12 nickels inside the jar, then the number of quarters would be
20 - 12 = 8
The rate of change is simply the derivative of a function with respect to the other variable. In this case the rate of change with respect to x is desired. Therefore
f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2
f'(x) = 3x^2 - 6x
therefore the rate of change of y with respect to x is dy/dx = 3x^2 - 6x
75% of 60
OF MEANS times
75/100 * 60
180/4
45
the answer is 45
