Answer:the number of dimes is 22

the number of quarters is 11

Step-by-step explanation:

A dime is worth 10 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes 10/100 = $0.1

A quarter is worth 25 cents. Converting to dollars, it becomes 25/100 = $0.25

Let x represent the number of dimes.

Let y represent the number of quarters.

Daniele has 33 quarters and dimes in her piggy bank. This means that

x + y = 33

The piggy bank contains a total of $4.95. This means that

0.1x + 0.25y = 4.95 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 33 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.1(33 - y) + 0.25y = 4.95

3.3 - 0.1y + 0.25y = 4.95

- 0.1y + 0.25y = 4.95 - 3.3

0.15y = 1.65

y = 1.65/0.15 = 11

Substituting y = 11 into x = 33 - y, it becomes

x= 33 - 11 = 22

What is the least common denominator for the fractions1/6and 3/4 ?
melomori [17]
A. 12; Least common denominator is the least multiple that the denominator have together. So you multiply the denominators until you get the first number they both have in common.
6*1 = 6
6*2 =12

4*1 =4
4*2 =8
4*3 = 12 

Since the first number they both have in common is 12, the least common denominator is 12

Find an equation for the line below.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

y=3/4x-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a straight line, so it would follow the equation y=mx+b. You can find the b value by looking at the y-intercept of the equation (where x=0), which in this case would be -2.5. Then, you can find the m value by comparing the two given points' locations. Slope is rise over run, so first you can find the rise. The y value moves from y=-4 to y=2, which is a value of 6 units upward. The points move from x=-2 to x=6, which is a distance of 8 units. Finally, put it into the rise over run pattern, giving you 6/8, which simplified is 3/4. This is your m value. Finally, plug in your two variable values into y=mx+b and you'll get y=3/4x-2.5.
