Answer:

There would be 24 dimes and 76 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, start by defining the number of dimes by x and the number of quarters as y. Now we can create a system of equations. Make the first about the total number of coins.

x + y = 100

Make the second about the amount of money.

.10x + .25y = 21.40

Now we can solve using elimination by multiplying the second equation by -4 and adding through.

x + y = 100

-.40x - y = -85.60

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

.60x = 14.4

x = 24

Now we can use the amount of dimes we have to find the number of quarters.

x + y = 100

24 + y = 100

y = 76

Answer:

3.9125 × 10⁵² people

Step-by-step explanation:

A rumor starts with 3 people and the number of people who heard it doubles each day.

How many people would have heard the rumor after 20 days?

To calculate exponential growth, we use the formula:

y (t) = ae^{kt}

where;

a = value at the start =3

k = growth rate = 2×3 = 6

t = time = 20 days

y(t) = value of the population at the given time (t) =??

y(t) = 3 \times e^{6\times 20}

y(t) = 3.9125 × 10⁵² people
