Answer:

$1.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the numbers of nickels, dimes and quarters by n, d and q.

Then: d + q = 9, or q = 9 - d.

Also, n + d = 10

Lastly, n + d + q = 15.

Let's substitute 9 - d for q in the equation immediately above:

n + d + (9 - d) = 15, or n + 9 = 15.  Then n must be 6.

In summary, Jim has 6 nickels, (10 - 6) dimes and (9 - 4) quarters, or:

                                    6 nickels, 4 dimes and 5 quarters

Thus, he has 5($0.05) + 4($0.10) + 5($0.25), or

                         $0.25   +   $0.40   + $1.25, or          $1.90

A bicycle tire has a diameter of 62cm. What is the distance the bicycle tire travels in 10 revolutions?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

1948 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the circumference of the wheel with tire.  Since C = πd, the circumference in this particular case is C = π(62 cm), or approx. 194.8 cm.

Each time the wheel turns, the bike moves forward 194.8 cm.

If the wheel turns 10 times, the bike moves forward 1948 cm.

Given the function f(x) = 4(x+3) − 5, solve for the inverse function when x = 3.
natulia [17]
f(x)=4(x+3)-5 \\ f(x)=4x+12-5 \\ f(x)=4x+7 \\ \\
\hbox{solve for x:} \\
y=4x+7 \\
y-7=4x \\
x=\frac{y-7}{4} \\ \\
\hbox{swap x and y:} \\
y=\frac{x-7}{4} \\ \\
f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-7}{4} \\
f^{-1}(3)=\frac{3-7}{4}=\frac{-4}{4}=-1 \\
\boxed{f^{-1}(3)=-1}
