<h2>Answer:</h2>
  • The number of nickels coins are : 50
  • and the number of quarter coins are: 25
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let n denote the number of nickels.

and q denote the number of quarters.

1 nickel=0.05 dollar

and 1 quarter=0.25 dollar

Hence, we have:

0.05n+0.25q=8.75

( Since, Ivan has $8.75 in nickels and quarters in his desk drawer )

On multiplying both side of the equation by 100 we have:

5n+25q=875

on dividing both side of the equation by 5 we have:

n+5q=175-----------------(1)

Also, n=2q---------------(2)

( Since, the number of nickels is twice the number of quarters )

Hence, on putting equation (2) in equation (1) we have:

2q+5q=175

i.e.

7q=175

i.e.  q=25

and on putting the value of q in equation (2) we have:

n=50

When Ivan divides his coins into groups of 2 nickels and 1 quarter, worth $0.35, he find that he has $8.75/$0.35 = 25 such groups.

Ivan has 25 quarters and 50 nickels.

36a^2+24b^2=12( +2b^2)
vlabodo [156]
The blank space is found by dividing 36a^2 by 12, which is equal to 3a^2
To get to this answer you need to
1. divide the both sides of the equation by 12.
2. subtract 2b^2 from both sides. 
You will see that the blank space equals 3a<span>^2 then</span>

Someone please help me!

The standard form of a parabole is: (y-k) = a(x-h)², Where (h , k) are the coordinates of the vertex
In the example Vertex (3,1) ,
so (y-1) = a(x-3)². (a)
Now let's calculate a. The y-intercept coordinates(0 , 10), Replace in (a) x by 0 & y by 10:
(10-1) = a(0 - 3)²
9 = 9a and a=1
<u />The equation becomes : y-1 = (x-3)², Expand (y-1) = x²-6x+9
<u />and finally y = x² - 6x +10 (ANSWER C)
