kompoz [17]

Answer:

10 nickels and 10 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of coins: 20

Vaiue of coins = $3.00

Required

Number of Nickels and Quarters;

<em>Let N =Nickels and Q =Quarters</em>

The total coins is represented as:

N + Q = 20

1 nickel is equivalent to $0.05 and 1 quarter is equivalent to $0.25; So

0.05N + 0.25Q = 3

Make N the subject of formula in the first equation

N = 20 - Q

Substitute this in the second equation

0.05(20 - Q) + 0.25Q = 3

1 - 0.05Q + 0.25Q = 3

Collect like terms

-0.05Q + 0.25Q = 3 - 1

0.2Q = 2

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * 0.2Q = 2 * 5

Q = 10

Recall that N = 20 - Q

N = 20 - 10

N = 10

Find the coordinates of the midpoint M of the segment with the given endpoints. Then find the distance between the two points. R
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Midpoint (-2,4)

distance nearest tenth = 8.9

The approximate distance = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulas

PQ midpoint = (x2 + x1)/2, (y2 + y1)/2

distance d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 )

Givens

x2 = -4

x1 = 0

y2 = 1

y1 = 7

Solution

M(PQ) = (-4+0)/2, (1 + 7)/2

M(PQ) = -2, 4

The midpoint is -2,4

The distance = sqrt( (4 - 0)^2 + (1 + 7)^2 )

The distance = sqrt(16 + 64)

The distance = sqrt(80)

The distance = 4√5           exactly

The distance = 8.94    

The distance = 8.9            To the nearest tenth

Question 2

The distance is rounded to the nearest whole number which is 9.
