Answer:

4 × ( 9 + 2z)

Step-by-step explanation:

36 + 8z = 4 × (9) + 4 × (2z) ; so here 4 is a common factor

= 4 × ( 9 + 2z)

we can also write it like this

36 + 8z = 2 × ( 18 + 4z)

A cash box contains $74 made up of quarters, half-dollars, and one-dollar

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

25 one-dollar coins, 16 half-dollar coins, and 164 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up equations based on the information given:

$0.25q+0.50h+1.00d=74$

$\displaystyle{h=\frac{3}{5}d+1}$

$q=4(d+h)$

Then, substitute q in the first equation with the expression from the third equation:

$0.25[4(d+h)]+0.50h+1.00d=74\\1d+1h+0.50h+1.00d=74\\2d+1.5h=74$

Next, substitute h in that equation with the expression from the second equation:

$\displaystyle{2d+1.5(\frac{3}{5}d+1)=74}$

$2d+0.9d+1.5=74\\2.9d+1.5=74$

Solve for d, the number of one-dollar coins:

$2.9d+1.5=74\\2.9d=72.5\\d=25$

Substitute 25 for d in the second equation to find h, the number of half-dollar coins:

$\displaystyle{h=\frac{3}{5}d+1}$

$\displaystyle{h=\frac{3}{5}(25)+1}$

$h=15+1\\h=16$

Substitute 25 for d and 16 for h in the third equation to find q, the number of quarters:

$q=4(d+h)\\q=4(25+16)\\q=4(41)\\q=164$

Then, verify that the coins total $74:

$0.25(164)+0.50(16)+1.00(25)=74\\41+8+25=74\\74=74\\\text{Check.}$

Next, verify that the number of half-dollar coins is one more than three-fifths of the number of one-dollar coins:

$\displaystyle{h=\frac{3}{5}d+1}$

$\displaystyle{16=\frac{3}{5}(25)+1}$

$16 = 15 + 1\\16 = 16\\\text{Check.}$

Finally, verify that the number of quarters is four times the number one-dollar and half-dollar coins together:

$q=4(d+h)\\164=4(25+16)\\164=4(41)\\164=164\\\text{Check.}$

From Denver yo Chicago =3in if the scale is 1in=300miles

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Basically a proportion so it’d be 1in/300 mi = 3in/x mi
cross multiple that out and you get 300•3=x and then just solve for x. the answer should be 900 miles.

What is the derivative of this function?

Alex17521 [72]

$\bf y=\sqrt{x}-\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^x\implies y=x^{\frac{1}{2}}-\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^x\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{2}x^{\frac{1}{2}-1}-\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^xln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{2}x^{-\frac{1}{2}}-\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^xln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)\implies 
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}-\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^xln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)$
