Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40

then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n

we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40

then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40

then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5

therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels

Answer:

y=3/4x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

I know the last box has a plus sign in front of it but it's still -2 since the y- intercept is at -2. It's the same thing but I just wanted to make sure you knew that in the last box, you still put -2.

Sorry if what I just said above is confusing, i don't know how to explain it better...

Find the volume of the triangular prism in the picture shown. Round your answer to the
Olenka [21]

Given:

A figure of a triangular prism.

Height of triangular base = 9\dfrac{2}{3} yd

Base of triangular base = 4 yd

Height of prism = 4 yd.

To find:

The volume of the triangular prism.

Solution:

Volume of a triangular prism is:

V=Bh              ...(i)

Where, B is the area of triangular base and h is the height of the prism.

Area of triangular base is:

B=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height

B=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times 9\dfrac{2}{3}

B=2\times \dfrac{29}{3}

B=\dfrac{58}{3}

Putting B=\dfrac{58}{3} and h=4 in (i), we get

V=\dfrac{58}{3}\times 4

V=\dfrac{232}{3}

V=77.33...

V\approx 77.3

The volume of the triangular prism is 77.3 cubic yards. Therefore, the correct option is 2.

What is the surface area of this composite solid?______________ square feet 242 319 363 517
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

<h2>The right answer is 415.4 cubic feet.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can observe in the image attached, the composite figure is formed by a square prism and a pyramid on top.

We need to find the volum of each part separately.

<h3> Square prism.</h3>

V_{prims}=11 \times 11 \times 2=242 \ ft^{3}

<h3>Square pyramid.</h3>

First, we need to find the height of the pyramid. We already know the height of each triangular face of the pyramid, which divides equally the side.

Let's use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the height of the pyramid.

7^{2}=h^{2} +(5.5)^{2}\\  49-30.25=h^{2}\\ h=\sqrt{18.75} \approx 4.3

The height is 4.3 feet, approximately.

Now, we find the volume of the pyramid

V_{pyramid}=\frac{1}{3}(11 \times 11 \times 4.3) \approx 173.4ft^{3}

The sum of both figures represents the total volume of the composite figure

V_{total}=242+173.4=415.4ft^{3}

Therefore, the right answer is 415.4 cubic feet.
