Answer:

there are 59 nickels, 12 quarters, and 213 dimes

Explanation:

  • let n = nickels
  • let q = quarters
  • let d = dimes

first step:

d = 3 (n + q) = 3n + 3q

d + n + q = 284

0.10d + 0.05n + 0.25q = 27.25

second step:

3n + 3q + n + q = 284

0.10 (3n + 3q) + 0.5n + 0.25q = 27.25

third step:

4n + 4q = 284

0.3n + 0.3q + 0.05n + 0.25q = 27.25

fourth step:

n + q = 71

0.35n + 0.55q = 27.25

fifth step:

replace q = 71 - n

0.35n + 0.55(71 - n) = 27.25

sixth step:

0.35n + 39.05 - 0.55n = 27.25

seventh step:

11.8 = 0.2n

eighth step:

n = 59

q = 71 - 59 = 12

d = 284 - n - q = 284 - 59 - 12 = 213

Dovator [93]
The answer is true. Individuals who need to work for themselves frequently like to work their business, at any rate at first, as a sole proprietorship. Leeway of the sole proprietorship is that it is a generally simple and cheap type of business to set up. One disadvantage of a sole proprietorship is that the proprietor has boundless obligation. Notwithstanding, right now, Eric isn't stressed over hazard. The boundless risk factor does not seem, by all accounts, to be an issue for him.

Discuss the tradeoffs between fiber-optic and satellite communication in terms of costs, signal capacity, signaling method, inte
mylen [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

I will split this answer into two options...

Fiber Optic communications work by sending data through beams of light through a series of fiber cables. This allows for data transfer at incredibly high speeds and with an almost non-existent probability of data loss. Since cables need to be connected from one end-point to another this form of communication becomes more expensive and the capability of reconfiguration becomes incredibly difficult. The likelihood of failure is also very low due to the nature of the technology.

Satellite communication sends data wirelessly by beaming the data to satellites and then back down to the destination. This allows for data to be transferred worldwide but runs into the risk of interference, data loss, signal loss etc. Costs are much cheaper than Fiber Optics due to the lack of wiring. Multipoint capabilities are high since endpoints can be placed anywhere with a clear line of sight to the sky, which also means that reconfiguration capabilities are high as well.
