Sample response: The Smith family has 2 choices to make, color
and style. By the fundamental counting principle, the product of the
number of choices of color and style must equal 8. So, there could be 1
color and 8 style choices, 2 colors and 4 styles, 4 colors and 2 styles,
or 8 colors and 1 style.

Answer:
speed of motorcycle = 40 mph
speed of car = 50 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the complete question
A car and a motorcycle leave at noon from the same location, heading in the same direction. The average speed of the car is 30 mph slower than twice the speed of the motorcycle. In two hours, the car is 20 miles ahead of the motorcycle. Find the speed of both the car and the motorcycle, in miles per hour.
Speed = distance / time
This question would be solved using simultaneous equation
let m = average speed of the motorcycle
c = average speed of the car
c = 2m - 30 equation 1
20 =(c - m) x 2 equation 2
insert equation 1 into equation 2 and divide through by 2
10 = (2m - 30) - m
solve for m
m = 40 mph
substitute for m in equation 1
2(40) - 20 = 50 mph
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q represent the number of quarters (the higher-value coin). Then 8-q is the number of dimes, and Jill's total amount in change is ...
0.25q +0.10(8-q) = 1.25
0.15q + 0.80 = 1.25 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
0.15q = 0.45 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.80
q = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15
the number of dimes is 8-q = 8-3 = 5.
Jill has 3 quarters and 5 dimes.
