Answer:
250 nickles
Step-by-step explanation:
Nickles and dimes are coins with different currency values. One nickel(N) is equal to 5 cents while one dime(D) is equal to 10 cents. The ratio of nickel:dime is 5:7, to put into the equation it will be:
N/D= 5/7
7N=5D ---> 1st equation
There are 350 dimes, the equation will be:
D=350 ----> 2nd equation
We can find out the number of nickels by substitute the 2nd equation into the first. The calculation will be
7N=5D
N= 5D/7
N=5(350)/7
N= 250

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
- The denominator is the bottom value of a fraction, therefore we can discount 9/2
- 1/9 = 2/18. 2/18 is smaller than 3/18 so we can discount 1/9
- 50/100 = 0.5
5/9 = 0.55555...
0.55555... is greatest than 0.5, therefore we can discount 5/9
Answer:
- using the rule given: 2.5
- using an exponential rule: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5
_____
We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...
an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)
Then, for n = 1, we have ...
a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7
_____
When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.
