Let n = number of nickels, and p = number of pennies.
The number of coins is 25, so we get this equation.
n + p = 25
The value of the coins is 0.05 per nickel, and 0.01 per penny.
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Now you have a system of equations.
n + p = 25
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Solve the first equation for n:
n = 25 - p
Now substitute into the second equation.
0.05(25 - p) + 0.01p = 0.73
1.25 - 0.05p + 0.01p = 0.73
-0.04p = -0.52
p = 13
There were 13 pennies.
Now we substitute 13 for p in n + p = 25 to find out the number of nickels.
n + 13 = 25
n = 12
There are 13 pennies and 12 nickels.
Check: 13 pennies and 12 nickels does total 25 coins.
13 * 0.01 + 12 * 0.05 = 0.13 + 0.60 = 0.73
The value is $0.73.
Our answer is correct.
The highest degree of any term is 8, so that is the degree of the polynomial.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
All triangles (3 sided polygons) have angles added up to 180, so we can do the following:
(7x-1) + (7x+8) + (5x+2) = 180° <em>- equation</em>
7x-1 + 7x+8 + 5x+2 = 180° <em>- "distribute"</em>
19x - 1 + 8 + 2 = 180°<em> - combine the x terms</em>
19x + 9 = 180° <em>- combine the integer terms</em>
19x = 171 <em>- subtract 9 form both sides</em>
x = 9 <em>- divide both sides by 19</em>
Answer:
x+5y+5=0
Step-by-step explanation:
y=5x+6
Therefore the gradient of the line = 5
Now reciprocate the gradient and negate it
i.e -1/5
let (x,y) and (-15,2) be points on the line
y-2/x-(-15)=-⅕
5y-10=-x-15
5y-10+15+x=0
x+5y+5=0
Therefore the equation of the line =
x+5y+5=0
