Answer:

there are 9 quarters and 19 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of dimes and y the number of quarters

-dimes: 0.1x

-quarters: 0.25y

-the total amount of coins : x + y = 28  

=> x = 28 - y

We have the equation:

0.25y + 0.1x = 4.15

0.25y + 0.1(28 - y) = 4.15

0.25y + 2.8 - 0.1y = 4.15

0.15y = 1.35

y = 9

x = 28 - y

  = 28 - 9

  = 19

Find an equation of the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9). Write the equation in the form Ax + By = C.
8090 [49]

Answer:

- 2x +  y  = - 1 , so the B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

+ Because of "the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9)", that means the line has the equation y = ax + b where a = (9-3)/(5-2)= 6/3= 2

+ So the equation is y = 2x + b.

+ Then we replace x= 2 and y= 3 into y = 2x + b for finding  like:

3 = 2*2 + b or 3 = 4 + b, so we find b = 3 - 4 = - 1.

+ The equation of this line is y = 2x - 1 or in the form:

                                  2x - y - 1 = 0 (or -2x + y = -1)

Have a good day!
