Answer:
x = 6
y = 3
6 twenty-five paisa coin
3 fifty-paisa coins
Step-by-step explanation:
x -----> twenty-five paisa coin
y -----> fifty-paisa coins
0.25x + 0.5y = 3.00 per 100
x = 2y
25x + 50y = 300
x = 2y
25(2y) + 50y = 300
50y + 50y = 300
100y = 300
y = 300/100
y = 3
x = 2y
x = 2(3)
x = 6
-1 Let's say the set of downs starts at the 20 yard line (maybe the kicking team kicked deep, the receiving team took a knee and so play starts at the 20).
Ok - we're at the 20. First down - they advance 5 yards. So we're now at the 25. We can write that mathematically as:
20
+
5
=
25
So the second play they get sacked deep and lose 6 yards. So we subtract 6:
25
−
6
=
19
So what's the change in yardage for the 2 plays? We are on the 19 and started at the 20, so we can write:
19
−
20
=
−
1
and this makes sense because we know we advanced 5 and fell back 6
Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
(5 x)/4 = x/2 - 3
Put each term in x/2 - 3 over the common denominator 2: x/2 - 3 = x/2 - 6/2:
(5 x)/4 = x/2 - 6/2
x/2 - 6/2 = (x - 6)/2:
(5 x)/4 = (x - 6)/2
Multiply both sides by 4:
(4×5 x)/4 = (4 (x - 6))/2
(4×5 x)/4 = 4/4×5 x = 5 x:
5 x = (4 (x - 6))/2
4/2 = (2×2)/2 = 2:
5 x = 2 (x - 6)
Expand out terms of the right hand side:
5 x = 2 x - 12
Subtract 2 x from both sides:
5 x - 2 x = (2 x - 2 x) - 12
5 x - 2 x = 3 x:
3 x = (2 x - 2 x) - 12
2 x - 2 x = 0:
3 x = -12
Divide both sides of 3 x = -12 by 3:
(3 x)/3 = (-12)/3
3/3 = 1:
x = (-12)/3
The gcd of -12 and 3 is 3, so (-12)/3 = (3 (-4))/(3×1) = 3/3×-4 = -4:
Answer: x = -4

We have that
Let y be the first root, then y - 6 will be the second one. Since both roots make the quadratic equation equal to 0, we have that:
Solve for y:
Plug in y = 5/2 into original quadratic equation and solve for c:
So, the answer is
c = -35/4
