Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up two equations with the information given-- and things you know from experience: a penny is worth 1 cent and a nickel is worth 5 cents. $ 2.38 is 238 cents (so you can eliminate decimals for now)
Put those values into an equation about the total value:
p + 5n = 238
and you know the total number of coins is 66.
p + n = 66
get a value for p by "solving" (subtract n from both sides)
p = 66-n
Substitute that value for p in the first equation. Then solve.
(66 -n) + 5n = 238
4n = 238-66 Then isolate n by dividing both sides by 4
n = 172/4
n = 43 Substitute that in the second equation, then solve for p
p + 43 = 66 p = 66 - 43
p = 23
So Chuck has 23 pennies and 43 nickels

Answer:
4.75%
Step-by-step explanation:
When simple interest is charged, the payback amount is ...
A = P(1 +rt) . . . . for annual rate r and a term of t years
Using the given values, we can solve for r.
10280 = 8000(1 +6r)
1.285 = 1 +6r . . . . . . . . divide by 8000
0.285 = 6r . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1
0.285/6 = r = 0.0475 = 4.75% . . . . . . divide by 6; express as %
Theo paid interest at the rate of 4.75%.
Answers:
- a = 8
- r = -15%
- y = 4.9 approximately
Note: your teacher may want you to type in a positive value for r
=========================================================
Explanation:
The given equation y = 8(1-0.15)^t is in the form y = a(1+r)^t
We have a = 8 as the initial value, or what we start with.
r = -0.15 converts to -15%, so we have a decay of 15%
Plug in t = 3 to find the corresponding value of y
y = 8(1-0.15)^t
y = 8(1-0.15)^3
y = 8(0.85)^3
y = 8(0.614125)
y = 4.913
y = 4.9
