Answer:

19 dimes and 9 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Model the situation using two equations, then solve the system.

let n be number of nickels and d be number of dimes.

n + d = 28     <= This equation is about the number of coins.

0.05n + 0.10d =  2.35   <=This equation is about the worth in dollars.

Rearrange n + d = 28.

n = 28 - d

Now we can substitute this equation into the other one.

Sub n =28-d at the "d" variable for the equation 0.05n + 0.10d =  2.35

0.05n + 0.10d =  2.35

Now there is only one variable.

0.05(28 - d) + 0.10d =  2.35   <=distribute this

0.05(28 - d) + 0.10d =  2.35

1.4 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 2.35   <=combine like terms

1.4 + 0.05d = 2.35    <= begin to isolate d

0.05d = 2.35 - 1.4

0.05d = 0.95

d = 0.95/0.05

d = 19

Now that we know d=19, we can substitute it into any equation.

Choose the equation n + d = 28 because the numbers are easier.

n + d = 28

n + 19 = 28    <=isolate n

n = 28 - 19

n = 9

Since n=9 and d=19, Kay has 9 nickels and 19 dimes.

Which best describes the range of the function f(x) = 2/3(6)x after it has been reflected over the x-axis?
liq [111]
Your post (" <span>f(x) = 2/3(6)x ") would be clearer and less ambiguous if you'd please format it as follows:

</span><span>f(x) = (2/3)(6)^x.  The (2/3) shows that 2/3 is the coefficient of the exponential function 6^x.  Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation.

Start by graphing   </span><span>f(x) = (2/3)(6)^x.  The y-intercept, obtained by setting x=0, is (0, 2/3).  Can you show that the value of f(x) is (2/3)*6, or 4, at x=1, (2/3)*6^2, or 24, at x = 2, and so on?  What happens if x becomes increasingly smaller?  The graph approaches, but does not touch, the x-axis.

If you complete this graphing assignment, then all you'd have to do is to flip the whole graph over vertically, reflecting it in the x-axis.  You'll see that the graph never touchs the x-axis.  Therefore, the range of this flipped graph is (-infinity, 0).</span>

Use the properties of exponents to rewrite y=e^-0.75t in the form of a(1-r)^t
Ivahew [28]

Answer: y = (1 - 0.527)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

y=e^(-0.75t)


y=(e^-0.75)^t


y= 0.47236655^t


1 - 0.47236655 = 0.52763345

y = (1 - 0.527)^t
