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.

Two gears are connected and are rotating simultaneously. The smaller gear has a radius of 4 inches, and the larger gear has a ra
pychu [463]
Draw a diagram to illustrate the problem as shown below.

When the smaller gear rotates through a revolution, it sweeps an arc length of
2π(4) = 8π inches.

Part 1
The same arc length is swept by the larger gear. The central angle of the larger gear, x, is
7x = 8π
x = (8π)/7 radians = (8π)/7 * (180/π) = 205.7°

Answer: 205.7° (nearest tenth)

Part 2
When the larger gear makes one rotation, it sweeps an arc length of 
2π(7) = 14π inches.
If the central angle for the smaller gear is y radians, then
4y = 14π
y = 3.5π radians = (3.5π)/2π revolutions = 1.75 revolutions

Answer:
The smaller gear makes 1.75 rotations

What’s the circumference of this shape?xx
VikaD [51]

The hypotenuse of the triangle would be the diameter of the semi circle.

Using the Pythagorean theorem you can find that.

8^2 + 6^2 = x^2

64 +36 = x^2

100 = x^2

x = √100

x = 10

The diameter is 10, now find the circumference.

Circumference = diameter x PI = 10 x 3.14 = 31.4

Since it is a semi circle, the circumference would be 1/2 of that.

31.4 / 2 = 15.7

The perimeter would be 8 + 6 + 15.7 = 29.7
