Since C is 2mi east of A and 2mi south of B, the shortest distance from A to B would be a straight line which is equal to the hypotenuse of a right triangle with a base of 2mi and a height of 2mi..

d^2=x^2+y^2

d^2=2^2+2^2

d^2=4+4

d^2=2*4

d=√(2*4)

d=2√2 mi  (exact)

d≈2.83 mi  (to nearest hundredth of a mile)

den301095 [7]

Answer:

d + n = 147

0.10d + 0.05n = 11.65

d = 86, n = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of dimes = d

Number of nickels = n

Total coins = 147

Total value = $11.65

d + n = 147 (1)

0.10d + 0.05n = 11.65 (2)

From (1)

d = 147 - n

Substitute d = 147 - n into

0.10d + 0.05n = 11.65

0.10(147 - n) + 0.05n = 11.65

14.7 - 0.10n + 0.05n = 11.65

- 0.10n + 0.05n = 11.65 - 14.7

-0.05n = -3.05

n = -3.05 / -0.05

= 61

n = 61

Substitute n = 61 into

d + n = 147

d + 61 = 147

d = 147 - 61

d = 86
