Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent the number of dimes Lily saved. Then the value of her coins in cents is ...
10d +100(16-d) = 520
-90d +1600 = 520 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
-90d = -1080 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1600
d = -1080/-90 = 12 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of d
Lily has 12 ten-cent coins.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x = 2 and 10
Discussion:
Approach 1:
20 = (-10)*(-2) and (-10) + (-2) = -12 the coefficients of the polynomial. Hence
x^2 -12x + 20 = ( x- 2) * ( x-10)
Approach 2:
From the quadratic formula ( a = 1, b = -12, c = 20)
x = ( -(-12) +\- sqrt( ((-12)^2 - 4*1*20) ) / (2 * 1)
= ( 12 +\- sqrt( 144-80) ) /2
= (12 +\- sqrt(64) ) /2
= (12 +\- 8 ) /2
x = ( 12 + 8) /2 = 20/2 = 10
or
x = ( 12 - 8)/ 2 = 4/2 = 2
Thank you,

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 72 u^2
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
What we know:
- Both triangles are identical
- Both rectangles are different
- There are values in units^2 given
- There are right angles
How to solve:
We need to find the area of at least one of the triangles and double it. Then, we need to find the areas of both rectangles. Finally, we need to add these areas to find the total area. The final area will be represented in units squared (u^2)
<h2>
Process:</h2>
Triangles
Set up equation A = 1/2(bh)
Substitute A = 1/2(4*3)
Simplify A = 1/2(12)
Solve A = 6
Double *2
A = 12 u^2
Rectangles
Set up equation A = lh
Substitute A = (14)(3)
Simplify A = 42 u^2
Set up equation A = lh
Substitute A = [14-(4+4)](3)
Simplify A = (14-8)(3)
Simplify A = (6)(3)
Multiply A = 18 u^2
Total Area
Set up equation A = R1+R2+T
Substitute A = 42 + 18 + 12
Simplify A = 60 + 12
Solve A = 72 u^2

Answer: 72 u^2</h3>
