Answer:
The correct answer is B. 36.87
Step-by-step explanation:
The mid-point is basically the average of the coordinates. So for the x coordinate do (1+(-7))/2=-3. and for y, do (-10+7)/2=-3/2
This gives you the midpoint as (-3,-3/2)
If x = # of quarters, then, the # of dimes will be equal to 2x. The total value (z) would be equal to:
z = 0.25x + 0.10(2x)
Then, since you switch the quarters and the dimes, and you have a new total, the resulting equation will be:
1.2 + z = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)
Plug in the values you know:
1.2 + (0.25x + 0.10(2x)) = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)
Solve for x:
1.2 + (0.25x + 0.20x) = 0.50x + 0.10x
1.2 + 0.45x = 0.60x
1.2 = 0.15x
x = 1.2/0.15 = 8
This means that there are 8 Quarters in her bag right now. So, the amount of dimes is just 2x which is 16. So your answer will be:
She has 8 Quarters and 16 Dimes in her bag right now. Or, $3.60.
If this doesn't make sense, then tell me. I have some resources where I got the answer from to put it into simplest terms. I have the website if you want.
HI THIS IS VERY HARD CAN U GIVE ME MORE TIME
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>y+1=-2(x-5)</u> - Point Slope Form
<u>y=-2x+9</u> - Slope Intercept Form
<u></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
We will be using point-slope formula, as attached in a picture below.
1) Plug in the slope -2 as "m" in point slope form, along with the two points, (5, -1)
<u>y+1=-2(x-5)</u>
2) Next, if you want to put the line into slope-intercept form, you will need to distribute -2 to x and -5:
y+1=-2x+10
3) Now, subtract 1 from both sides:
<u>y=-2x+9</u>
