Answer:

There are 6 dimes and 9 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number of dimes and the number of quarters by d and q.

Then d + q = 15, or q = 15 - d.

Also, ($0.25)q + ($0.10)d = $2.85, or 5q + 2d = 57.

Substituding 15 - d for q, we get 5(15 - d) + 2d = 57, or

75 - 5d + 2d = 57, or

75 - 3d = 57, or

3d = 18.  Thus, there are 6 dimes.  Since q = 15 - d, q = 15 - 6 = 9.

There are 6 dimes and 9 quarters.

HELP<br> what is the value of “ c”
Alex

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

When you match the form

... ax² + bx + c = 0

to the equation

... 3x² + 5x + 7 = 0

it is reasonable to conclude that ...

... a = 3, b = 5, c = 7.

_____

The question presumes you are familiar with the form

... ax² +bx +c = 0

which is often used as the representation of a general quadratic equation. This lets us use a, b, and c instead of specific numbers, to talk about ways of factoring, graphing, or solving equations like this.

Alba needed to know about how much the sum of 19.6, 23.8, and 38.4 is. She correctly rounded each of these numbers to the neares
Goryan [66]
If the number after the decimal is 1-4 you drop it, if it's 5-9 you add one to the whole number. In 19.6, 6 is 5-9 so you add one to 19- 19.6=20. In 23.8, 8 is 5-9 so add one to 23- 23.8=24. In 38.4, 4 is 1-4 so you drop it- 38.4=38. So the answer is C. 20, 24, 38 :) hope this helps
