Forty-two people charter a bus for $788. Estimate the amount each person pays. Your answer

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

If 42 people equally share the bus price off 788 dollars then ech person would be expected to pay 788/42 = $18.76 (2dp) though I suppose if you needed to estimate it, you would round 788 to 800 and 42 down to 40 which would give you 800/40 = 20 dollars per person which is a pretty close estimate.

Hope this helped!

joe has a piggy bank with $8.90 split upon nickels, dimes, and quarters. The piggy bank contains 76 coins in all. The number of
kozerog [31]

Answer:

There are 38 dimes, 22 nickels and 16 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n, d and q represent the # of nickels, dimes and quarters respectively.

Then n + d + q = 76

The value of a nickel is $0.05; that of a dime is $0.10, and that of a quarter is $0.25.

Thus, the value of n nickels is $0.05n (and so on).

The total value of the coins is $0.05n + $0.10d + $0.25q = $8.90.

d = n + q allows us to eliminate d.

First, n + d + q = 76 becomes n + (n + q) + q = 76, and second:

$0.05n + $0.10(n + q) + $0.25q = $8.90.  Here we have succeeded in eliminating d from two different equations, and now we have these two different equations in two unknowns (n and q), which is solvable.

Simplifying both equations, we get:

2n + 2q = 76 and

5n + 10n + 10q + 25q = 890, or 15n + 35q = 890

Let's use the substitution method of solving linear equations:

Rewrite 2n  + 2q = 76 as n + q = 38, or n = 38 - q.  Substituting this result into the second equation, we get:

15(38 - q) + 35 q = 890, or

  570 - 15q + 35q = 890, or

   570 + 20 q = 890.  Then 20q = 890 - 570 = 320, and q = 320/20 = 16.

There are 16 quarters.  Thus, the number of nickels is n = 38 - 16 = 22.

Finally, since n + d + q = 76, 22 + d + 16 = 76, or:

22 + d = 60, or d = 60 - 22 = 38.

There are 38 dimes, 22 nickels and 16 quarters.

The equatorial radius of Earth is approximately 6 × 103 km, while the equatorial radius of Saturn is approximately 6 × 104 km. W
Citrus2011 [14]
If by 104 and 103 you meant 10^4 and 10^3 the difference would be 10 because you subtract them as exponents and get 10^1 which is just 10. If you meant 104 and 103 as they are then the difference would be 6 as 104 x 6 is 6 more than 103 x 6.
