Answer: Phil has 33 dimes, and 17 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of nickels be X, and dimes be Y.

X + Y = 50.

Since nickels stand for 5 cents, or 0.05 dollars, and dimes are 10 cents, or 0.10 dollars, we can also write the total worth as:

0.05*X + 0.10*Y = 4.15

Multiply this last equation by 20:

20*0.05*X + 20*0.10*Y = 20*4.15

Simplify:

X + 2*Y = 83

Subtract the first equation (X + Y = 50) from this one:

Y = 33.

Thus Phil has 33 dimes, and 17 nickels.

Add 3/7 + 8/9 . Simplify the answer and write as a mixed number
Fudgin [204]
You will get both of the fractions over the same denominator, so it will be 27/63 and 56/63, then you will add the two numerators, so it will then come out to 83/63, and you will then simplify that by subtracting 63 from 83, and will get 1  20/63

PLEASE HELP ME I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT TO DO COULD SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE THANK YOU I REALLY APPRECIATE IT

a.) A flat pattern that could be folded to make a 3-dimensional figure is called a "net." You can draw one for Tyler's bench by picking any surface of that rectangular prism and making a drawing of it. At any edge you choose, you can add the adjacent surface to your drawing. Keep doing this until all 6 surfaces are shown in their correct relationship to adjacent surfaces. An example is attached. (This is not the only way the net can be drawn.)

Interior lines of the net can be solid or dashed as you wish. I have shown some of them dashed so as to better illustrate how the area can be computed.

b.) The area of this figure represents the surface area of the rectangular prism. The dimensions of each surface will be 1×1.5, 1×5, or 1.5×5. There are two surfaces with each pair of dimensions. (Perhaps you can find each of these rectangles on the net diagram. Ones with the same dimensions are opposite faces of the rectangular prism.) We can add up the areas of the smaller rectangles to find the total, or we can take advantage of the drawing and divide the area into a smaller number of larger chunks that may make the computation easier.

For example, the rectangle AI that is shaded red is 5×4 in size, for a total of 20 ft². The rectangle KN that is shaded green is 8×1 in size, for a total of 8 ft². Then the total amount of cloth Tyler needs to reupholster his bench is

... 20 ft² + 8 ft² = 28 ft²

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

1. y² - 3x - 18

2. 4x² - 33x + 35

3. 12x² - 11x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

All we do with these questions are expanding the factored binomials. Use FOIL:

1. y² + 3y - 6y - 18

y² - 3y - 18

2. 4x² - 28x - 5x + 35

4x² - 33x + 35

3. 12x² - 3x - 8x + 2

12x² - 11x + 2
