Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = number of dimes

2.80 = 0.1d + 0.25 (d + 8 )

2.80 = 0.1d + 0.25d + 2            Combine like terms

2.80 = 0.35d + 2                       Subtract 2 from both sides

0.80 = 0.35d                             Divide both sides by 0.35

d ≈ 2.29

No, it's not possible to have more quarters than dimes when the total is $2.80 because it's not possible to have part of a dime.

Solve x2 + 12x + 6 = 0 using the completing-the-square method.
exis [7]
X^2+12x+6=0  subtract 6 from both sides...

x^2+12x=-6  halve linear coefficient, square it, and add it to both sides...

x^2+12x+36=30  now the left side is a perfect square...

(x+6)^2=30  take square root of both sides...

x+6=30^(1/2)  subtract 6 from both sides...

x=-6-30^(1/2) and -6+30^(1/2)
