Answer:

There are 8 dimes there.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved used a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of nickels.

y is the number of dimes.

19 coins

This means that x + y = 19.

A nickel is worth $0.05. A dime is worth $0.1. The total of these coins is $1.35. So

0.05x + 0.1y = 1.35

How many dimes are there?

We have to find y.

From the first equation: x = 19 - y.

Replacing in the second:

0.05(19 - y) + 0.1y = 1.35

0.95 - 0.05y + 0.1y = 1.35

0.05y = 0.4

y = 0.4/0.05

y = 8

There are 8 dimes there.

The tires on your bicycle have a radius of 8 inches. How many rotations does each tire make when you travel 700 feet? Round your
Inessa [10]
"One rotation" would be the circumference of the wheel, which is

C = 2*pi*r, or  (here)  C = 2*pi*(8 inches) = 16*pi inches.

                                                                       1 ft
Convert this to feet:  16*pi inches  times  ---------------
                                                                   12 inches

Here "inches" cancels out and you are left with (4/3)pi ft.

So, one rotation of the wheel moves you and your bike forward (4/3)pi ft.

Divide this into 700 feet:

700 ft            2100 
------------- = --------- rotations = 525 rotations (answer)
(4/3) pi ft        4

balandron [24]

Answer:

x=-16/3 (-5.33)

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-2)+4x=10(x+1)

3x-6+4x=10x+10

7x-6=10x+10

-6-10=10x-7x

-16=3x

x=-16/3
