Andrews [41]

Answer:

Number of quarters → 15

Number of dimes → 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of dimes I have = y

And number of quarters = x

Since, I have amount in my pocket = $2

Therefore, 0.10y + 0.25x = 2

100(0.10y + 0.25x) = 100×2

25x + 10y = 200

5x + 2y = 40

2y = -5x + 40

y = -2.5x + 20 ---------(1)

Total number of coins in my pocket = 17

x + y = 17

y = -x + 17 ---------(2)

By using a graphing calculator we can graph these two lines (As attached)

Solution of the given system of equations will be the point of intersection of these lines.

Solution → (2, 15)

Number of quarters → 15

Number of dimes → 2

F(x)=6x^2 +10x−1

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: It has two distinct real zeros.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula that is used to calculate the discriminant of a Quadratic function is the one shown below:

$D=b^2-4ac$

In this case you have the following Quadractic function provided in the exercise:

$f(x)=6x^2 +10x-1$

Let's make it equal to 0:

$0=6x^2 +10x-1$

You can identify that:

$a=6\\\\b=10$

Knowing these values, you can substitute them into the formula and then evaluate:

$D=10^2-4(6)(-1)\\\\D=124$

Therefore, since:

$D>0$

You can determine that the it has two distinct real roots.

Find sinϴ and cosϴ if tanϴ=1/4 and sinϴ>0

_______________

$\mathsf{tan\,\theta=\dfrac{1}{4}\qquad\qquad(sin\,\theta\ \textgreater \ 0)}\\\\\\
\mathsf{\dfrac{sin\,\theta}{cos\,\theta}=\dfrac{1}{4}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{4\,sin\,\theta=cos\,\theta\qquad\quad(i)}$

Square both sides:

$\mathsf{(4\,sin\,\theta)^2=(cos\,\theta)^2}\\\\
\mathsf{4^2\,sin^2\,\theta=cos^2\,\theta}\\\\
\mathsf{16\,sin^2\,\theta=cos^2\,\theta\qquad\qquad(but,~cos^2\,\theta=1-sin^2\,\theta)}\\\\
\mathsf{16\,sin^2\,\theta=1-sin^2\,\theta}$

$\mathsf{16\,sin^2\,\theta+sin^2\,\theta=1}\\\\
\mathsf{17\,sin^2\,\theta=1}\\\\
\mathsf{sin^2\,\theta=\dfrac{1}{17}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{17}}}\\\\\\
\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\pm\,\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{17}}}$

Since $\mathsf{sin\,\theta}$ is positive, you can discard the negative sign. So,

$\mathsf{sin\,\theta=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{17}}\qquad\quad\checkmark}$

Substitute this value back into $\mathsf{(i)}$ to find $\mathsf{cos\,\theta:}$

$\mathsf{4\cdot \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{17}}=cos\,\theta}\\\\\\
\mathsf{cos\,\theta=\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{17}}\qquad\quad\checkmark}$

I hope this helps. =)

There is a bag with only red marbles

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

14 red marbles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If I am reading this correctly, since the probablitly of choosing a blue marble is 7/9, then 7/9 of the bag must be blue marbles. That amounts to 7/9*63=49 and the bag containing 49 blue marbles. Therefor, 63-49=14 is the number of red marbles in the mag.
