Answer:

N=250

Step-by-step explanation:

"twice as many nickels as dimes" means N =2D [eq1]

"collection of nickels and dimes is worth $25" means

5N + 10D = 2500 [eq2]

(To avoid using decimal points, PLZ express everything in cents.)

Substitution (substitute N from eq1 into eq2]:

5(2D) + 10D = 2500

10D + 10D = 2500

20D = 2500

D = 125

N=2D [eq1 again]

N=2(125)

N=250

Check:

Is 5(250) + 10(125) = 2500 ?

1250 + 1250 = 2500 ?

2500 = 2500 ?yes

Write the equation of the circle in standard form: Center (7,0) R=1

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$(x-7)^2+y^2=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Equation of a circle: $(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$ where the circle is centered at (h,k) and the radius is r

1) Plug in the given center (7,0)

$(x-7)^2+(y-0)^2=r^2\\(x-7)^2+y^2=r^2$

2) Plug in the radius (1)

$(x-7)^2+y^2=1^2\\(x-7)^2+y^2=1$

I hope this helps!

melomori [17]

Answer:

A. False

B. True

C. False

D. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Only three dimensional subspace for R3 is R3 itself. In a 3 d subspace there are 3 basis vectors which are all linearly independent vectors. Dimension of a vector is number of subspace in that vector. Finite set can generate infinite dimension vector space.
