Answer:

She has 23 nickels and 5 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number of nickles and d = the number of dimes.

The number of each = 28. Set up the equation:

n + d = 28

Solve for n:

n = 28 - d

The total amount is $1.65 or 165 cents:

5n + 10d = 165

Substitute:

5(28 - d) + 10d = 165

140 - 5d + 10d = 165

140 + 5d = 165

5d = 165 - 140

5d = 25

d = 5, the number of dimes.

Solve for n:

n = 28 - d

n = 28 - 5 = 23, the number of nickles.

Proof:

5n + 10d = 165

5(23) + 10(5) = 165

115 + 50 = 165

165 = 165

Hope this Helps! Have an Awesome Day!!! <3

Answer:

Sofia has <u>23 nickles & 5 dimes</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of each is 28

Form an equation:

n+d=28

Solve for n:

n=28-d

The total amount is $1.65 for 165 cents:

5n+10d=165

Substitute:

5(28-d)+10d=165

140-5d+10d=165

140+5d=165

5d=165-140

5d=25

d=25/5

d=5

Solve for n:

n=28-d

n=28-5=23 ⇒ the number of nickles

<u>CHECK:</u>

5n+10d=165

5(23)+10(5)=165

115+50=165

165=165

<em>hope this helps....</em>

I dont get this at all
zhenek [66]
Continuous vs discrete is if you can count vs. measure the results. For example: you can run 13. 5 miles but you can't have 13.5 dogs. Miles (measurable) are continuous while dogs (countable) are discrete. 

Qualitative results are when a result is not a number, and qualitative is when the result is a number. For example: if you're doing a lab and a result is either going to be "blue" or "green", that's qualitative, since those aren't number values. However, if you were measuring distance, that would be qualitative, since you would get a result of "6 meters" or "2.5 inches", which are numerical values. 

The scale of measurement are the units in which you are measuring something it. For example: distance has units of inches, feet, miles, etc... and weight has units of grams, kilograms, tons, etc...

Hope this helps! -Alex :)

Where will her cut be located? Round to the nearest tenth. x = (StartFraction m Over m + n EndFraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1 A
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is 25.2 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that number line goes from 0 to 60 which can be used to represent a ribbon of length = 60 inches.

2 inches of the ribbon are frayed so actual length = 58 inches

Please refer to the attached image for the ribbon.

A is at 0

C is at 60

B is at 2

P is the point to divide the remaining ribbon in the ratio 2:3.

Part AB of the ribbon is frayed.

BP: PC = 2:3

Let BP = 2x and PC = 3x

Now, BP + PC = BC = 58 = 2x + 3x = 5x

So,

5x =58\\\Rightarrow x =11.6

BP = 2\times x = 2 \times 11.6 = 23.2\ inches

Location of the Cut = 2 + 23.2 = <em>25.2 inches</em>

<em></em>

Alternatively, we can use the formula directly:

x = \dfrac{m} {m + n } (x_2 - x_1) + x_1

x_1 = 2\\x_2 = 60

m: n is the ratio 2:3

x = \dfrac{2} {2 +3 } (60- 2) + 2\\\Rightarrow 0.4 (58 )+2\\\Rightarrow 23.2+2 \\\Rightarrow \bold{25.2\ inches}
