All of the answer choices that you are given are incorrect. I have calculated it in all different ways and get the same thing and it is none of those. The correct answer would be -75 though.
Answer:
19.2
Step-by-step explanation:
You use the pyth.
15^2+12^2=369
Then find the square root of 392 which is 19.2
I hope this helps! have a good day :)
Let d = # of dimes
Let q = # of quarters
equation #1: number of coins
d + q = 1234
equation #2: value of coins
0.10d + 0.25q = 290.05
Solve #1 for d:
d=1234-q
Sub #1 into #2 and solve for q:
0.10d + 0.25q = 290.05
0.10(1234-q) + 0.25q = 290.05
123.4 - 0.10q + 0.25q = 290.05
0.15q = 166.65
q = 1111
Now go back to d=1234-q and sub in 1111 for q to find d:
d = 1234 - 1111
d = 123
1111 quarters and 123 dimes.
So this is direct proportional question
so y=(k)x
sub y=48 and x=6
48=6k
k=8
now you got a constant k
now sub x=3
y=(8)(3)
=24
