Answer: 23 dimes & 7 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimes = 10¢ = $0.10
Quarters = 25¢ = $0.25
Number of dimes = x
Number of quarters = y

You can create two equations:

$\left \{ {{x + y = 30} \atop {0.10x + 0.25y =4.05}} \right.$

Rearrange x + y = 30:

$y=30-x$

Substitute it into the x-value of the other equation & solve:

$0.10x + 0.25y =0.10x + 0.25(30-x)=4.05\\0.10x+7.5-0.25x=4.05\\0.10x-0.25x=4.05-7.5\\-0.15x=-3.45\\x=\frac{-3.45}{-0.15} =23$

With the x-value, substitute it back to the original equation to find y-value:

$y=30-x=30-23=7$

Therefore, there are 23 dimes & 7 quarters.

Right triangle FGH has midsegments of 15,36, and 39 centimeters given that area of a triangle is represented by the formula A=1/

Schach [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

according to the midsegment theorem, a midsegment of a triangle is parallel to a side of a triangle and its length is 1/2 length of the side.

1/2FG= 15, SO FG=30,

1/2 GH=36 SO GH=72

AREA = 1/2(72*30)=1080 CM^2

Use the given graph to determine the limit, if it exists. (4 points)

skelet666 [1.2K]

<h3>Answer: 3</h3>

Explanation:

Refer to the graph below. It should be similar to what your teacher gave you, based off the description.

Since we're approaching 3 from the right side, this means we'll be working with the horizontal line portion. We could start at something like x = 3.2 and move closer to 3 by getting to x = 3.1 then x = 3.01 then x = 3.001 and so on. We never actually get to 3 itself.

As x gets closer to 3 from this direction, the y values are approaching 3 since every point on this horizontal line has the same y coordinate. Technically the y value is already at 3, but it's the same idea.

In terms of notation, we can write $\displaystyle \lim_{x\to3^{+}}f(x) = 3$

The portion $x \to 3^{+}$ means we're approaching 3 from the positive side, aka the right hand side on the number line.

Which system of inequalities represents reglon Z? 6

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The system of inequalities is

y\geq 3x-2

y<-(1/5)x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the equation of the solid blue line

Let

A(0,-2), B(1,1)

Find the slope of AB

m=(1+2)/(1-0)=3

The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

m=3

b=-2 - ----> the point A is the y-intercept

substitute

y=3x-2 - -----> equation of the solid blue line

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the solid line

therefore

The first inequality is

y\geq 3x-2

C(0,2), D(5,1)

step 2

Find the equation of the dashed red line

Let

Find the slope of CD

m=(1-2)/(5-0)=-1/5

The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

we have

m=-1/5

b=2 ----> the point C is the y-intercept

substitute

y=-(1/5)x+2 -----> equation of the dashed red line

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the dashed line

therefore

The second inequality is

y<-(1/5)x+2

The system of inequalities is

y\geq 3x-2

y<-(1/5)x+2
