X= number of dimes
x+6= number of quarters
5(x+6)= number of nickels
$5.40= 540 cents
Add the number of each coin and set it equal to the total in cents.
x + (x + 6) + 5(x + 6)= $5.40
multiply 5 by parentheses; change dollar total to cents
x + (x + 6) + (5 * x) + (5 * 6)= 540
x + (x + 6) + 5x + 30= 540
combine like terms
7x + 36= 540
subtract 36 from both sides
7x= 504
divide both sides by 7
x= 72 dimes
x + 6= 78 quarters
5(x + 6)= 390 nickels
CHECK
72 + 78 + 390= 540
540= 540
ANSWER: There are 72 dimes, 78 quarters and 390 nickels.
Hope this helps! :)
The percentage is 98%.
You can find this by multiplying 98% (0.98) and 150,000 to get 147,000. Then subtract 147,000 from 150,000 to get 3,000.
I hope this helps!
Question 1
The given system of equations is:
Equate the two equations:
Rewrite in standard form:
When we put x=0, in y=3x +6, we get:
One solution is (0,6)
When we put x=-2, into y=3x+6, we get:
Another solution is (-2,0)
The solutions are; (0,6) and (-2,0)
Question 2:
The function is
Let us put x=-x,
This gives:
We can observe that:
This is the property of an even function.
Question 3:
The given function is
The average rate of change of f(x) from x=a to x=b is given as:
This is the slope of the secant line connecting the two points on f(x)
From x=2 to x=6, the average rate of change
The average rate of change is 11
The solution is at what point the two lines intersect.
Plug y into the other equation to get: 5x-4(5-3x)=-3
Multiply it out: 5x+12x-20=-3
Combine like terms and add 20 to both sides: 17x=17
Divide both sides by 17: x=1
Now plug the x value back into any equation to get the y value.
So you get y=5-3(1) --> y=2
The solution is (1, 2)
Answer: x midpoint 6.5 y midpoint -2.5
