Answer:

There are 9 dimes and 18 nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = be the number of dimes

 

     n = be the number of nickels

 

 

    d + n = 27...eq.1

 

   0.10d + 0.05n = 1.80...eq.2

 

Solve the system of equations

 

   d + n = 27

 

10d + 5n = 180  ( multiply eq.2 by 100 )

 

 -5d - 5n = -135

 

      5d = 45

 

       

        d = 9 , there are 9 dimes so,0.90

 

        n = 27 - 9 = 18,   there are 18 nickels so, 0.90

 

To check:   9 dimes + 18 nickels = 27 coins

 

                0.90 + 0.90 = $ 1.80 total value of the coins

Which of the following is an example of a function?
Leokris [45]
A. Not a function since we have the points (-1,0) and (-1,3). The x value repeats while the y values are different. Plugging in x = -1 leads to multiple outputs, which shows we don't have a function. To get a better visual, you can plot the points. You'll see that the points form a vertical line. Therefore, this graph fails the vertical line test. 

B. This is a function. All of the x values are different. The points, when graphed, pass the vertical line test. In other words, its impossible to draw a vertical line through any two points on the graph. Any x input here leads to exactly one y output.

C. This is not a function. Like choice A, we have repeated x values. In this case we have (4,6) and (4,7). The x value x = 4 repeats itself leading to multiple outputs y = 6 and y = 7

D. This is also not a function. The x value x = 0 repeats itself. The graph fails the vertical line test.

Answer: Choice B

Find the exact length of the third side
devlian [24]
You can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2, to solve this.

b= square-root of (c^2)-(a^2)

b= square-root of (9^2)-(2^2)

b= 8.77.... which in the exact form is square root of 77.

Could someone help here, thankyou!
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

x = 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of sides of similar figures = a : b , then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of areas = 5 : 45 = 1 : 9 , so

ratio of sides = \sqrt{1} : \sqrt{9} = 1 : 3

Thus side of B is 3 times side of A

x = 3 × 2 = 6 cm
