Answer:

  • 18 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of dimes be d and quarters be q

<u>The value is $8.80 = 880¢, so:</u>

  • 10d + 25q = 880 ⇒ 2d + 5q = 176

<u>If the dimes were quarters and the quarters were dimes, the coins' total value would be $7.30 or 730¢</u>

  • 25d + 10q = 730 ⇒ 5d + 2q = 146

<u>Now we have 2 equations. Solving the system by elimination, subtract 5 times the second equation from twice the first equation:</u>

  • 2(2d + 5q) - 5(5d + 2q) = 2(176) - 5(146)
  • 4d - 25d = -378
  • -21d = -378
  • d = -378/-21
  • d = 18

taurus [48]

Answer:

7x = 35cm ; 2x = 10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

7x and 2x are the lengths

7x+2x=45

Then you take 7 + 2 = 9

so is gonna be 9x = 45

then you divide both side with 9

so is gonna be x = 5

Then you take 5 multiply 7 : 2

so 7 x 5 = 35cm

2 x 5 = 10cm

horrorfan [7]

Question:

Below are 36 sorted ages of an acting award winner. find the percentile corresponding to age 38 using the method presented in the textbook. 18 19 20 20 21 23 25 31 33 34 35 37 38 47 50 51 55 55 58 59 62 62 64 66 69 70 70 70 71 71 72 74 74 75 77 80 percentile of value 38 = ______ ​(round to the nearest integer as​ needed.)

Answer:

33 percentile

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ages:

18, 19, 20, 20, 21, 23, 25, 31, 33, 34, 35, 37, 38, 47, 50, 51, 55, 55, 58, 59, 62, 62, 64, 66, 69, 70, 70, 70, 71, 71, 72, 74, 74, 75, 77, 80.

We are told to find the percentile corresponding to age 38.

To find the percentile corresponding to age 38 simply means to find the percentage of ages that are less than 38.

From the given values, the number of ages less than 38 are 12. Therefore, the percentile corresponding to age 38 would be:

(Ages less than 38/ total number of ages) * 100

= \frac{12}{36} * 100 = 33.333

33.333 ≈ 33

The percentile corresponding to age 38 = 33 percentile
