Sasha has 3.20 in U.S. coins. She has the same number of quarters and nickels. What is the greatest number of quarters she could
RSB [31]

Answer:

10 quarters = $2.50

10 nickels = $0.50

that leaves $0.20 for other coins (dimes / pennies)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, suppose she has only quarters and nickels and no other coins.  Then if C is the identical number of coins of each type, then 5C + 25C = 320, so 30C = 320 and 3C = 32, but there is no integer solution to this.  So she must have at least one other type of coin.

Assume she has only quarters, nickels, and dimes.  Then if D is the number of dimes, 5C +  25C + 10D = 320, which means 30C + 10D = 320, or 3C + D = 32.  The smallest D can be is 2, leaving 3C = 30 and thus C = 10.  So in this scenario she would have 10 quarters, 10 nickels, and two dimes to make $2.50 + $0.50 + $0.20 = $3.20.

This has to be the highest number, because if she had 11 quarters and 11 nickels, that alone would add up to 11(0.25) + 11(0.05) = $3.30, which would already be too much.

How to solve this pythagoras theorem
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is the longest side thus is (4x + 1)

The legs are 2x and (4x - 1)

Using Pythagoras' theorem, then

(4x + 1)² = (2x)² + (4x - 1)² ← expanding factors

16x² + 8x + 1 = 4x²  + 16x² - 8x + 1 , that is

16x² + 8x + 1 = 20x² - 8x + 1 ( subtract 20x² - 8x + 1 from both sides )

- 4x² + 16x = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 )

4x² - 16x = 0 ← factor out 4x from each term

4x(x - 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

4x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

Now x > 0, thus x = 4

2x = 2(4) = 8

4x - 1 = 4(4) - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

4x + 1 = 4(4) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17

Thus

perimeter = 8 + 15 + 17 = 40 cm
