The main idea here is to "translate" the words into maths.
First we need to identify the unknowns and label these.
We need to know the number if dimes and the number of quarters. So lets say
x: number of dimes
y: number of quarters
Now lets write equations from the written problem.
We know that there are 36 coind total, thus:
x + y = 36
We also know that the coins total 5.85 dollars, but it is better to count in cents, that is 585 cents.
x are the number of dimes, their value is x*10
y are quarters with value of y*25
thus:
10x+25y=585
We have two equations and two unknowns now, that needs to be solved to get the answer.
x + y = 36
10x+25y=585
Answer:
She should have used One-half (9.4) (11.9) to represent the area of a single triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
The pyramid is composed by 4 triangles and 1 square
area of the square: base² = 9.4²
area of each triangle = 1/2*base*height = 1/2*9.4*11.9
surface area of the pyramid = 4*area of each triangle + area of the square = 4*(1/2*9.4*11.9) + 9.4²
thats cool did you want to ask a question though?
Answer:
y = 2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that this line passes thru (-4, -6) and (2, 6). As we move from (-4, -6) and (2, 6), x increases by 6 and y increases by 12. Thus, the slope is
m = rise / run = 12/6 = 2.
From the graph we can see that the y-intercept is (0,2). Thus, the slope-intercept equation of this line is:
y = 2x + 2
