Answer:

Dimes = x = 52

Nickels = y = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Dimes = x

Nickels = y

x + y = 91 (1)

0.10x + 0.05y = 7.15 (2)

From (1)

x = 91 - y

Substitute x = 91 - y into (2)

0.10x + 0.05y = 7.15

0.10(91 - y) + 0.05y = 7.15

9.10 - 0.10y + 0.05y = 7.15

- 0.10y + 0.05y = 7.15 - 9.10

-0.05y = -1.95

y = -1.95 / 0.05

= 39

Substitute y = 39 into (1)

x + y = 91

x + 39 = 91

x = 91 - 39

x = 52

Dimes = x = 52

Nickels = y = 39

What is the 8th term of this geometric sequence 6,48,384,3072
ELEN [110]
Common ratio can be found by dividing the 2nd term by the first
r = 48/6
r = 8

an = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 8
a1 = first number = 6
r = common ratio = 8
now we sub
a(8) = 6 * 8^(8-1)
a(8) = 6 * 8^7
a(8) = 6 * 2097152
a(8) = 12582912 <==
