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

Jerry indicated that after tossing a penny 30 times, the relative frequency of heads was 0.47 (to the nearest hundredth). He ind
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 toss could not change the frequency by such a large margin 0.47 ---> 0.55.

The number of heads obtained in 30 tosses = 30 * 0.47 =  14.

So if the next toss came up heads the relative frequency of heads would be

15/31 = 0.48.

The parabolic arch of a bridge over a one-way road can be described by the equation y = -x^2 + 6, where x and y ar emeasured in
Vladimir [108]
So check the picture below

if we check the solutions or zeros for the equation, we get \bf y=-x^2+6\implies 0=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{6}

and as you can see in the picture, the value of "x" when y = 3.5, or the height of the truck is  \bf y=-x^2+6\implies 3.5=-x^2+6\implies x=\pm \sqrt{2.5}

the truck, ends up with a clearance of \bf \sqrt{2.5}-1.5 on either side, so, the maximum clearance, the truck can have, those two clearances added together, \bf 2(\sqrt{2.5}-1.5)
