8$ If the sale is 75% then it would be 8$ because 2x4 is 8 and 3/4 of the is 2.

I have k quarters, five less quarters than nickels and one more than twice as many dimes as quarters. Find the value of the coin

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

(35k + 20) cents

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let us have the value of each unit:

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

Given that number of quarter = k

Quarters are 5 lesser than Nickels, so number of nickels = k+5

One more than twice as many dimes as quarters:

k = 2 $\times$ Number of Dimes + 1

So, number of dimes = $\frac{1}{2}(k-1)$

Value of quarters = $25 \times k$ cents

Value of nickels = $5 \times (k+5) = (5k+25)\ cents$

Value of dimes = $\frac{1}{2}(k-1) \times 10 = (5k-5)\ cents$

So, total value of coins =

$25k + 5k +25 +5k-5\\\Rightarrow (35k+20)\ cents$

Answer:

Given:

I usually walk from home to work. This morning, I walked for 10 minutes until I was halfway to work.

I then realized that I would be late if I kept walking.

I ran the rest of the way. I run twice as fast as I walk.

Find:

The number of minutes in total did it take me to get from home to work

Step-by-step explanation:

Had I kept walking, the second half of my trip would have taken 10 more minutes.

By doubling my speed for the second half of my trip,

I halved the amount of time it took me to finish.

So, the second half of my trip took 5 minutes, for a total trip time of 10+5 = 15 minutes.

The number of minutes in total did it take me to get from home to work is 15 minutes.

Twenty-five randomly selected students were asked the number of movies they watched the previous week. The results are as follow

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

a) x = 1.52

b) s = 1.16

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

5 students watched 0 movies.

9 students watched 1 movie.

5 students watched 2 movies.

5 students watched 3 movies.

1 student watched 4 movies.

(a) Find the sample mean x.

Sum divided by the number of students. So

$x = \frac{5*0 + 9*1 + 5*2 + 5*3 + 1*4}{5 + 9 + 5 + 5 + 1} = \frac{38}{25} = 1.52$

(b) Find the approximate sample standard deviation, s.

Standard deviation of the sample.

Square root of the sum of the squares of the values subtracted from the mean, divided by the sample size subtracted by 1. So

$s = \sqrt{\frac{5*(0-1.52)^2 + 9*(1-1.52)^2 + 5*(2-1.52)^2 + 5*(3-1.52)^2 + 1*(4-1.52)^2}{24}} = \sqrt{\frac{32.24}{24}} = 1.16$
