This is the concept of application of quadratic equations; To get the number of dimes and quarters we proceed as follows;
suppose there are x dimes and y quarters;
x+y=95.......i
but we know;
$0.1=1 dimes
$0.25=1 quarters
thus
0.1x+0.25y=23.45.....ii
solving equation i and ii by substitution we shall have:
from i;
x=95-y
thus substituting the value of x in equation ii we get
0.1(95-y)+0.25y=23.45
9.5-0.1y+0.25y=23.45
collecting like terms we get:
0.15y=13.95
dividing both sides by 0.15 we get;
y=13.95/0.15=93
x=95-93=2
therefore we conclude that there were 2 dimes and 93 quarters
Answer:
2/8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an equivalent of a fraction, multiply numerator and denominator by the same value:
1/4 = (1/4)(2/2) = (1·2)/(4·2) = 2/8
Answer:
p = 10.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that p is directly proportional to (p-1)² and p is always positive, then;
q = k (p-1)²
If q = 30 and p = 7
30 = k(7-1)²
30 = 6²k
30 = 36k
5 = 6k
k = 5/6
To get p when q = 80
q =k (p-1)²
80 = 5/6((p-1)²
480 = 5(p-1)²
480/5 = (p-1)²
(p-1)² = 96
p-1 = √96
p-1 = 9.8
p = 9.8 + 1
p = 10.8
B) 6
Ch 10.82
Answer:
35 is its width and 63 is its length.
Step-by-step explanation:
7 x 5 = 35 and 98 - 35 equals 63 which is the length.
