chris has a collection of dimes and quarters worth $4.25. if she has 23 coins total, how many quarters does she have.

Kipish [7]

Answer:

the third one

Step-by-step explanation:

bc like there are 2 boxes of 1 and 5 boxes of 1/6 so thats already 2 and 5/6 which applies to all of them. then there is 1 box of 1 and 2 boxes of 1/3 so thats 1 and 1/3 which applies to all of them also but when you make them have the same denominator you get 2 and 5/6 + 1 and 4/6 which deletes the second one. When you add you should get the same denominator so that deletes the first one so then you simplify that and the fraction should still be equal to the unsimplified fraction so you should get 4 and 1/2 if that makes sense

Mckinney donated 9 soda bottles to the after

Papessa [141]

Answer:

33%

Step-by-step explanation:

9 - 6 = 3

3 / 9 = 0.33

0.33 x 100 = 33%

Amount of what you have divided by the total amount of something, times by 100 gives you the percentage

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

in y=mx+b, m= the slope

and if you were graphing, you would put 2 on the y axis and use the rise over run strategy for the slope

Determine formula of the nth term 2, 6, 12 20 30,42

nalin [4]

Check the forward differences of the sequence.

If $\{a_n\} = \{2,6,12,20,30,42,\ldots\}$ , then let $\{b_n\}$ be the sequence of first-order differences of $\{a_n\}$ . That is, for n ≥ 1,

$b_n = a_{n+1} - a_n$

so that $\{b_n\} = \{4, 6, 8, 10, 12, \ldots\}$ .

Let $\{c_n\}$ be the sequence of differences of $\{b_n\}$ ,

$c_n = b_{n+1} - b_n$

and we see that this is a constant sequence, $\{c_n\} = \{2, 2, 2, 2, \ldots\}$ . In other words, $\{b_n\}$ is an arithmetic sequence with common difference between terms of 2. That is,

$2 = b_{n+1} - b_n \implies b_{n+1} = b_n + 2$

and we can solve for $b_n$ in terms of $b_1=4$ :

$b_{n+1} = b_n + 2$

$b_{n+1} = (b_{n-1}+2) + 2 = b_{n-1} + 2\times2$

$b_{n+1} = (b_{n-2}+2) + 2\times2 = b_{n-2} + 3\times2$

and so on down to

$b_{n+1} = b_1 + 2n \implies b_{n+1} = 2n + 4 \implies b_n = 2(n-1)+4 = 2(n + 1)$

We solve for $a_n$ in the same way.

$2(n+1) = a_{n+1} - a_n \implies a_{n+1} = a_n + 2(n + 1)$

Then

$a_{n+1} = (a_{n-1} + 2n) + 2(n+1) \\ ~~~~~~~= a_{n-1} + 2 ((n+1) + n)$

$a_{n+1} = (a_{n-2} + 2(n-1)) + 2((n+1)+n) \\ ~~~~~~~ = a_{n-2} + 2 ((n+1) + n + (n-1))$

$a_{n+1} = (a_{n-3} + 2(n-2)) + 2((n+1)+n+(n-1)) \\ ~~~~~~~= a_{n-3} + 2 ((n+1) + n + (n-1) + (n-2))$

and so on down to

$a_{n+1} = a_1 + 2 \displaystyle \sum_{k=2}^{n+1} k = 2 + 2 \times \frac{n(n+3)}2$

$\implies a_{n+1} = n^2 + 3n + 2 \implies \boxed{a_n = n^2 + n}$

For 3/4 (three fourths) of a pound of peanuts, Jimmy paid $2.25. What is

Lera25 [3.4K]

3 dollars pound because since it is 3/4 you can do: 2.25/3 and get 0.75. Thus means 0.75 is 1/4 a pound. 0.75 x 4 will get you dollars for pound. So 3
