Answer: 63 total gummy bears

Step-by-step explanation: 37 - 16= 21. 21 is the one third she ate. So 21 x 3 give you the original amount of gummy bears which is 63

Equation= 37 - 16 x 3= 63

You have 64 coins, consisting of pennies, nickels, and quarters. The value of
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

There are 20 pennies, 33 nickels and 11 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

- You have 64 coins, consisting of pennies, nickels, and quarters

- The value of  the coins is $4.60

- Assume that there are p pennies, n nickles, and q quarters

∴ p + n + q = 64 ⇒ (1)

- Lets find the value of each types of coins

∵ 1 penny = 1 cent ⇒ p = p cents

∵ 1 nickel = 5 cents ⇒ n = 5n cents

∵ 1 quarter = 25 cents ⇒ q = 25q cents

∵ 1 dollar = 100 cents ⇒ $4.60 = 4.60 × 100 = 460 cents

∴ p + 5n + 25q = 460 ⇒ (2)

- You also know that you have three times as many nickels as  quarters

∴ n = 3q ⇒ (3) ⇒ the number of nickles by quarters

∵ 5n = 5(3q)

∴ 5n = 15q ⇒ (4) ⇒ the values of nickles by quarters

- Substitute (3) in equation (1) and (4) in equation (2)

∴ p + 3q + q = 64

∴ p + 4q = 64 ⇒ (5)

∴ p + 15q + 25q = 460

∴ p + 40q = 460 ⇒ (6)

- Subtract equation (5) from equation(6) to eliminate p

∴ 36q = 396

- Divide both sides by 36

∴ q = 11

- Substitute the value of q in equation (5)

∴ p + 4(11) = 64

∴ p + 44 = 64

- Subtract 44 from both sides

∴ p = 20

- Substitute the value of q in (3)

∴ n = 3(11) = 33

∴ n = 33

<em>There are 20 pennies, 33 nickels and 11 quarters</em>

Can someone help me with this!
Doss [256]

Answer:

<u>Please read the answers below.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that in a square all its sides are equal length and all the four internal angles measure 90 °

5. If LN = 46, then we have:

OM = <u>46</u> (Same length than LN)

PN = LN/2 = 46/2 = <u>23</u>

ON = √LN²/2 = √ 46²/2 = √ 2,116/2 = √ 1,058 = <u>32.53 (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>

MN = ON = <u>32.53</u>

6. m ∠EFG = <u>90°</u>

m ∠GDH = ∠GDH/2 = 90/2 =<u> 45°</u>

m ∠FEG = ∠DEF/2 = 90/2 =<u> 45°</u>

m ∠DHG = 180 - (∠GDH + ∠DGH) = 180 - (45 + 45)= 180 - 90 = <u>90</u>°

7. Solve for x

6x - 21 = ∠PQR/2

6x - 21 = 90/2

6x - 21 = 45

6x = 45 +21

6x = 66

<u>x = 11</u>

Is -8 rational or irrational
ANEK [815]

Answer:

rational

Step-by-step explanation:

All numbers that are not rational are considered irrational. An irrational number can be written as a decimal, but not as a fraction. An irrational number has endless non-repeating digits to the right of the decimal point. The number 22/7 is a irrational number

The formula of the area of the triangle is A=1/2bh solve for h
inn [45]

Answer:

Answer:

h = \frac{2A}{b}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = \frac{1}{2} bh

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction

2A = bh ( isolate h by dividing both sides by b )

h = \frac{2A}{b}
