Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so, we know they washed 34.

x-5=Trucks washed [19.5-5=(14.5)]

x=cars washed (19.5)

x+x-5=34

2x-5=34

+5   +5

2x=39

divide 2 both sides

x=19.5

To check work: 19.5+14.5=34!

Hope this helps :)

For this case we have the following vector:
 v = (- 8, 2)
 Using product point we have:
 v.v = (-8, 2). (- 8, 2)
 v ^ 2 = (-8) * (- 8) + (2) * (2)
 v ^ 2 = 64 + 4
 v ^ 2 = 68
 v = root (68)
 v = root (4 * 17)
 v = 2 * root (17)
 Answer:
 
v = 2 * root (17)

PLEASE HELPPPP I DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THIS
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

I'm not an expert here, this is a best guess!

But I would say if there is no chance that of him incurring excess costs of less than $500, then he knows without insurance he'll end up paying at least $500, possibly more out of pocket, without the insurance.

so I would say He ends up spending the least amount out if pocket by going with option A. for $75. that's $75 out of pocket with no deductible and it covers his $500+ in excess costs....B and C would also cover the excess, but would each cost $140 or $275 out of pocket at the end of the day....

with that being said, I'd say it's worth it to buy the insurance....even if he doesn't have any excess costs, he's spent $75 dollars for the peace of mind to know he's covered either way, and if he does incur the excess costs he's spent $75 rather that $500+....Even if the excess charges are only $100, which it says there is no chance of happening, but still, then he's still saved $25 altogether. Unless I'm reading it wrong, Option A saves him the most money either way, and is worth it to buy the insurance!

Wilton collected $8.50 in dimes and quarters while cleaning his father's truck. If the number of quarters is 3 times the number
dusya [7]

Answer:

Wilton found 10 dimes while cleaning his father's truck.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total amount collected = $8.50 = 8.50*100 = 850 cents

Let,

x be the number of dimes

y be the number of quarters

According to given statement,

10x+25y=850     Eqn 1

y = 3x     Eqn 2

Putting y=3x in Eqn 1

10x+25(3x)=850\\10x+75x=850\\85x=850

Dividing both sides by 85

\frac{85x}{85}=\frac{850}{85}\\x=10

As x represents dimes, therefore, number of dimes is 10.

Hence,

Wilton found 10 dimes while cleaning his father's truck.
