Answer: 0.058

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of quarters = 15

Number of dimes = 9

Number of nickels = 10

Number of pennies = 6

Total number of coins = 40

The probability of selecting a quarter first will be 15/40 = 3/8

Since it's not replaced, there'll be 39 coins left and the probability of choosing a penny is 6/39 = 2/13

Therefore, P(quarter, then penny) will be:

= 3/8 × 2/13

= 6/104

= 0.058

8x + 4y = 2 solve for y
Ivanshal [37]
The quickest way to solve this is 

8(0)+4y=2 (since we are looking for y we are going to put 0 in the x intercept) with that all we have left is this

4y=2 next we divide 4 on both sides in order to get y by itself. 
2/4=0.5
y=0.5 or 1/2.

Solve the equation for all real solutions in simplest form.<br> z^2 - 12z +9= -3
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Solving the equation for all real solutions in simplest form.

z^2 - 12z +9= -3 we get \mathbf{z=10.9\: or\: z=1.1}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation for all real solutions in simplest form.

z^2 - 12z +9= -3

First simplifying the equation:

z^2 - 12z +9+3= -3+3\\z^2 - 12z +12= 0

Now, we can solve the equation using quadratic formula:

z=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

we have a = 1, b=-12 and c=12

Putting values in formula and finding values of x

z=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\z=\frac{-(-12)\pm\sqrt{(-12)^2-4(1)(12)}}{2(1)}\\z=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{144-48}}{2}\\z=\frac{12\pm\sqrt{96}}{2}\\z=\frac{12\pm9.8}{2}\\z=\frac{12+9.8}{2}\:or\:z=\frac{12-9.8}{2}\\z=10.9\:or\:z=1.1

So, we get value of z: z=10.9 or z=1.1

Solving the equation for all real solutions in simplest form.

z^2 - 12z +9= -3 we get \mathbf{z=10.9\: or\: z=1.1}

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION ASAP
Sever21 [200]

Answer: $801

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope, you can divide <u>445÷5=89</u>. (now we know that the rate is <u>$89/1 month</u>)

to find the cost of 9 months, multiply <u>89•9=801</u>

so since it's asking the cost after 9 months, i think the answer should be $801.
