Let x be number of $10 dollar bills

Let y be number of $5 dollar bills

Let z be number of $1 dollar bills

From the question, we can come up with three equations (so we can find the values of x, y & z) :

  • 10x + 5y + z = 101
  • y - x = 5
  • z = 4x

The first equation comes from finding the total money Elizabeth has, which is $101.

The second equation comes from value of y (number of $5 bills) is more than value of x (number of $10 bills) by 5 dollars.

The third equation comes from the value of z (number of $1 bills) being 4 times more than the value of x (number of $10 bills).

Now, we will begin to find the value of x, y & z.

From the first equation,

10x + 5y + z = 101

Substitute the third equation (z = 4x) into z:

10x + 5y + 4x = 101

Simplify this and you get,

14x + 5y = 101

Now, we use the second equation. The second equation is y - x = 5. If we try to make y as the subject, it becomes y = 5 + x.

Now, substitute this into the value of y of the last working we did:

14x + 5(5+x) = 101

Simplify that and it becomes:

x = 4

Then, substitute this value of x into the second and third equations to find y and z.

y - x = 5

y - 4 = 5

y = 9

z = 4x

z = 4(4)

z = 16

Finally, let's check these answers by substituting them into the first equation to try and see if the total value is <em>really</em> $101.

10x + 5y + z = 10(4) + 5(9) + 16

10x + 5y + z = 40 + 45 + 16

10x + 5y + z = 101

Thus, our answers are correct. Elizabeth has FOUR $10 bills, NINE $5 bills and SIXTEEN $1 bills.

Write an equation for the line parallel to y= -2x+1 that contains (-2,5)
grin007 [14]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallels line have the same slope, when an equation is in the form y= mx + b, m is the slope. In this problem slope = - 2

Now with the slope what is missing is the y-intercept, the problem says that the line contains the point (-2, 5), replacing that point in the equation you can solve it to find the y-intercept

y = mx + b

5 = (-2)(-2) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 + b

y = - 2x +1

The volume of a pyramid varies jointly as the height and the area of the base. If a pyramid has the measurements V=1144
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

  • 11040 m³
  • k ≈ 0.33
  • V = (1/3)Bh

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation is ...

  V = kBh . . . . . for some base area B, height h, and constant of variation k

We are given length and width of the base so we presume it is a rectangle.

  B = l·w = 8·11 = 88 . . . . square meters

The given volume tells us the value of k:

  1144 = k(88)(39) . . . . . . cubic meters

  1144/3432 = k = 1/3 ≈ 0.33

The value of k is about 0.33.

__

Then the volume of the larger pyramid is ...

  V = (1/3)(15 m)(46 m)(48 m) = 11,040 m³

The general relationship is ...

  V = 1/3Bh
