8.4.9 On or off the line & Practice Problems
1 answer:
Answer:
Number of quarters → 15
Number of dimes → 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of dimes I have = y
And number of quarters = x
Since, I have amount in my pocket = $2
Therefore, 0.10y + 0.25x = 2
100(0.10y + 0.25x) = 100×2
25x + 10y = 200
5x + 2y = 40
2y = -5x + 40
y = -2.5x + 20 ---------(1)
Total number of coins in my pocket = 17
x + y = 17
y = -x + 17 ---------(2)
By using a graphing calculator we can graph these two lines (As attached)
Solution of the given system of equations will be the point of intersection of these lines.
Solution → (2, 15)
Number of quarters → 15
Number of dimes → 2

Complete question :
Point K on the number line shows Kelvin's score after the first round of a quiz: A number line is shown from negative 10 to 0 to positive 10. There are increments of 1 on either side of the number line. The even numbers are labeled on either side of the number line. Point K is shown on 3. In round 2, he lost 9 points. Which expression shows how many total points he has at the end of round 2? 3 + (−6) = −9, because −9 is 6 units to the left of 3 3 + 6 = −9, because −9 is 6 units to the left of 3 3 + (−9) = −6, because −6 is 9 units to the left of 3 3 + 9 = −6, because −6 is 9 units to the left of 3
Answer: 3 + (−9) = −6, because −6 is 9 units to the left of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Width of number line = - 10 to + 10
Point K on the number line = +3 ( kelvin's score after the first round of quiz).
If Kelvin losses 9 points in round 2 = - 9
Hence at the end of round 2, He'll have a total of :
Point at the end of round 1 + point lost in round 2
3 + (-9) = - 6
