Answer:
17 nickles !
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify the variables:
n = amount of nickels
d = amount of dimes
Next, setup the equations based on what you know. The first equation is:
n + d = 28
For the second equation, we know that a dime is worth 10¢ and a nickel is 5¢, so it should be:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
This a three-step answer:
In one formula (you can use any of them; most people use the simplest one), single out the variable on one side
Apply the first formula into the second formula, and solve it to get the value of one variable
Apply the answer from the second formula into the first formula, and solve it to get the value of the other variable
======
Step One:
n + d = 28
n + d - d = 28 - d
n = 28 - d
Step Two:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * (28 - d)) + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95
1.40 - 1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95 - 1.40
0.05d = 0.55
d = 11
Step Three:
n = 28 - d
n = 28 - 11
n = 17
======
Your answer should be 17 nickels and 11 dimes.
You can double check by applying the variables into both formulas.
n + d = 28
17 + 11 = 28
28 = 28
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * 17) + (0.10 * 11) = 1.95
0.85 + 1.10 = 1.95
1.95 = 1.95
I hope this helped.
Answer:
B: (x, y) --> (x + 4, y - 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
the shape DEF went to the right along the x axis wich <em>increased</em> x and then went down the y axis or <em>decreased </em>y to make D'E'F'
some good way to remember these translations and orders are...
- x is first when plotting points, then y (x, y)
- x increases going right, and decreases going left, as well as y increasing going up, then decreasing going down
BONUS FACT:
the symbol ( ' ) is called a prime when refering to transformations and geometry ((as in D' is pronounced D prime))
Answer:
sharon
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Carla lives 16 miles from the Library.
The mistake is drawng the diagram incorrectly and using the miles given in the wrong places. The <u>student's</u> diagram has Yuri in a place that's Southwest of the Library in the diagram given
Step-by-step explanation:
If Yuri lives 24 miles SOUTH of the library, the "b" side of the triangle should be 24, with the Library at the top and Yuri at the bottom left, which is the west end of the base. The base "a" of the triangle should extend 10 to the right (East in compas directions) forming the right angle. Carla lives at the sharp southeast corner of the triangle, and the Hypotenuse "c" from her house to the Library is the distance we have to figure.
c² =a² + b²
c² = 10² + 24²
c² = 100 + 576
c² = 676
√c² = √676
c = 26 Carla lives 26 miles from the Library.
