Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of the floor of the rectangular room that is 12 feet by 15 feet. The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as
Area = length × width
Area of the rectangular room would be
12 × 15 = 180 feet²
The tiles are square with side lengths 1 1/3 feet. Converting 1 1/3 feet to improper fraction, it becomes 4/3 feet
Area if each tile is
4/3 × 4/3 = 16/9 ft²
The number of tiles needed to cover the entire floor is
180/(16/9) = 180 × 9/16
= 101.25
102 tiles would be needed because the tiles must be whole numbers.
Answer: it will take 14 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A savings account is started with an initial deposit of $600. This means that the principal P is
P = 600
It was compounded annually. This means that it was compounded once in a year. Therefore,
n = 1
The rate at which the principal was compounded is 2.1%. So
r = 2.1/100 = 0.021
The duration of time that for which the money stayed in the account is t years. So
Time = t
The formula for compound interest is expressed as
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
Where
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years. Therefore,
a) the equation to represent the amount of money in the account as a function of time in years would be
A = 600 (1+0.021/1)^1×t
A = 600 (1.021)^t
b) the amount of time it takes for the account balance to reach $800 would be
800 = 600 (1.021)^t
Dividing both sides of the equation by 600, it becomes
1.33 = (1.021)^t
t = 14
