Answer: 5 nickels and 19 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let represent the number of nickels and let represent the number of quarters.

From the problem we can write these two equations:

+ = 24; (0.05) + (0.25) = 5.00

Isolate in the first equation: = 24 − .

Substitute 24 − for and solve for :

(24 − )(0.05) + (0.25) = 5.00

24(0.05) − (0.05) + (0.25) = 5.00

1.20 − 0.05 + 0.25 = 5.00

1.20 + 0.20 = 5.00

0.20 = 3.80

= 19

Use = 19 to find :

+ = 24; + 19 = 24; = 5

Answer: 5 nickels, 19 quarters

Hope this helps!

The equation to model Exponential Growth is:
abruzzese [7]

Your salary in x years is modeled an the exponential growth

The equation that determines your salary in x years is y = 45000(1.05)^x

<h3>How to model the salary growth?</h3>

The model of the exponential growth is given as:

y = a(1 + r)^x

From the question, we have:

Initial salary, a = 45000

Raise, r = 5%

So, the equation becomes

y = 45000(1 + 5%)^x

Evaluate the sum

y = 45000(1.05)^x

Hence, the equation that determines your salary in x years is y = 45000(1.05)^x

Mr. Vectadore Is buying two new cowboy hat altogether the hats cost $75.12 the second half cost twice as much as what is the pri
andre [41]

Answer:

$50.08 

Step-by-step explanation:

We use x to represent the price of the cheapest hat. Since the more expensive hat is twice the price of the cheaper one, we use 2x to represent it. Therefore x + 2x, or 3x, equals $75.12. Divide 75.12 by 3 to find x, which is 25.04. The more expensive hat is 2x, so we must multiply 25.04 by 2 to find the price of the more expensive hat.
