Peggy had three times as many quarters as nickels. She had $1.60 in all. How many nickels and how many quarters did she have?. .

Andru [333]

Let

n-------> the number of nickels

q------> the number of quarters

we know that

$1\ quarter=\$0.25\\1\ nickel=\$0.05$

so

$0.05n+0.25q=1.60$ ----> equation A

$q=3n$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$0.05n+0.25[3n]=1.60$

$0.05n+0.75n=1.60$

$0.80n=1.60$

$n=2$

Find the value of q

$q=3*2=6$

therefore

<u>The answer part a) is</u>

the number of nickels are $2$ and the number of quarters are $6$

<u>the answer Part b) is</u>

The expressions that represents the number of quarters is

$q=3n$

The line $y = 3$ intersects the graph of $y = 4x^2 + x - 1$ at the points $A$ and $B$. The distance between $A$ and $B$ can be w

raketka [301]

Answer:

61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the points $A$ and $B$ .

We know that the $y$ -coordinates of both are $3$ .

So let's first solve:

$3=4x^2+x-1$

Subtract 3 on both sides:

$0=4x^2+x-1-3$

Simplify:

$0=4x^2+x-4$

I'm going to use the quadratic formula, $x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ , to solve.

We must first compare to the quadratic equation, $ax^2+bx+c=0$ .

$a=4$

$b=1$

$c=-4$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1^2-4(4)(-4)}}{2(4)}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1+64}}{8}$

$\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{65}}{8}$

Since the distance between the points $A$ and $B$ is horizontal. We know this because they share the same $y-coordinate$ .This means we just need to find the positive difference between the $x$ -values we found for the points of $A$ and $B$ .

So that is, the distance between $A$ and $B$ is:

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{65}}{8}-\frac{-1-\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{-1+\sqrt{65}+1+\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{2\sqrt{65}}{8}$

$\frac{\sqrt{65}}{4}$

If we compare this to $\frac{\sqrt{m}}{n}$ , we should see that:

$m=65 \text{ and } n=4$ .

So $m-n=65-4=61$ .

A(R+T)=W solve for T

Leni [432]

A(R+T)=W
(A×R)+(A×T)=W
AR+AT=W
-AR from both sides
AT=W-AR
divide both sides by A
T=(W-AR)/A
