Jorge has some dimes and quarters. He has 10 more dimes than quarters and the collection of coins is worth $2.40. How many dimes

and quarters does Jorge have?

5 0

Answer:

14 dimes and 4 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

x= number of dimes

y=number of quarters

x-10=y

0.10x+0.25y=2.40

substitute for y

0.10x+0.25(x-10)=2.40

0.35x-2.50=2.40

0.35x=4.90

x=14

y=4

Find the area of a circle with radius, r = 17cm.

Dimas [21]

Answer:

0.0908 $m^{2}$ (to 3 S.F.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = π $r^{2}$

π * $17^{2}$ = 907.92

= 908 $cm^{2}$

=0.0908 $m^{2}$

Negative one over two equals negative five over eighteen h

love history [14]

Answer:

the answer is h = 5 / 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is "negative one over two equals negative five over eighteen h"

It means -1 / 2 = -5 / 18h

Using cross multiplication method,

-1 * 18h = -5 * 2

-18h = -10

Cancelling negative signs from both sides,

18h = 10

Dividing both sides by 18,

h = 10 / 18

h = 5/ 9

Hence, the answer is h = 5 / 9.

The article "Influence of Penetration Rate on Penetrometer Resistance" (see textbook for reference) presents measures of penetra

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The 95% of confidence interval for the mean penetration resistance for this soil is (2.0823, 3.1977).

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size is 15.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom there are, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

$df = 15-1 = 14$

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level $\alpha$ and divide by 2. So:

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 14 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 2.145$ .

Now, we need to find the standard deviation of the sample. That is:

$s = \frac{1.02}{\sqrt{15}} = 0.26$

Now, we multiply T and s

$M = T*s = 2.145*0.26 = 0.5577$

For the lower end of the interval, we subtract the mean by M. So 2.64 - 0.5577 = 2.0823

For the upper end of the interval, we add the mean to M. So 2.64 + 0.5577 = 3.1977

The 95% of confidence interval for the mean penetration resistance for this soil is (2.0823, 3.1977).
