Answer:

Number of nickels = 17

Number of dimes = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of nickels

y = number of dimes

x + y = 40 (1)

0.05x + 0.10y = 3.15 (2)

From (1)

x = 40 - y

Substitute x = 40 - y into (2)

0.05x + 0.10y = 3.15 (2)

0.05(40 - y) + 0.10y = 3.15

2 - 0.05y + 0.10y = 3.15

- 0.05y + 0.10y = 3.15 - 2

0.05y = 1.15

y = 1.15/0.05

y = 23

Substitute y = 23 into (1)

x + y = 40 (1)

x + 23 = 40

x = 40 - 23

x = 17

Number of nickels = 17

Number of dimes = 23

Which of the following is the number of sides for a regular polygon that will not form a regular tessellation?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer with explanation:

A regular polygon is simple closed geometrical shape, only made up of line segments.

And Regular Tessellation, is geometrical shape, made up of regular polygons having, 3 ,or 4 or 6 sides.

It is combination of, only single kind of polygon,either, polygon having 3 sides, or ,4 sides or 6 sides.

→Regular polygon having 3 sides is Called Equilateral Triangle.

→Regular polygon having 4 sides is Called Square.

→Regular polygon having 6 sides is Called Regular Hexagon.

⇒Regular polygon having , 8 sides will not form a regular tessellation.

Write the equation of the circle graphed below
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The equation of the circle is

(x + 2)² + (y + 2)² = 9

Centered at (-2, -2), with radius of 3 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a circle is given as

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where (h, k) is the center of the circle, and r is the radius.

Looking at the graph, the center is the red dot. It corresponds to -2 on the y-axis, and -2 on the x-axis. So, the center (h, k) is (-2, -2).

The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the edge of the circle. The red dot is the edge of the circle, there are 3 lines that represent 3 units, so we have a radius of 3 units.

Using these in the general equation, we have

[x - (-2)]² + [y - (-2)]² = 3²

(x + 2)² + (y + 2)² = 9

And this is the equation.

One number is 6 more than twice the other number. If the sum of the two numbers is ​21, find the two numbers
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

One number, let's call it x, is 6 more than twice the other number, let's say this number is y.

x= 2y+6

x+y=21

We're left with a system of equations.

If we substitute the first equation in the second we find the value of y.

(2y+6)+y=21

3y+6=21

3y=15

<u><em>y=5</em></u>

Now that we have found the value of y, we can take that value and substitute it in the second equation (since it's easier) to find the value of x.

x+ (5)=21

<u><em>x=16</em></u>

<u><em>Now to check if our answers are correct, we plug in both values into any equation and see if they equate.</em></u>

x+y=21

(16)+(5)=21

21=21

Our solution is correct!
