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

Determine the required value of the missing probability to make the distribution a discrete probability distribution. x ​p(x) 3
Alisiya [41]

To get the required value of the missing probability to make the series complete is to deduct all the probability given to 1 because we know that the discrete probability distribution must be equal to 1. So doing what I have said, this will be:

P(4) = 1 - P(3) - P(5) - P(6)

= 1 – 0.3 – 0.18 – 0.21

<span>= 0.31 is the answer.</span>

14. Boyle’s Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P of the gas is inversely
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

dV/dt = 100 cm³/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = 728 cm³

P = 182 kPa

dP/dt = - 25 kPa/min

dV/dt = ?

If we apply the ideal gas equation

P*V = n*R*T

where n*R*T is constant

we have

d(P*V)/dt = d(n*R*T)/dt

⇒ d(P*V)/dt = 0

⇒ V*(dP/dt) + P*(dV/dt) = 0

⇒ dV/dt = - (V/P)*(dP/dt)

Plugging the known values we obtain

⇒ dV/dt = - (728 cm³/182 kPa)*(- 25 kPa/min)

⇒ dV/dt = 100 cm³/min
