Answer:

20 nickels and 26 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

  • She has $3.60 in nickels and dimes
  • a nickel is $0.05 and a dime is $0.10
  • let n be the number of nickels and d be the number of dimes
  • thus the first equation is 3.6 = 0.05n +0.1d
  • If she has 46 coins then n + d = 46
  • then n = 46 - d
  • sub n = 46 - d into 3.6 = 0.05n +0.1d
  • 3.6 = 0.05(46 - d) + 0.1d
  • 3.6 = 2.3 -0.05d+0.1d
  • 1.3 = 0.05d
  • 26 = d
  • sub d = 26 into n+d=46
  • n+26=46
  • n=20
  • Check by subbing n=20 and d=26 into 0.05n +0.1d
  • 0.05(20) +0.1(26)
  • 1+2.6 = 3.6

What is the relationship between gross pay and net pay?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Net means something has been subtracted. Your gross pay is to total amount you've earned before deductions like taxes or other pre-tax deductions like health care or flexible spending account monies or 401k pre-tax savings accounts.

For this reason, Gross will always be more than net when it comes to pay unless there are NO DEDUCTIONS.

That means that B is the correct answer here - Net is less than gross.

A good way to think about this is a net catches some fish but lets others go. if you run a net through the ocean, you wont take everything in the water home, only a part of what's actually there.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross Pay = $100

Taxes =$20

Gross Pay ($100) - Taxes ($20) = Net Pay

100-20=80

Net Pay = $80

80 is less than 100

State whether the slope of the line is positive, negative, zero, or undefined.
Rudiy27

The slope of the line is equal to \tan \alpha, where angle \alpha is angle of line incline to the positive x-direction.

  • When \alpha is acute, then slope is positive;
  • When \alpha is obtuse, then slope is negative;
  • When \alpha is right, then slope is undefined;
  • When \alpha is zero, then slope is equal to 0.

In your case angle of inclination is obtuse and slope is negative.

Answer: correct choice is B
