Let quarters = q and
Dimes = d

We have 741 coins total so q + d = 741

Since quarters are 25 cents and Dimes are 10 cents then

25q + 10d = 10725 cents

Now we have 2 equations that we can solve using addition or substitution.

Using addition, first multiply the first equation by -10

-10 (q+d) = 741 (-10)
-10q - 10d = -7410

Now add the equations together

(-10q -10d = -7410)
+ (25q + 10d =10725)
________________
15q = 3315
q = 3315 / 15
q = 221
this is the number of quarters

Now plug this back into the original equation

q + d = 741
221 + d = 741
d = 741 - 221
d = 520

There are 520 dimes

Please help Which of the following inequalities is graphed on the coordinate plane?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The inequality which represents the graph is y ≤ -2x + 1 ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question you must know some facts about inequalities

  • If the sign of inequality is ≥ or ≤, then it represents graphically by a solid line
  • If the sign of inequality is > or <, then it represents graphically by a dashed line
  • If the sign of inequality is > or ≥, then the area of the solutions should be over the line
  • If the sign of inequality is < or ≤, then the area of the solutions should be below the line

Let us study the graph and find the correct answer

∵ The line represented the inequality is solid

∴ The sign of inequality is ≥ or ≤

→ That means the answer is A or B

∵ The shaded area is the area of the solutions of the inequality

∵ The shaded area is below the line

∴ The sign of inequality must be ≤

→ That means the correct answer is A

∴ The inequality which represents the graph is y ≤ -2x + 1

BRAINLIESTTT ASAP! PLEASE HELP ME :)
kherson [118]

Answer:

b. \displaystyle 225y^2 + 150xy + 100x^2 = 225y^2 + 150xy + 100x^2

a. \displaystyle [8x + 12y]^2 + [6x + 9y]^2 = [10x + 15y]^2

Step-by-step explanation:

b. \displaystyle 225y^2 + 150xy + 100x^2 = 225y^2 + 150xy + 100x^2

a. \displaystyle [8x + 12y]^2 + [6x + 9y]^2 = [10x + 15y]^2

The two expressions are identical on each side of the equivalence symbol, therefore they are an identity.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

15-29=
Dominik [7]

Answer:

15-29= -14

(I need the explanation most importantly)

14+(-4) - 8 =10-8=2

(Explanation please)

-8.4 - (19.5.) = - 27.9, (just add them to each other and write -, because both have - in front of them)

(Explanation)

-15 + 8 - (-19.7) = - 7+19,7=12,7 (there is + and - so it will became - 7, and at next there is two - which will turn them into +)

(Explanation)

29.45 - 56.009 - 78.2=−104,759 (all you have to is to put them all together, and than make it 29.45 less, writing - in front of them)

(Explanation)

LAST ONE

45.9 - (-9.2) + 5= 45.9+9.2+5=55.1+5=60.1 (because when there is 2 minus next to each other it will became plus)

Eli wants to plant 45 sunflower plants, 81 corn plants and 63 tomato plants in his garden. If he put the same number of plants i
Lynna [10]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you would use the GCF

Find the GCF of 45, 81, 63

GCF(45, 81, 63) = 9

45 = 9 * 5

81 = 9 *9

63= 9 * 7

Since 5, 9, 7 have no common factors, the GCF has to be 9.

This means that the greatest number of plants he can put in each row is 9.

The number of rows he uses for each plant will (obviously) vary.
