The main idea here is to "translate" the words into maths.
First we need to identify the unknowns and label these.
We need to know the number if dimes and the number of quarters. So lets say
x: number of dimes
y: number of quarters
Now lets write equations from the written problem.
We know that there are 36 coind total, thus:
x + y = 36
We also know that the coins total 5.85 dollars, but it is better to count in cents, that is 585 cents.
x are the number of dimes, their value is x*10
y are quarters with value of y*25
thus:
10x+25y=585
We have two equations and two unknowns now, that needs to be solved to get the answer.
x + y = 36
10x+25y=585
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
The two triangles are <u>similar</u> and x is <u>positive</u>, <u>different from 0</u>, so we can write.

Thanks
The answer is d because i just took a test and that was the answer
6y + 12 = 3y - 3
Subtract 3y on both sides
3y + 12 = -3
Subtract 12 on both sides
3y = -15
Divide by 3 on both sides
y = -5
Non-linear graph best describes this function.

Why nonlinear?</h3>
As described in the question, Pauley graphs the change in temperature of a glass of hot tea over time. He sees that the function appears to decrease quickly at first, then decrease more slowly as time passes. It is linear because the graph decreases over time. It is linear because there is both an independent and a dependent variable but it doesn't satisfies one condition of being linear. Thus, It's Nonlinear because linear functions are increasing functions. It is nonlinear because linear functions increase or decrease at the same rate.
