Anyone know this question?<br><br>Just B please
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

52% and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 25 squares of which 13 are shaded , then

\frac{13}{25} × 100% = 13 × 4% = 52°

(b)

1 square represents \frac{1}{25} × 100% = 1 × 4% = 4%

Then 80% = 80% ÷ 4% = 20

That is for 80% , 20 squares require to be shaded

That is 7 more than the 13 already shaded

A woman has twice as many dimes as quarters in her purse. If the dimes were quarters and the quarters were dimes, she would have
Digiron [165]
If x = # of quarters, then, the # of dimes will be equal to 2x. The total value (z) would be equal to:

z = 0.25x + 0.10(2x)

Then, since you switch the quarters and the dimes, and you have a new total, the resulting equation will be:

1.2 + z  = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)

Plug in the values you know:

1.2 + (0.25x + 0.10(2x)) = 0.25(2x) + 0.10(x)

Solve for x:

1.2 + (0.25x + 0.20x) = 0.50x + 0.10x
1.2 + 0.45x = 0.60x
1.2 = 0.15x
x = 1.2/0.15 = 8

This means that there are 8 Quarters in her bag right now. So, the amount of dimes is just 2x which is 16. So your answer will be:

She has 8 Quarters and 16 Dimes in her bag right now. Or, $3.60.

If this doesn't make sense, then tell me. I have some resources where I got the answer from to put it into simplest terms. I have the website if you want.
