Let our basis be worth 1 dollar. A nickel's worth is $0.05. In order to come up with $1, the number of nickels should be:
Number of nickels = $1 * 1 nickel/$0.05 = 20 nickels
Thickness of 20 nickels = 20 nickels * 1.95 mm = 39 mm
Let's do the same for the quarters. Each quarter is worth $0.25.
Number of quarters = $1 * 1 quarter/$0.25 = 4 quarters
Thickness of 4 quarters = 4 quarters * 1.75 mm = 7 mm
Find the ratio of the two:
39 mm/7 mm = 5.57
Therefore, a stack of nickels is 5.57 times thicker than a stack of quarters worth one dollar.
To find X, we can divide 5 into 40.
40 divided by 5 is 8.
Now we can do 5 x 8. That is 40.
X=40
OR we can do it another way.
40 divided by 5 is 8.
Cross out 5 divided by 5.
Now we have 8. Still.
X is 8
Maybe the one where the are facing eachother?
Answer:
B. 40, 51.5, 88.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x - 4) + (2x + 3) + (3x- 4) = 180
10x - 5 = 180
10x = 185
x= 18.5
Substitute
5(18.5) - 4 = 88.5
2(18.5) + 3 = 40
3(18.5) - 4 = 51.5
We know that
the slope formula is
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x1,y1)=(0,2)
(x2,y2)=(x,0)
m=1-----> equation 1
m=(0-2)/(x-0)------> m=-2/x -----> equation 2
equate equation 1 and equation 2
1=-2/x------> multiply by x both sides------> x=-2
the point (x2,y2) is ----------> (-2,0)
