Answer:

19 quarters and 13 nickles

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 32 coins in your pocket consisting of nickels and quarters with a total value of $5.40

How many nickels and quarters do you have?

Step 1: Setup Coin Value and Coin Total Equation:

Coin Value Equation → 0.05n + 0.25q = $5.40 where n = nickels and q = quarters

Coin Total Equation → n + q = 32

Step 2: Rearrange Coin Total Equation in terms of nickels (n)

n = 32 - q ← Revised Coin Total Equation

Step 3: Plug in our Revised Coin Total Equation for n into our Coin Value Equation:

0.05(32 - q) + 0.25q = $5.40

0.05(32) - 0.05(q) + 0.25q = $5.40

1.6 - 0.05q + 0.25q = $5.40

1.6 + (0.25 - 0.05)q = $5.40

1.6 + 0.2q = $5.40

Step 4: Subtract 1.6 from each side of the equation to isolate q

1.6 - 1.6 + 0.2q = $5.40 - 1.6

0.2q = 3.8

Step 5: Divide each side of the equation by 0.2 to isolate q

0.2q

0.2

=

3.8

0.2

q = 19

Step 6: Using our value for q, Solve for n using our Coin Total Equation:

n + 19 = 32

Subtracting 19 from both sides, we get n + 19 - 19 = 32 - 19

n = 13

Summarizing our word problem, we see that 19 quarters and 13 nickels adds up to $5.40

Find the domain and range of each relation. Then determine if the relation is a function. ​
Vlad [161]

Answer:

There is no fixed domain, meaning it is ongoing

The range is from -1 ≤ x ≤ 3

It is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain refers to the x values. If there was a domain then there would be a dot or a point signalling that there is a fixed domain, however, there are arrows meaning that it will keep going.

The range refers to the y-values. The lowest y-value is -1 and the highest is 3.

It is a function because, when you do the vertical line test, each x-value has its own y-value.

When dividing the polynomial using synthetic division, which of the following setup boxes would be used?
Galina-37 [17]

The setup boxes in the synthetic division are (b)

<h3>How to determine the setup boxes?</h3>

The dividend is given as:

x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6

The divisor is given as:

x - 2

Set the divisor to 0

x - 2 = 0

Solve for x

x = 2

Remove the variables in the dividend

1 + 4 + 1 - 6

Remove the arithmetic signs

1  4  1 - 6

So, the setup is:

2 | 1  4  1 - 6

Hence, the setup boxes are (b)
