Linear equation are the equation which has the power of the unknown variable is 1. The Emily have total 2 number of dimes coin and total 6 number of nickels coin.

<h3>Given information-</h3>

Emily has 8 coins in her purse totaling 50 cents

The only kinds of coins she has are nickels and dimes.

<h3>Nickel</h3>

A nickel is a coin which has the value equal to the 5 cents.

<h3>Dimes</h3>

A dimes is a coin which has the value equal to the 10 cents.

Suppose the number of nickel coin is <em>x </em>and the number of dimes coin is <em>y.</em>

As total coins are 8 . Thus,

$x+y=8$

$x=8-y$ ......equation 1

As the total value of the cents is 50 and nickel is equal to the 5 cents whereas the dimes is equal to the 10 cents. Thus,

$5x+10y=50$

Put the value of the <em>x</em> from the equation 1 in the above equation.

$\begin{aligned}5(8-y)+10y &=50\\40-5y+10y &=50\\5y &=50-40\\y&=\dfrac{10}{5} \\y&=2\end$

Thus Emily have total 2 number of dimes coin.

Put this value of y in equation 1 we get,

$x=8-2\\x=6$

Thus Emily have total 6 number of nickels coin.

Hence the Emily have total 2 number of dimes coin and total 6 number of nickels coin.

D) If C.P. - Rs 100, S.P. Rs 80, then loss percent

AfilCa [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price = Rs.80

Cost price = Rs.100

here, CP > SP

Now...

Loss ( L ) = CP - SP

= RS.100 - 80

= Rs.20

Now...

$loss \: percent \: = \frac{loss}{CP} \times 100%$

$= \frac{2000}{100} \\$

= 20 %

A violin was on sale of 50%

irinina [24]

If it is 50% then it should be half of the original price.

For Example: $30.00 - 50%... the answer would be $15.00 since its the half of the $30.00

$f(x) = -x^2-7x-6$

As $x \to \pm \infty$ , $y \to - \infty$ .

This can be easily verified by looking at the graph (graph of a quadratic equation).

30.

The growth of a population is not linear, it's exponential.

31.

Exponential growth > polynomial, so $y = 3^x$ .

35.

$V(t) = 30\cdot (25)^{\frac{t}{20}}$

The question is asking V(t) for t = 40.

$V(40) = 30\cdot (25)^{\frac{40}{20}} \\~\\V(40) = 30\cdot 25^2 \\~\\V(40) = 30\cdot 625 \\~\\V(40) = 18750$

36.

The point of symmetry of a quadratic equation $y = ax^2+bx+c$ is at its vertice:

$V_x = \dfrac{-b}{2a}$

$V_x = \dfrac{6}{2}$

$V_x = 3$

The line is x= 3.

The formula for velocity of an object is the equals d over t where he is a velocity of the object t is the distance traveled and

butalik [34]

Answer:

$(a)\ t =\frac{d}{v}$

$(b)\ d = vt$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is mixed up with details of another question. See comment for original question</em>

<em />

<u>Given</u>

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

$v \to velocity$

$d \to distance$

$t \to time$

Solving (a): Solve for time

We have:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

Cross multiply

$t * v = d$

Make t the subject

$t =\frac{d}{v}$

Solving (b): Solve for distance

We have:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

Cross multiply

$d = v * t$

$d = vt$
