Answer: She has 40 nickels and 40 quarters .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "n" the number of nickels Theresa has and "q" the number of quarters Theresa has.
You know that she has a total of $12 in nickels and quarters. In cents, this is:
Then, based on this you can write the following expression:
Since 
, you can rewrite it as:
Solving for "n", you get:
Therefore she has 40 nickels and 40 quarters .
When the rocket accelerates up, the thrust is greater than the combined lift and drag, therefore making it go upward. Thrust from the engine / or whatever the power source is makes it lift.

8 ounces = 1cup
2 cups = 1 pint
So, 16 ounces = 2 cups = 1pint
16 ounces = 1 pint
If you have 8 ounces, you would have half a pint.
If you have 20 ounces:
20 ounces/16 ounces= 5/4
So, you'd have 1 1/4 or 1.25 pints
In a geometric sequence each number after the first is found by multiplying the previous number by a fixed number called the common ratio.
In an arithmetic sequence, each term is equal to the previous term plus or minus a constant called the common difference.
In your problem we have a sequence of numbers that appears to be decreasing in value, but on the surface it doesn't appear to be by any constant number... but if you look closely, the denominator 34 is exactly twice the other denominator 17. This would lead me to look at a common denominator to see if anything takes shape...
9/17 = 18/34
15/34
6/17 = 12/34
9/34
Now we see that each number is the previous number minus 3/34, so we have a common difference of 3/34.
This would match the definition of an arithmetic sequence and NOT a geometric sequence.
First off, we'll convert the mixed fraction to "improper" and check about, keeping in mind that, there are 5280 feet in 1mile.
