Answer:

27 quarters and 37 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels are 5¢

Quarters are 25¢

$8.60 is 172 nickels (860/5)

$8.60 is 34.4 quarters (860/25)

So then let's split it half-and-half.

425 and 435

425 would become 17 quarters.

435 would become 87 nickels.

This is still too much.

Now let's try 700 and 160.

700 would become 28 quarters

160 would become 32 nickels.

28+32=60.

This is a lot closer.

So now 27 quarters and 37 nickels. This works.

Nestor works at a garden center where he posts plants. It takes him 2 1/2 hours to pot 15 plants. How many plants can Nestor pot

guapka [62]

Answer:

Nestor can pot 6 plants in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets convert 2 1/2 hours in mixed fraction form for better calculation

2 1/2 hours = (2*2 + 1)/2 = 5/2 hours

no of plants pot in 5/2 hours = 15

to find no. of plants pot in 1 hours lets

divide both side by 5/2

no of plants pot in 5/2/(5/2) hours = 15/(5/2) = 15*2/5 = 6

no. of plants pot in 1 hour = 6

Thus, Nestor can pot 6 plants in 1 hour.

Ja'kniya and Alayjah are shopping at the Apple Store. Ja'kniya bought 4 screensavers and 3 Otterboxes for $29. Alayjah bought 6

Katarina [22]

Answer: Each screensaver costs $2 and each Otterbox costs $7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Cost of each screensaver and y = cost of each Otterbox.

As per given, 4x+3y=29 (i)

6x +2y = 26 (ii)

Divide both sides of (i) by 2 and the multiply it by 3 on sides , we get

9x+3y=39 (iii)

Eliminate (i) from (iii) , we get

5x = 10

⇒ x = 2 [Divide both sides by 5]

Put value of x in (i), we get

4(2)+3y=29

⇒ 8+3y= 29

⇒ 3y= 21

⇒ y =7 [Divide both sides by 7]

Hence, Each screensaver costs $2 and each Otterbox costs $7.

The table gives the scores of 6 students from a class of 25 in a competitive exam. the point estimate of the mean score for the

Ymorist [56]

The mean of the scores if 6 students in a competitive exam is 25 marks.

Given scores of 6 students are: 10,30,50,40,20 in a competitive exam.

We have to find out the mean of the mark of 6 students in a competitive exam.

Mean is the sum of all the values in a set of data, such as numbers, measurements, divided by the number of values. It is also known as average.

Mean=∑X/n

∑X=10+30+50+40+20

=150

N=6

Now to calculate the mean we have to divide 150 by number of students which is 6.

Mean=150/6

=25 marks.

Hence the mean of the scores of 6 students is 25 marks.
