Assume Keesha has d dimes, so she has d + 10 quarters

Total money Keesha has is (d+10)*.25 + d*.1 = 11.25

or 0.35d + 2.5 = 11.25

Solving for d , d = 25

So Keesha has 25 dimes and 35 quarters, total of 60 coins

Given the sum s20= 910 of an arithmetic sequence and A20 = 95, Find A1

Inessa05 [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

Sn=n/2(2a+(n-1)d)

910=n/2{2a+(n-1)d}

1820=n{2a+(n-1)d}

1820=20{2a+(20-1)d}

1820=20{2a+19d}

91=2a+19d

An=a+(n-1)d

95=a+(20-1)d

95=a+19d

91=2a+19d

---------------

4=-a

a=-4

91=2a+19d

91=2(-4)+19d

91=-8+19d

91+8=19d

99=19d

d=99/19

A=-4

What is the equation of a circle with center -4, 7 and radius 6

Kitty [74]

Answer:

$( x + 4 )^2 + ( y - 7 )^2 = 36$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the circle equation, $( x - h )^2 + ( y - k )^2 = r^2$

Plug in the center and radius:

$( x + 4 )^2 + ( y - 7 )^2 = 6^2$

Simplify:

$( x + 4 )^2 + ( y - 7 )^2 = 36$

So, the equation is $( x + 4 )^2 + ( y - 7 )^2 = 36$
