Answer:

Number of dimes = 16

Number of quarters = 17

====================================================

Work Shown:

d = number of dimes

q = number of quarters

d+q = 33 coins total, this solves to d = 33-q

10d = value of all the dimes in cents

25q = value of all the quarters in cents

10d+25q = 585 cents total

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

Plug in d = 33-q and solve for q

10d+25q = 585

10(33-q) + 25q = 585

330-10q+25q = 585

15q+330 = 585

15q = 585-330

15q = 255

q = 255/15

q = 17

The man has 17 quarters

d = 33-q = 33-17 = 16

He also has 16 dimes.

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

Check:

16 dimes + 17 quarters = 33 coins total

16 dimes = 16*10 = 160 cents

17 quarters = 17*25 = 425 cents

160 cents + 425 cents = 585 cents

The answer is confirmed.

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the parabola y=x2+10x+4
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

x-intercepts: -5 +/-\sqrt{21}. y-intercept: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

For x-intercepts use the quadratic equation

x= (-b +/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} )/2a

Fill in your values:

x= (-10 +/-\sqrt{100-16} )/2

And solve

x=-5 +/- \sqrt{21}

For y-intercepts set x=0 and solve. In this case, setting x= 0 gives you y=4.

An alloy is a mixture of metals. Suppose that a certain alloy is made by mixing 50 g of an alloy containing 12% copper with 78 g
givi [52]

Given :

An alloy is a mixture of metals. Suppose that a certain alloy is made by mixing 50 g of an alloy containing 12% copper with 78 g of an alloy containing 92% copper.

To Find :

How many grams of copper are in the resulting mixture what percentage of the resulting mixture is copper.

Solution :

Mass of copper in 50 gm alloy = 50\times 0.12 = 6\ gram.

Mass of copper in 78 gm alloy = 78\times 0.98 = 76.44\ gram.

Total mass of copper, ( 6 + 76.44 ) gm = 82.44 gram.

Percentage of copper in resulting mixture :

\%=\dfrac{82.44}{50+78}\\\\\%=64.4\ \%

Hence, this is the required solution.
