A jar contains only nickels, dimes and quarters. There is at least one of each type of coin in the jar. If the total value of the coins in the jar equals 60 cents, how many quarters are in the jar?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: There is 1 quarter in the jar

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we see that there needs to be at least one coin of each; a nickel, a dime, and a quarter.

5+10+25=40 (cents)

A quarter is worth 25 cents, and the total value is only 60, so it is impossible for the quarter value to be more than one, otherwise breaking the total value of 60 cents.

4. Write the equation of a line that passes through the point (-8, 2) and is parallel to the
line 3x – 2y = 12.​

Answers

Answer:

3x - 2y = - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

3x - 2y = 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- 2y = - 3x + 12 ( divide all terms by - 2 )

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x - 6 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 8, 2) into the partial equation

2 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 12 = 14

y = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] x + 14 ← equation in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 2

2y = 3x + 28  ( subtract 2y from both sides )

0 = 3x - 2y + 28 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

- 28 = 3x - 2y , that is

3x - 2y = - 28 ← equation in standard form

Janelle would like to give a party bag to every person who is coming to her party. The cost of the party bag is $7 per person. Write an inequality that describes the number of people P that she can invite if Janelle has No more than $95 dollars to spend on the party bags.

Answers

Answer: Inequality that describes the number of people P that she can invite if Janelle has No more than $95 dollars to spend on the party bags: 7P  ≤  95  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The cost of the party bag is $7 per person.

P represents the number of people that she can invite.

Total cost for P people = ( cost per person) x (P)

=$ 7P   (i)

If  Janelle has No more than $95 dollars to spend on the party bags.

That means , Total cost ≤ $ 95

From (i)

7P  ≤  95   , which is the required inequality.

Please help, this is my first time! Here is the question: Maria earned a total of $504 the last two days. She worked 8 hours the first day, 4 hours the second day. How much did Maria earn every hour? Please show how you did it, this is my first time, so please help.

Answers

Answer:

$42 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Well,

She got $504 in total

8 + 4 = 12 (the total number of hours worked)

To find out how much she earned per hour you'll need to divide.

$504 ÷ 12

which equals $42

Answer:

Maria earned $42 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to add the total amount of hours she worked.

8 + 4 = 12

Next, we need to divide 504 and 12 to see how much she earned per hour.

504 ÷ 12 = 42.

So, Maria earned $42 per hour.

Which must be present in order for factoring by grouping to apply? - The ratios of the first two terms and the second two terms must be positive. - The ratio of the first two terms must be equivalent to the ratio of the last two terms. - There must be at least three terms. - The first and the last terms must be perfect squares.

Answers

Answer:

For factoring by grouping to apply, the ratio of the first two terms must be equal to the ratio of the last two terms

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select which of the options must be present in order for factoring by grouping to apply.

The correct answer is that the ratio of the first two terms must be equivalent to the ratio of the last two terms

What this mean is that we must have an equal ratio two times

This practically plays out each time we are to factorize quadratic expressions

For example, in the case of

x^2 -12x + 20

This can be written as;

x^2 - 10x - 2x + 20

which can then be written as x(x-10) -2(x -10)

= (x-2)(x-10)

The first two terms have a ratio of ;

x^2/-10x while the last two terms have a ratio -2x/20

Thus, we have -x/10 and -x/10

We can see here that the ratios of both sets are equivalent

Answer:

The ratio of the first two terms must be equivalent to the ratio of the last two terms

a.What is the length of A’A?
b.What is the length of B’B
Both in units

Answers

Answer:

A'A = 18 units, B'B = 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ACB and Δ A'CB' are similar triangles, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{AC}{A'C}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AB}{A'B'}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{AC}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{8}[/tex] ( cross-  multiply )

8AC = 240 ( divide both sides by 8 )

AC = 30

Thus A'A = AC - A'C = 30 - 12 = 18 units

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

and

[tex]\frac{CB}{CB'}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AB}{A'B'}[/tex] , that is

[tex]\frac{CB}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{20}{8}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

8CB = 120 ( divide both sides by 8 )

CB = 15

Thus

B'B = CB - CB' = 15 - 6 = 9 units

6(x – 1) = 9(x + 2)
Solve

Answers

Answer:

x=−8

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x−1)=9(x+2)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6(x−1)=9(x+2)

(6)(x)+(6)(−1)=(9)(x)+(9)(2)(Distribute)

6x+−6=9x+18

6x−6=9x+18

Step 2: Subtract 9x from both sides.

6x−6−9x=9x+18−9x

−3x−6=18

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

−3x−6+6=18+6

−3x=24

Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x/−3=24/−3

for the graph of g(x) pictured below, over which of the following intervals is g(x) only decreasing?

Answers

Answer:

2. -8 < x < -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-values of the line where the line slants downwards before it begins to slant upwards to the right, is the interval at which g(x) is decreasing only.

From the graph, at x = -8, y = -2. When x = -2, y = -5.

Between the intervals of x = -8 and x = -2, g(x) decreased from -2 to -5.

Therefore, the answer is: 2. -8 < x < -2

Answers

i don’t know how much this will help as i don’t know the specific methods used in your lesson, but what i personally do is break down the number as much as i can.

32 can be simplified to 2^5. this is the fourth root, so you take out four of the 2’s to the outside by the 6. therefore it becomes 6(2) which = 12 along with the other 2 and an x left inside the fourth root “house”. btw i would write it out but brainly doesn’t let me attach pictures for some reason, and i don’t have the symbols on my keyboard. ):

we now simplify 512 in the second term. 512 is the same thing as 32 times 16, which is 2^9. we take out four of the 2’s, leaving us with 2^5. we can take four more 2’s out, leaving us with a 2 and an x in the inside of the fourth root “house”. on the outside we have 2 2’s, leaving us with a product of 4.

third term. 16 can be simplified to 4^2, or 2^4. we can take all four of them out since it’s the fourth root. there are also four x’s, so we take them out, leaving us with 2x. there isn’t anything left in the “house”.

now, we go from left to right. to better illustrate it, i will use “{ }” as the fourth root.

12 {2x} - 4 {2x} + 2x

8 {2x} + 2x . that’s as simplified as it can get. hopefully this helps! ):

A school has $15,000 to spend on computer monitors. The school plans to purchase 200 monitors for $89 each. A teacher completes the calculations below and concludes that the school has enough money to buy the monitors. 200 × 89 = (200 × 8) + (200 × 9) = 1,600 + 1,800 = 3,400

Answers

Answer:

Since the budget of the school is $15,000, the school does not have enough money to buy the monitors

Step-by-step explanation:

The school plans to purchase 200 monitors for $89 each.

This is the calculation of the teacher

200 × 89 = (200 × 8) + (200 × 9) = 1,600 + 1,800 = 3,400

The teacher's calculation is wrong

The correct calculation using Distributive property is

a(b + c) = ab + ac

200 × 89 = 200(80) + 200(9)

Because 80 + 9 = 89

Hence,

200 × $89 = 16000 + 1800

= $17,800

Since the budget of the school is $15,000, the school does not have enough money to buy the monitors

$17, 800 ≠ $15,000

For an avian research study, scientists wanted to estimate the local robin population. The scientists captured, tagged, and released 55 robins. A week later, they noted 30 tagged robins out of the 300 robins they counted. To the nearest whole number, what is the best estimate for the robin population?

Answers

Answer: The estimated number of robins in the population is 550

Step-by-step explanation: To estimate the population of robins, we will use the Mark-Recapture technique:

1) Capture a small number of individuals, mark them (with tags or other harmless identification) and release them;

2) After a period of time, catch another group and count the ones who have the mark;

3) Estimate the population using:

[tex]N=\frac{M*C}{R}[/tex]

where

N is the estimate of individuals in the population

M number of individuals marked

C is the total number of individuals captured the second time

R is the number of individuals with the mark recaptured

For the population of robins:

[tex]N=\frac{55*300}{30}[/tex]

[tex]N=\frac{16500}{30}[/tex]

N = 550

The best estimate for the robin population is 550.

Para recortar algumas figuras geométricas, um aluno utilizou uma cartolina com 1mx0,8m.

Determine em cm² quanto foi a área da cartolina que sobrou. * 1 ponto 7595cm² 0,7595m² 7190cm² 0.719m²

Answers

Answer:

7190 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Para recortar algumas figuras geométricas, um aluno utilizou uma cartolina de 1 m x 0,8m.

Passo 1

Determine a área de todo o papelão

= Temos dimensões = 1mx0,8m

Área = Comprimento × Largura

= 0,8m²

Nós convertemos para cm²

1 m² = 10.000 cm²

0,8m² = x cm²

Multiplicação cruzada

0,8m² × 10.000 cm² / 1 m²

= 8000 cm²

Passo 2

Sabendo que recortou 2 triângulos, ambos com 20cm de base e 30cm de altura

Encontramos a área de um triângulo

= 1/2 × base × altura

= 1/2 × 20 × 30

= 300cm²

Ele cortou 2 triângulos Portanto, o são dos dois triângulos = 300cm² × 2

= 600cm²

etapa 3

Ele também cortou 2 trapézios ambos com bases de 10cm e 20cm e altura de 7cm.

A área de um trapézio =

1/2 (a + b) h

= 1/2 (10cm + 20cm) × 7cm

= 1/2 × 30 × 7

= 105 cm²

Ele cortou dois trapézios, portanto

A área dos dois trapézios do corte = 105cm² × 2

= 210 cm²

Passo 4

A área total do papelão que foi cortado = 600cm² + 210cm²

= 810 cm²

Etapa 5

Determine em cm² quanto de papelão sobrou.

Isso é calculado como:

Área total do papelão - Área total que foi cortada

= 8000 cm² - 810 cm²

= 7190 cm²
