Yolanda paid for her movie ticket using 28 coins, all nickels and quarters. The ticket cost $4. Which system of linear equations can be used to find the numberof nickels, n, and the number of quarters, q, Yolanda used?

Answers

Answer 1
If nickels and quarters add up to 28 coins then it would be
n + q = 28

If nickels are .05 and quarters are .25 and the total is $4 then it would be
.05n + .25q = 4
Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\left \{ {{n+q=28} \atop {n(0.05)+q(0.25)=4}} \right.[/tex]

And the pair [tex](n,q)=(15,13)[/tex] is the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Yolanda paid for her movie ticket using 28 coins. She only paid with nickels and quarters.

We also know that the ticket cost $4.

We need to form a linear equation system that solves this problem.

We have the following variables :

n : number of nickels

q : number of quarters

We know that she used 28 coins ⇒ the number of nickels plus the number of quarters must be equal to 28.

We have our first equation :

[tex]n+q=28[/tex] (I)

For the second equation we need to use the ticket price information.

We know that the ticket cost $4 and she only paid with nickels and quarters.

Therefore we can write the following equation that relates the variable ''n'' and the variable ''q'' :

[tex]n(0.05)+q(0.25)=4[/tex] (II)

This equation represents that the number of nickels ''n'' per its value plus the number of quarters ''q'' per its value is equal to $4 that it is the value of the movie ticket.

With (I) and (II) we form the linear equation system :

[tex]\left \{ {{n+q=28} \atop {n(0.05)+q(0.25)=4}} \right.[/tex]

This linear equation system can be used to find the value of ''n'' and ''q''.

For example, in equation (I)

[tex]n+q=28[/tex]

we can solve it in terms of ''n'' :

[tex]n=28-q[/tex] (III)

If we use (III) in (II) :

[tex](28-q)(0.05)+q(0.25)=4[/tex]

[tex]1.4-(0.05)q+(0.25)q=4[/tex]

[tex]q(0.2)=2.6[/tex]

[tex]q=\frac{2.6}{0.2}=13[/tex]

[tex]q=13[/tex]

Now replacing this value of q in (III) :

[tex]n=28-13=15[/tex]

[tex]n=15[/tex]

We find that Yoland used 15 nickels and 13 quarters to paid the movie ticket .

1. Rewrite the system:

 x+12y=68  (i)
 x=8y-12   (ii)

 2. Let's substitute the equation (ii) into the equation (i):

 x+12y=68
 (8y-12)+12y=68

 3. Then, you have:

 8y-12+12y=68

 4. When you clear "y", you have:

 20y-12=68
 20y=68+12
 20y=80
 y=80/20
 y=4

 5. You already have the value of "y". Now, you must substitute this value into the equation (ii):

 x=8y-12
 x=8(4)-12
 x=32-12
 x=20

 6. Therefore, the result is:

 x=20

B. $39,600.00
C. $88,712.07
D. $93,429.71

Answers

if im not wrong then i sure its C

Answer:

After 35 years balance in the account  = $93429.71

Explanation:

We will applying the compound interest formula.

A = [tex] P(1 +\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  [/tex]

Where,

A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest

P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount)

r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

n = the number of times that interest is compounded per year

t = the number of years

Given that,

P = $6000

r = 8% = [tex] \frac{8}{100}  [/tex] = 0.08

n = 2 (because of twice in a year)

t = 35 years

[tex] A= 6000(1 + \frac{0.08}{2}) ^{2*35}  [/tex]

A = 6000[tex] (1.04)^{70}  [/tex]

A= $93429.71    (Option D)

1 - yes 100 and 75 are both collinear both are the same line.

2 - She can conclude that there both similar because the both go the same direction and both same shape.

3 - AB would equal 150 because the other one was 100 and the other angle was 25 down. So AB would equal 150.

300 pounds of oranges were purchased at $0.24 per pound. The desired markup is 50% based on selling price, but 21% spoilage is expected. What should the selling price per pound be? (Round your answer to the nearest cent)

Answers

The selling price per pound, considering 50% markup and 21% spoilage, should be approximately $2.74, rounded to nearest cent.

To find the selling price per pound, we need to consider the cost, the desired markup, and the expected spoilage.

First, let's calculate the total cost of the oranges:

Total cost = Quantity * Cost per pound

Total cost = 300 pounds * $0.24/pound

Total cost = $72

Next, let's calculate the selling price per pound with the desired markup:

Markup based on selling price = 50%

Let's denote the selling price per pound as S.

[tex]\[S = \frac{{\text{Total cost}}}{{1 - \text{Markup}}} \times (1 + \text{Markup})\]\[S = \frac{{72}}{{1 - 0.50}} \times (1 + 0.50)\]\[S = \frac{{72}}{{0.50}} \times 1.50\]\[S = 144 \times 1.50\]\[S = 216\][/tex]

So, the selling price per pound, without considering spoilage, should be $2.16.

However, since 21% spoilage is expected, we need to adjust the selling price per pound to account for the expected loss.

[tex]\[S_{\text{adjusted}} = \frac{{S}}{{1 - \text{Spoilage}}} = \frac{{2.16}}{{1 - 0.21}} = \frac{{2.16}}{{0.79}} \approx 2.738\][/tex]

Rounding to the nearest cent, the selling price per pound, accounting for expected spoilage and desired markup, should be approximately $2.74.

55.9 is what percent of 545.8? Click to select the correct answer. Round answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

305 because 545.8*.559= 305.1022
Final answer:

55.9 is approximately 10% of 545.8. To calculate this, divide 55.9 by 545.8 and then multiply by 100 to get the percentage, and round to the nearest whole number as per the precision of the given values.

Explanation:

To find what percent 55.9 is of 545.8, we use the formula for percentage: Percentage = (Part / Whole) × 100. Plugging in the numbers, we get:

Percentage = (55.9 / 545.8) × 100

Executing the division first (as per order of operations), we have:

Percentage = 0.1024 × 100

Now, multiplying by 100 to convert to a percentage:

Percentage = 10.24%

Rounding this to the nearest whole number, we get 10%. Because the question requires following proper rounding rules based on significant figures, we consider the least precise number provided - 55.9 (tenths place) - when determining the final answer. Therefore, we round the percentage to the tenths place to coincide with the precision of the given values.

Why might algebra tiles not be a good tool to use to factor x^2 + 18x + 80? Explain.

Answers

Algebra tiles might not be a good tool to use to factor the polynomial x^2 + 18x  + 80 because you would need too many tiles and a large space to place them.

The algebra tiles procedure consists on using tiles to represent each kind of term: x^2, x and unit

It is easy to factor an expression like x^2 + 3x + 2 because you can do it placing one positive x^2 tile in the upper left corner, two x tiles on the right side of the x^2 tile, one x tile below the x^2 tile, and two unit tiles in the bottom right corner, since the factored expression is (x + 1)(x + 2).

But the factored expression of x^2 + 18x + 80 is (x + 10)(x + 8): 10 + 8 = 18 and 10 * 8 = 80.

Those factors means that the rectangle to be formed would need you to place one positive x^2 in the upper left corner, 10 x tiles on the right side of the x^2 tile, 8x tiles below the x^2 tile, and 80 unit tiles to fill the rectangle. That is not practical.

Sample Response: Algebra tiles would not be a good tool to use to factor the trinomial because you would need to drag an x-squared tile, 18 x-tiles, and 80 plus tiles. That is a total of 99 tiles. It would take a lot of time to drag that many tiles on the board and there might not be enough space to hold all of them. You would also need to determine how to arrange all those tiles to make a rectangle. Since 80 is a multiple of 10, you might recognize that 10 and 8 are the factors that add to 18, which would give you the values to use in the X method.
