A collection of quarters, dimes, and nickels is worth $5.00. If the ratio of quarters to dimes is 2:4:7, how many quarters are there ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 quarters

Explanation:

Let's look at the ratio first off.

2 quarters: 4 dimes: 7 nickels

Let's write it in terms of money

50 cents of quarters: 40 cents of dimes: 35 cents of nickels

If we add up all the cents then we get $1.25

Then, if we divide $5 by $1.25 we get 4.

You should then multiply the original ratio by 4:

8 quarters: 16 dimes: 28 nickels

Let's check this by turning it to money:

$2: $1.60: $1.4

This all adds up to $5

Therefore your answer is 8 quarters.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

There are $0.769 worth of quarters in the collection.

How do we solve word problems with ratios?

Word problems with ratios are being solved by adding the ratios together, then relating that portion we are expected to determine to the sum total of the added ratio.

Mathematically, from the given information, we have:

The total worth of the collection = $5.00In the same order of quarters, dime, and nickels, the ratios are 2:4:7

The sum total of these ratios are;
= 2 + 4 + 7

= 13

Now, the number of quarters in the whole collection can be computed as:

[tex]\mathbf{= \dfrac{2}{13}\times \$5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{= \dfrac{2}{13}\times \$5 } \\ \\ \\ = \mathbf{\$0.769}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Point of View

Explanation:      

As far as communication is concerned, the Point of View refers to the point of view from which a person delivers their information. The wrong point of view may shortcircuit the process of information transmission.

Effective communication entails deciding what as well as how, when, and to whom it will be communicated. The best forms of communication take very careful consideration of the recipient's point of view or paradigm.

For example, a doctor who has just rushed his sick son to the hospital, in response to a question about his whereabouts, may tell his friend that he is just returning from the hospital.

Now, if he doesn't give the right perception, the friend may think he is just returning from a duty call and may treat the remainder of the evening casually or as usual.

But imagine that he says,

"my son asphyxiated and I had to rush him to the hospital. My colleagues did great work of stabilizing him. I'm just going back home to freshen up. I'll be staying with him for the next 6-9 hours for which he would be under observation."

This would completely change the dynamics of the next questions and comments by the doctor's friend.

In the second response, the doctor has taken into consideration the fact that his friend knows him to be a doctor and takes for granted that he must frequent the hospital every day whilst he is on duty and that sometimes even when he is on leave, and there is a case that requires his urgent attention, he must visit the hospital.

So he has to deliberately communicate the reason why he went to the hospital and that is where the paradigm shifts.

Answer:

(Of a person) Having ones true identity concealed

Answer:

When you wish to accomplish something without being seen, become incognito, which means concealing your actual identity. It's ironic that the terms recognize and incognito are both connected to the Latin verb cognoscere, which means "to learn," because you don't want to be recognized while you're doing anything incognito.

Explanation:

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf Popular \ sovereignty}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Let's define each answer choice.

Great Compromise

This was a combination of the New Jersey Plan and Virginia Plan. The NJ plan called for one Congress house with equal representation. The VA Plan vouched for two houses in Congress with representation based on population. The compromise resulted in present-day Congress with equal representation in the Senate and population-proportionate representation in the House of Representatives.

Due Process

Citizens must be treated justly and all of their rights must be observed and followed in legal proceedings.

Popular Sovereignty

The idea that people ("consent of the governed") provide the power for a government.

Based on our definitions above, we can assume that the "idea that declares people have the power in creation of government" is popular sovereignty.

WHY DO CATS PURR ASAP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF YOU DO TEN SENTENCES


50 POINTS

Answers

Answer:

Purring is a kind of defence mechanism, and a way for your cat to remain calm when they're stressed . Just as your cat's purring can make you feel calmer, it helps to soothe them too. That's why a lot of cats purr on the vet's table - even when they aren't happy. Purring is more than just a method of non-verbal communication.

Explanation:

Answer:

Although we assume that a cat's purr is an expression of pleasure or is a means of communication with its young, perhaps the reasons for purring can be deciphered from the more stressful moments in a cat's life. Cats often purr while under duress, such as during a visit to the veterinarian or when recovering from injury. Thus, not all purring cats appear to be content or pleased with their current circumstances. This riddle has lead researchers to investigate how cats purr, which is also still under debate.   Scientists have demonstrated that cats produce the purr through intermittent signaling of the laryngeal and diaphragmatic muscles. Cats purr during both inhalation and exhalation with a consistent pattern and frequency between 25 and 150 Hertz. Various investigators have shown that sound frequencies in this range can improve bone density and promote healing. Cats have adapted to conserve energy via long periods of rest and sleep, it is possible that purring is a low energy mechanism that stimulates muscles and bones without a lot of energy. Perhaps cats' purring helps alleviate the dysplasia or osteoporotic conditions that are more common in their canid cousins. Although it is tempting to state that cats purr because they are happy, it is more plausible that cat purring is a means of communication and a potential source of self-healing.

Short answer: Cats purr as a way to calm themselves, to communicate, self-heal.

Which of these correctly identifies the way materials are transported in a plant? Select one: Phloem carries water from the flowers to the stems. Xylem carries sugars from the flowers to the stems. Phloem carries minerals from the roots to the leaves.

Answers

Answer: Xylem carries water from the roots to the leaves.

Explanation:

The above option is a missing option to your question and the correct one.

The Xylem is a kind of vascular tissue that plants have which helps in the transportation of water. It gets water from the roots and transports it to the leaves. It also transports dissolved minerals in the water to those leaves as well.

Phloem tissue transports food from the leaves where it is made to the roots.

Answer:

Xylem carries water from the roots to the leaves.

Explanation:

how Xylem carries water from the roots to the leaves. Let me tell you.The tension created by transpiration “pulls” water in the plant xylem, drawing the water upward in much the same way that you draw water upward when you suck on a straw. Cohesion (water sticking to each other) causes more water molecules to fill the gap in the xylem as the top-most water is pulled toward the stomata.
