Nell Has A Piggy Bank Full Of Dimes And Nickels. She Empties The Bank And Counts The Coins. She Counts

Answers

Answer 1

[a] A dime is worth 10 cents (0.10 dollars) and a nickel is worth 5 cents (0.05 dollars). If there are 30 coins in all, we can set up a linear equation in standard form to look like this:

    30 - n = d

Since the total is 2.9, we can do the following:

    { 30 - n = d

    { .05n + .10d = 2.90

And our system is in bold

(where n is nickels and d is dimes, you could also use x and y if you wish)

[b] She could have counted the number of dimes and nickles correctly, but she did not. The number of nickles is 2 with there being 28 dimes.

Now, we will solve:

.05n + .10(30 - n) = 2.90

.05n + 3 - .1n = 2.9

3 - .05n = 2.9

3 = .05n + 2.90

.05n = 0.1

n = 2

(dimes is 30 - 2 = 28)

Have a nice day!

HELP ME PLEASE

r | 6 + 1 =9

please help me this is due tomorrow and it’s my last question!!
if you can’t tell what it says it says R divided by 6 plus one equals 9!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{r}{6 } + 1 = 9 \\ \frac{r}{6} = 9 - 1 \\ \frac{ r }{6} = 8 \\ r = 48[/tex]

Answer:

r = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal is to get r on one side of the equation.

To do this do the same thing to both sides of the eqaution to keep it in balance.

r/6 + 1 = 9

Subtract 1 from both sides

r/6 = 8

multiply both sides by 6

r = 48

A fundamental basis of regression analysis is the assumption of a. the lack of a relationship between independent variables. b. a curvilinear relationship between two weakly associated dependent variables. c. a uniform normal distribution between dependent variables. d. a straight-line relationship between the independent and dependent variables. e. the existence of two independent variables for every dependent variable.

Answers

The correct answer is E. A fundamental basis of regression analysis is the assumption of the existence of two independent variables for every dependent variable.

Regression analysis is a statistical method that examines the dependence of a response variable on selected explanatory variables.

When studying the dependence between quantities and trying to describe a given functional dependence on a given formula, it is assumed that the dependence consists of a precisely determinable component and a random component. The relationship with this assumption is called the regression model.

Which linear equation represents the graph?
A) y = 7x + 3
B) y = 7x + 10
C) y = 1/7x+3
D) y = 1/7x+10

Answers

Answer:

y = 7x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A slope of 1/7 will give you a line that is not very steep.  Therefore C and D is not the answer.

Now look at  A and B.  Check point (1, 10) into equations A and B  because this point is on the given graph.

y = 7x + 3                                    y = 7x + 10

y = 7(1) + 3                                   y = 7(1) + 10

y = 7 + 3                                      y = 7 + 10

y = 10      (1, 10)                             y = 17            (1, 17)

What is the nth term rule of the quadratic sequence below?
-4,-3,0,5, 12, 21, 32,...
I need help quick!!

Answers

Answer:

The nth term = n^2 - 2n - 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we will be finding the nth term of a quadratic number sequence. A quadratic number sequence has nth term = an² + bn + c

Example 1

Write down the nth term of this quadratic number sequence.

-3, 8, 23, 42, 65...

Step 1: Confirm the sequence is quadratic. This is done by finding the second difference.

Sequence = -3, 8, 23, 42, 65

1st difference = 11,15,19,23

2nd difference = 4,4,4,4

Step 2: If you divide the second difference by 2, you will get the value of a.

4 ÷ 2 = 2

So the first term of the nth term is 2n²

Step 3: Next, substitute the number 1 to 5 into 2n².

n = 1,2,3,4,5

2n² = 2,8,18,32,50

Step 4: Now, take these values (2n²) from the numbers in the original number sequence and work out the nth term of these numbers that form a linear sequence.

n = 1,2,3,4,5

2n² = 2,8,18,32,50

Differences = -5,0,5,10,15

Now the nth term of these differences (-5,0,5,10,15) is 5n -10.

So b = 5 and c = -10.

Step 5: Write down your final answer in the form an² + bn + c.

2n² + 5n -10

Example 2

Write down the nth term of this quadratic number sequence.

9, 28, 57, 96, 145...

Step 1: Confirm if the sequence is quadratic. This is done by finding the second difference.

Sequence = 9, 28, 57, 96, 145...

1st differences = 19,29,39,49

2nd differences = 10,10,10

Step 2: If you divide the second difference by 2, you will get the value of a.

10 ÷ 2 = 5

So the first term of the nth term is 5n²

Step 3: Next, substitute the number 1 to 5 into 5n².

n = 1,2,3,4,5

5n² = 5,20,45,80,125

Step 4: Now, take these values (5n²) from the numbers in the original number sequence and work out the nth term of these numbers that form a linear sequence.

n = 1,2,3,4,5

5n² = 5,20,45,80,125

Differences = 4,8,12,16,20

Now the nth term of these differences (4,8,12,16,20) is 4n. So b = 4 and c = 0.

Step 5: Write down your final answer in the form an² + bn + c.

5n² + 4n

The answer is not 1465.5. Every month, Ms. Thomas pays her car loan through automatic payments (withdrawals) from her savings account. She pays the same amount on her car loan each month. At the end of the year, her savings account balance changed by -$2,931 from payments made on her car loan. What is the change is Ms. Thomas' savings account balance each month due to her car payment?

Answers

Answer:

$244.25

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the question is asking what the change in her savings account balance is each month. So, you know that you are looking for the amount that is lost each month. When it says that at the end of the year, she has payed $2,931 , what is implied is that she has spent that much over 12 months. So all that is needed to do is divide her balance change over the year by 12 to find the monthly balance change.

After 3 years: 985.89 + 0.3% = 988.85

After 4 years: 988.85 + 0.3% = 991.82

After 5 years: 991.82 + 0.3% = 994.80

In a standard deck of 52 playing cards, 13 cards are clubs, and 3 of the clubs are "face" cards (K, Q, J). What is the probability of drawing one card that is:


A) A club or a face card? Is this event a union or an intersection?


B) A club and a face card? Is this event a union or an intersection?


C) Not a club and not a face card?

Answers

A) This event is a union. If a card is of the suit of clubs or a face card or both, then it belongs to the set of "cards with clubs or a face".

For the probability in question, we use the inclusion/exclusion principle:

P(club or face) = P(club) + P(face) - P(club and face)

That is, we add the probabilities of drawing a club and of drawing a face card, and subtract the probability of both conditions being met because, in a certain sense, we've double-counted the event of the card being both of clubs and a face. The sets "club" and "face" are not disjoint; there is overlap between them.

Then we have

P(club) = 13/52

P(face) = 12/52

P(club and face) = 3/52

so that

P(club or face) = 13/52 + 12/52 - 3/52 = 22/52 = 11/26

B) This event is an intersection. If a card is of the suit of clubs and a face card, then it belongs to both the set of clubs and the set of face cards.

We already found the probability of the intersection above:

P(club and face) = 3/52

C) If a given card is not a club and not a face card, this is the same as saying the card is neither a club nor a face card. In other words,

P(not club and not face) = P(not(club or face))

and this probability is complementary to the probability that a card is either a club or face, which is to say

P(not(club or face)) = 1 - P(club or face)

Using the result from part (A), we have

P(not club and not face) = 1 - 11/26 = (26 - 11)/26 = 15/26

Where -

[m] is the slope of the line.

[c] is the y - intercept

Given is Fern who is finding the slope of the line that passes through (-2, 8) and (4, 6).

In order to find the slope of the line, the following formula is used -

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

So, the slope of the line passing through the given points can be calculated using the following steps -

m = (6 - 8)/{4 -(-2)}                       ..[1]

m = -2/6                              

m = -1/3

Fern made mistake in writing equation [1]. She should have written

{4 -(-2)} in the denominator in place of {-2 - 4}

Answers

Answer:

x = 42/5 is the answer to this question

Option B is correct, the solution to the equation is x = 42/5.

The given equation is 1/3(x + 3/5) = 3.

We have to solve for x:

x is the variable in the equation.

Multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction:

1/3(x + 3/5) × 3 = 3 × 3

(x + 3/5) = 9

Subtract 3/5 from both sides to isolate the x term:

(x + 3/5) - 3/5 = 9 - 3/5

x = 9 - 3/5

Now, to combine the terms on the right side:

x = 45/5 - 3/5

x = 42/5

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 42/5.
