Carlos has a box of coins that he uses when playing poker with friends. The box currently contains 46 coins consisting of pennies dimes and quarters. The number of pennies is equal to the number of dimes and the total value is $4.09. How many of each denomination of coin does he have?

Answers

Answer 1

We must write and solve a system of equations to see how many of each type of coin Carlos has.

The answer is:

There are 19 pennies.There are 19 dimes.There are 8 quarters.

We start by defining the variables:

x = number of pennies in the box.y = number of dimes in the box.z = number of quarters in the box.

We know there are 46 coins in total, thus:

x + y + z= 46

The number of pennies and dimes is the same, thus:

x = y

The total value of the coins in the box is $4.09, then:

x*$0.01 + y*$0.10 + z*$0.25 = $4.09

So we can write the system of equations:

x + y + z= 46

x = y

x*$0.01 + y*$0.10 + z*$0.25 = $4.09

First, we can replace x by y in the first and third equations (by using the second one) to get:

2y + z =  46

y*$0.11 + z*$0.25 = $4.09

Now we can isolate z in the first equation to get:

z = 46 - 2y

And replace that in the other equation:

y*$0.11 + (46 - 2y)*$0.25 = $4.09

Now we can solve the equation for y:

y*$0.11 + (46 - 2y)*$0.25 = $4.09

y*$0.11 + $11.50 - y*$0.50 = $4.09

y*($0.11 - $0.50) = $4.09 - $11.50

y*(-$0.39) = -$7.41

y = (-$7.41)/(-$0.39) = 19

if y = 19, then x = 19

By using the first equation:

x + y + z = 46

19 + 19 + z = 46

z = 46 - 19 - 19  = 8

We can conclude that:

There are 19 pennies.There are 19 dimes.There are 8 quarters.

The simplified form of the expression 7 ²/₅ = (2/3) x - 4 ¹/₂ for the value of x is 357/20 or 17.85.

What is an algebraic expression?

An algebraic expression is consists of variables, numbers with various mathematical operations,

The given expression is,

7 ²/₅ = (2/3) x - 4 ¹/₂

Simplify the expression,

37/5 = (2/3)x - 9/2

37/5 + 9/2 = (2/3)x

(74 + 45) / 10 = (2/3)x

119 / 10 = (2/3)x

357/20 = x

x = 357 / 20

x = 17.85

The simplest form for the value of x, of the given expression, is 357 / 20.

If Martin buys a coke for $1.85 on a credit card that charges 22% interest compounded monthly what will the coke actually cost him if he does not pay the credit card off in five years?

Answers

Using compound interest, it is found that the coke will actually cost him $5.50.

Compound interest:

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

A(t) is the amount of money after t years.  P is the principal(the initial sum of money).  r is the interest rate(as a decimal value).  n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.  t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this problem:

The coke is bought for $1.85, hence [tex]P = 1.85[/tex].The interest rate is of 22%, hence [tex]r = 0.22[/tex].It is compounded monthly, hence [tex]n = 12[/tex].Five years, hence [tex]n = 5[/tex]

Then:

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

[tex]A(5) = 1.85\left(1 + \frac{0.22}{12}\right)^{12(5)}[/tex]

[tex]A(5) = 5.50[/tex]

The coke will actually cost him $5.50.

The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if necessary). 7,10,13,...

Find the 33rd term.

Answers

The 33rd term of the arithmetic sequence, 7,10,13.... is: 103

Recall:

An arithmetic sequence has a common difference, d, which is the difference between consecutive terms.nth term of an arithmetic sequence is found using: an = a + (n - 1)d, where, a is the first term and  d is the common difference.

The sequence, 7,10,13,... is an arithmetic sequence because:

13 - 10 = 10 - 7 = 3

Therefore, to find the 33rd term, substitute a = 7, n = 33, and d = 3 into an = a + (n - 1)d.

Thus:

[tex]a_{33[/tex] = 7 + (33 - 1)3

[tex]a_{33[/tex] = 7 + (32)3

[tex]a_{33[/tex] = 103.
