mayra has $2.95 in nickels and dimes. the number of dimes is 3 less than twice the number of nickels. find the number of nickels.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mayra has 13 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent dimes with D and nickels with N.

So, from the first statement:

[tex]0.10D + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

From the second statement:

[tex]D = 2N - 3[/tex]

Required

Find N

Substitute 2N - 3 for D in [tex]0.10D + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

[tex]0.10(2N - 3) + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]0.10*2N - 0.10*3 + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

[tex]0.20N - 0.30 + 0.05N = 2.95[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]0.20N + 0.05N = 2.95+0.30[/tex]

[tex]0.25N = 3.25[/tex]

Make N the subject:

[tex]N = \frac{3.25}{0.25}[/tex]

[tex]N = 13[/tex]

please help me!!!!! its due tonight!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:check explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so for Part A: since B is the midpoint of SM, SM=SB+BM. Therefore, you can set them both equal to each other which would be 4x=98.3. You divide both sides by 4 to get the value of x which is 24.575. Now you substitute 24.575 back into 4x and you get 98.3. Since SM=SB+BM, you do 98.3+98.3 and SM=196.6.

Part B: For part b you do the same thing as A to find the values of x y and x. You already know that x=24.575. For Y, since T is the midpoint of DS you can set ST=TD. This means that 123.4=2/5y. When you solve for y you get y=308.5. Lastly, for z since N is the midpoint of MD, MN=ND. So 102=7/10z. When you solve for z you get approximately 145.7. Now you just add them together -- 24.575+308.5+145.7= 478.775.

Part C: NT is half of SM. Since SM is 196.6, NT is 98.3. TB is half of MD. MD is 203.99 so TB is 101.995. BN is half of SD. SD is 246.8 so BN is 123.4

So, NT+TB-BN is 98.3+101.995-123.4 which equals 76.895

1 bag of pretzels cost four dollars. Five bags of pretzels cost $12.00. Which has the lower unit price??

Answers

Answer:

The 5 bags of pretzels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because if you were to buy 5 individual bags you would end up paying $20.00, instead of $12.00

Answer:

The second option

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the unit price of each, consider the quotient of amount of money per bag:

Case 1:

$4/ 1 bag

Case2:

$12 / 5 bags = $2.4 / 1 bag

Therefore, the second option is the one with lower unit price.

Dean is comparing prices on ground beef. Store A is selling 5 pounds of ground beef for $23.49. Store B is selling 8 pounds of ground beef for $36.96. Which store is offering the better deal on ground beef? Show work

Answers

Answer:

Store B

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to set up an equation for each store

Store A  (you have 5 pounds of something sold at $x per pound. which together totals $23.49)

[tex]5x=$23.49[/tex]

Store B (you have 8 pounds of something sold at $x per pound. which together totals $36.96)

[tex]8x=36.96[/tex]

Then you want to isolate the x for each equation to find the price per pound. You do this by diving each total cost, by how many pounds that you get.

Store A: $23.49/5 pounds= $4.698

Store B: $36.96/ 8 pounds = $4.62

This gives you a price per pound, so B is the correct answer because B is $0.07 cheaper per pound, giving you the better deal.

Taylor opened a savings account with $425. After 2 years, the total interest earned was $10.20. What was the annual interest rate?

Answers

Answer:

R = 1.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal = 425

Time = 2

Simple interest = 10.20

To find the annual interest rate;

Mathematically, simple interest is calculated using this formula;

[tex] S.I = \frac {PRT}{100} [/tex]

Where;

S.I is simple interest. P is the principal. R is the interest rate. T is the time.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] 10.20 = \frac {425*R*2}{100} [/tex]

[tex] 10.20 = \frac {850R}{100} [/tex]

Cross-multiplying, we have;

[tex] 1020 = 850R [/tex]

[tex] R = \frac {1020}{850} [/tex]

R = 1.2%

Therefore, the annual interest rate is 1.2 percent.

Adult Great Basin rattlesnakes have a mean length of 32.3 inches and a standard deviation of 5.3 inches; the length of adult Southern Pacific rattlesnakes is also 32.3 inches on average, but with a standard deviation of 7.95 inches. Both species have lengths that follow a normal distribution. You select a random sample of 36 Great Basin rattlesnakes and 100 Southern Pacific rattlesnakes. Which is more likely be shorter than 29.65 inches

Answers

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that the sample of 36 Great Basin rattlesnakes is more likely to be shorter than 29.65 inches.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For the Sample of 36 Great Basin rattlesnakes:

The mean is [tex]\mu = 32.3[/tex].The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 5.3[/tex].Sample of 36, hence [tex]n = 36, s = \frac{5.3}{\sqrt{36}} = 0.88[/tex]We are interested in the percentile of 29.65 inches, hence [tex]X = 29.65[/tex].

Then:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{29.65 - 32.3}{0.88}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.01[/tex]

For the Sample of 100 Southern Pacific rattlesnakes:

The mean is [tex]\mu = 32.3[/tex].The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 7.95[/tex].Sample of 100, hence [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{7.95}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.795[/tex]We are interested in the percentile of 29.65 inches, hence [tex]X = 29.65[/tex].

Then:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{29.65 - 32.2}{0.795}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.33[/tex]

Due to the higher z-score, the random sample of 36 Great Basin rattlesnakes is at a higher percentile, hence it is more likely to be shorter than 29.65 inches,
