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.
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]
police chase a car. police are originally 5 miles behind. if the police car's speed is 90 mph and the car they chase is moving with a speed of 80 mph. how long will it take them to catch up?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of hours for
the police to catch up to the car.
We have 90x = 80x + 5.
=> 10x = 5
=> x = 0.5.
Hence it will take them 30 minutes.

A chain of sports shops catering to beginning skiers, headquartered in Aspen, Colorado, plans to conduct a study of how much a beginning skier spends on her initial purchase and supplies. Based on these figures, to explore the possibility of offering combinations, such as a pair ofboots pair skis, induce customers to buy more. As of cash register receipts revealed these initial purchases:$85 $139 $161 $175 $85 $133 $149 $145 $136 131 290235 132 149 322 214 105 90 162 229 121 113 149 126139 118 156 214 172 87 172 230 195 126 128 142 118 139(a) Find the smallest class interval, use five classes.(b) What would be a better class interval?
Answer:
47.4 ;
50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data :
X ($) : 85 139 161 175 85 133 149 145 136 131 290 235 132 149 322 214 105 90 162 229 121 113 149 126139 118 156 214 172 87 172 230 195 126 128 142 118 139
The smallest class interval :
Range / number of classes
Number of classes to use = 5
Range = Maximum - Minimum = (322 - 85) =237
Hence, smallest class interval :
237 / 5 = 47.4
A better class interval would be, one without decimal, rounded to the nearest 10; this will be easier and make more statistical sense
Hence, smallest class interval rounded to the nearest 10 :
47.4 = 50 (nearest 10)
A triangle has a base of 4x+2 and a height of x+4. Find the area.
Answer:
15 height
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2x^2 + 9x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a triangle, use the formula, 1/2 · base · height = area.
If we plug the given expressions into the formula, we get
1/2(4x+2)(x+4)
Which simplifies to
(2x+1)(x+4)
=2x^2 + 9x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of tomatoes to pepper plants in the garden is 5:2. If there are 6 more tomato plants than pepper plants, how many pepper plants are in the garden?
The ratio from tomatoes to pepper plants is 5:2
Meaning there are 5 tomatoes and 2 pepper plants
In order to find a ratio where there are 6 more tomatoes than pepper plants you will have to multiply.
-----
When the ratio 5:2 is multiplied by 2
it equals 10:4
We can stop here because it is shown that now there are 6 more tomatoes than pepper plants.
-----
So there are:
10 tomatoes
and
4 pepper plants!

The area of the parallelogram is 315 square units. What is the height of the parallelogram?
Answer:
h = 15 units
Step-by-step explanation:
A = bh
315 = 21h
h = 315/21
h = 15
Answer:
15 sq. units
Step-by-step explanation:
The Intuition for why the area of a parallelogram is A=bh (area = base x height)
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is base times height, just like the formula for the area of a rectangle.
Have a great day!
Lavilla is a famous resort in Italy. All of its rooms are always booked in the winter season. On average, 2800 skiers come to the resort every week (7 days). On average, skiers stay in Lavilla for 4 days. Each skier spends $40 daily in local restaurants. Question 1 (1 point) The average number of skiers in Lavilla is: _____________ [skiers].
Answer:
The average number of skiers in Lavilla are 1,600 skiers
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of skiers that come to Lavilla on average each week = 2,800 skiers
The number of days each skier stays in Lavilla = 4 days
The amount each skier spends in local restaurants daily = $40
According to Little's Law, we have;
L = λ·W
Where;
L = The average number of skiers in Lavilla
λ = The effective arrival rate of the skiers = 2,800 skiers per week arrive
W = The number of days each skier stays at Lavilla = 4 days = 4/7 week
The average number of skiers in Lavilla, 'L', is therefore, given as follows;
L = 2,800 skiers/weel × (4/7) week = 1,600 skiers
The average number of skiers in Lavilla, L = 1,600 skiers
Researchers interviewed street prostitutes in Canada and the United States. The mean age of the 100 Canadian prostitutes upon entering prostitution was 19 with a standard deviation of seven. The mean age of the 130 United States prostitutes upon entering prostitution was 21 with a standard deviation of nine. Is the mean age of entering prostitution in Canada lower than the mean age in the United States
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The null and the alternative hypothesis is:
[tex]H_o: \mu_c \ge \mu_{us}[/tex]
[tex]H_a : \mu_c < \mu_{us}[/tex]
The t- student test statistics can be computed as:
[tex]t = \dfrac{x_c- x_{us}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_c^2}{n_c} + \dfrac{\sigma_{us}^2}{n_{us}} }}[/tex]
[tex]t = \dfrac{19- 21}{\sqrt{\dfrac{7^2}{100} + \dfrac{8^2}{130} }}[/tex]
t = -2.017
degree of freedom = (n₁ - 1) + (n₂ - 1)
= (100 - 1) + (130 - 1)
= 228
Using the data of t-value and degree of freedom;
The P-value = -0.224
Decision rule: Do not reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is greater than ∝(0.01)
Conclusion: We reject the null hypothesis since the p-value is less than ∝.
Therefore, there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean age of entering prostitution in Canada is lower than that of the United States.

x>−3
Answer:
The smallest possible value that x could take is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Integer values:
Integer values can be either positive or negative, with no decimal parts. The integer set is given by:
{...,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,....}
x>−3
We want the first integer on the number line that is greater than -3. This is -2.
So the smallest possible value that x could take is -2.

Define/explain the Pythagorean theorem.
Answer: The Pythagorean theorem consists of a formula a^2+b^2=c^2 which is used to figure out the value of (mostly) the hypotenuse in a right triangle. It's a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the legs.
