Aaron has $0.70 worth of nickels and dimes. He has a total of 8 nickels and dimes altogether. By following the steps below, determine the number of nickels, x,x, and the number of dimes, y,y, that Aaron has.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  There are 2 nickels and 6 dimes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels:  x

 Dimes:  y

Constraints:

  0.05x + 0.10y = 0.70

   x + y = 8                   ===>  -0.05 * (x + y = 8)  ===>   -0.05x - 0.05y = -0.4

Add the two equations to eliminate x variable:

  0.05x + 0.10y = 0.70

 -0.05x - 0.05y = -0.4

_________________

                0.05y = 0.3         ===>    y = 6

Substitution to find x:

  x + y = 8

  x + 6 = 8

  x = 2

There are 2 nickels and 6 dimes.

Answer 2

There are 2 nickels and 6 dimes.

What is Equation?

Two or more expressions with an Equal sign is called as Equation.

Given,

Aaron has $0.70 worth of nickels and dimes.

total of 8 nickels and dimes altogether

We need to find the number of nickels and number of Dimes

Let Nickels be x and  Dimes be y

By given conditions

0.05x + 0.10y = 0.70

x + y = 8-0.05x - 0.05y = -0.4

Add the two equations to eliminate x variable:

0.05x + 0.10y -0.05x - 0.05y = 0.70 -0.4

0.05y = 0.3

Divide both sides by 0.05

y = 6

Substitution to find x:

x + y = 8

x + 6 = 8

x = 2

Hence, there are 2 nickels and 6 dimes.

What number divided by 6 leaves a remainder of 5, divided by 5 leaves a remainder of 4, divided by 4 leaves a remainder of 3, and divided by 3 leaves a remainder of 2?

Answers

Answer:

59

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is divided by [tex]n[/tex] and leaves a remainder [tex](n-1)[/tex], then the number [tex](n+1)[/tex] will be completely divisible by [tex]n[/tex].

Therefore, when we say a number [tex]x[/tex], when divided by 6, it leaves a remainder 5, then ([tex]x+1[/tex]) will be a multiple of 6.

When we say a number [tex]x[/tex], when divided by 5, it leaves a remainder 4, then ([tex]x+1[/tex]) will be a multiple of 5.

When we say a number [tex]x[/tex], when divided by 4, it leaves a remainder 3, then ([tex]x+1[/tex]) will be a multiple of 4.

When we say a number [tex]x[/tex], when divided by 3, it leaves a remainder 2, then ([tex]x+1[/tex]) will be a multiple of 3.

So, [tex]x+1[/tex] is a common multiple of 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Taking LCM of 3, 4, 5 and 6, we get 60.

So, the number 60 - 1 = 59 is the least such number.

The volume of a right circular cone is 300 cubic inches. What is the volume, in cubic inches, of a right cylinder th
has the same base and height as the cone?

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the cylinder is 900 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let V1 represent the volume of a cone and V2 represents the volume of a cylinder

[tex]V_1 = 300in^3[/tex]

Required

Determine the volume of a cylinder with same dimension

The volume of a cone is calculated as:

[tex]V_1 = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h[/tex]

The volume of a cylinder is calculated as:

[tex]V_2 = \pi r^2h[/tex]

Since, the cone and cylinder have the same dimensions, we can substitute [tex]\pi r^2h[/tex] for [tex]V_2[/tex] in [tex]V_1 = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]V_1 = \frac{1}{3} * V_2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3

[tex]3 * V_1 = \frac{1}{3} * V_2 * 3[/tex]

[tex]3 * V_1 = V_2[/tex]

[tex]V_2 = 3 * V_1[/tex]

Substitute [tex]300in^3[/tex] for [tex]V_1[/tex]

[tex]V_2 = 3 * 300in^3[/tex]

[tex]V_2 = 900in^3[/tex]

Hence, the volume of the cylinder is 900 cubic inches

The midpoint of segment AB has the coordinates M(-4,2). If the coordinates of endpoint A are (-6, -7), find the coordinates of endpoint B.​

Answers

Given:

The midpoint of segment AB has the coordinates M(-4,2).

The coordinates of endpoint A are (-6, -7).

To find:

The coordinates of B.

Solution:

Let the coordinates of point B are (a,b).

Formula for midpoint:

[tex]Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

The midpoint of segment AB has the coordinates M(-4,2), so by using the above formula we get

[tex]M=\left(\dfrac{-6+a}{2},\dfrac{-7+b}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex](-4,2)=\left(\dfrac{-6+a}{2},\dfrac{-7+b}{2}\right)[/tex]

On comparing both sides, we get

[tex]\dfrac{-6+a}{2}=-4[/tex]

[tex]-6+a=-8[/tex]

[tex]a=-8+6[/tex]

[tex]a=-2[/tex]

And,

[tex]\dfrac{-7+b}{2}=2[/tex]

[tex]-7+b=4[/tex]

[tex]b=4+7[/tex]

[tex]b=11[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of point B are (-2,11).

A nursery has $55,000 of inventory in dogwood trees and red maple trees. The profit on a dogwood tree is 29% and the profit on a red maple tree is 18%. The profit for the entire stock is 20%. How much was invested in each type of tree?

Answers

Answer:

On dogwood $45,000 was invested

On red maple tree , $10,000 would be invested

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested on dogwood tree be d and the amount invested on red maple be r

Total is 55,000

Thus;

d + r = 55,000 ••••••(i)

Total profit is;

20/100 * 55,000 = 11,000

Profit on dogwood is;

29/100 * d = 0.29d

Profit on red maple is;

18/100 * r = 0.18r

Both equals 11,000

0.29d + 0.18r = 11,000 •••••••(ii)

From equation i, d = 55,000 - r

substitute into ii

0.29(55,000-r) + 0.18r = 11,000

15950- 0.29r + 0.18r = 11,000

4950 = 0.11r

r = 4950/0.11

r = 45,000

d = 55,000 - r

d = 55,000 - 45,000

d = 10,000

An insurance company has written 100 policies for $75,000, 500 policies for $25,000, and 1000 policies for $10,000 for people of age 20. If experience shows that the probability that a person will die at age 20 is 0.0015, how much can the company expect to pay out during the year the policies were written? The company can expect to pay out _____ $ over the year after the policies were written.

Answers

Answer:

The company can expect to pay out $45,000 over the year after the policies were written.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be determined as follows:

The probability that a person will die at age 20 = 0.0015

Revenue from 100 policies = 100 * $75,000 = $7,500,000

Revenue from 500 policies = 500 * $25,000 = $12,500,000

Revenue from 1000 policies = 1000 * $10,000 = $10,000,000

Total revenue from all policies = Revenue from 100 policies + Revenue from 500 policies + Revenue from 1000 policies = $7,500,000 + $12,500,000 + $10,000,000 = $30,000,000

Expected amount to pay out during the year the policies were written = Total revenue from all policies * The probability that a person will die at age 20 = $30,000,000 * 0.0015 = $45,000

Therefore, the company can expect to pay out $45,000 over the year after the policies were written.

[tex]T_{2} = 200[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Geometry Progression

[tex]T_1 = 500[/tex]

[tex]T_4 = 32[/tex]

Required

Calculate the second term

First, we need to write out the formula to calculate the nth term of a GP

[tex]T_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

For first term: Tn = 500 and n = 1

[tex]500 = ar^{1-1}[/tex]

[tex]500 = ar^{0}[/tex]

[tex]500 = a[/tex]

[tex]a = 500[/tex]

For fought term: Tn = 32 and n = 4

[tex]32 = ar^{4-1}[/tex]

[tex]32 = ar^3[/tex]

Substitute 500 for a

[tex]32 = 500 * r^3[/tex]

Make r^3 the subject

[tex]r^3 = \frac{32}{500}[/tex]

[tex]r^3 = 0.064[/tex]

Take cube roots

[tex]\sqrt[3]{r^3} = \sqrt[3]{0.064}[/tex]

[tex]r = \sqrt[3]{0.064}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.4[/tex]

Using:  [tex]T_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]n = 2[/tex]     [tex]r = 0.4[/tex]     and [tex]a = 500[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} = 500 * 0.4^{2-1}[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} = 500 * 0.4^1[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} = 500 * 0.4[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} = 200[/tex]

Hence, the second term is 200

The number of passengers in the bus double every minute. The bus was full of
passengers at 7.45am. When was it one quarter full?

Answers

Answer:

7:43 am.

Step-by-step explanation:

it was  1/2 full one minute ago then another 1/2 = 1/4 full 2 minutes ago.

Knowing how the bus fills, we want to find the time where the bus is one-quarter full.

The bus is one-quarter full at 7:43 am.

We know that at 7:45 am the bus is full. Let's say that the full bus has N people inside.

Each minute the population doubles, so if we go backwards, each minute the population is divided by 2.

One minute before, the bus must have half of the above population, meaning that at 7:44 am, the bus has N/2 people.

Another minuter before the people inside is halved again, then at 7:43 am we will have (N/2)/2 = N/4 people.

And if N is the people in a full bus, then N/4 represents the buss a quarter full.

Then we can answer the question as:

The bus is one-quarter full at 7:43 am.
