A trader has a mixture of 5c and 10c coins. He has 50 coins in all, with a total value of $4.20. How many of each coin does he have?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16 5c coins

34 10c coins

Step-by-step explanation:

(I prefer to use whole numbers)

5x + 10y = 420

x+y=50

multiply the bottom problem by -5

5x +10y =420

-5x -5y = -250

combine the problems

5y = 170

divide by 5

y = 34

that means x = 16

34 10c coins

16 5c coins

-- Gage Millar, Algebra 1/2 tutor

Answer 2

The number of 5 cent coins are 16 and the number of 10 cent coins are 34.

What is a linear system of equations?

A system of linear equations consists of two or more equations made up of two or more variables such that all equations in the system are considered simultaneously. The solution to a system of linear equations in two variables is any ordered pair that satisfies each equation independently.

Given that, a trader has a mixture of 5 c and 10 c coins.

Let the the number of 5 c coins be x and the number of 10 c coins be y.

He has 50 coins in all, with a total value of $4.20.

So, x+y=50 ---------(I)

5x+10y=420 ---------(II)

Multiply equation (I) by 5, we get

5x+5y=250 ---------(III)

Subtract equation (III) from (II), that is

5x+10y-(5x+5y)=420-250

⇒ 5y=170

⇒ y=34

Substitute y=34 in equation (I), we get

x=16

Therefore, the number of 5 cent coins are 16 and the number of 10 cent coins are 34.

5 razor blades cost 35p find the cost of 15 razor blades​

Answers

Answer:

The cost would be 105p

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 razor blades equals 35 p 5x3=15 so 35x3=105

Answer:

the ansawer would be 105

Step-by-step explanation:

You could figure this out by either multiplying 35 by 3 since 35 is 5 blades, and 5 multiplied by 3 is 15, you can also multiply 35 by 3.

You can also use ratios to figure it out. You'd have to set it up like this; 5 to 35 then you'd have to divide both 5 and 35 by 5. You'd get 1 to 7. Then, finally multiply the ratio by 15, getting 15 to 105.

Sandra and Peter together weigh 275 pounds. Sandra and
Martin together weigh 245 pounds. All three together
weigh 410 pounds. What is Sandra's weight alone?

Answers

Answer:

110 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of Sandra, Peter and Martin be S, P and M pounds respectively.

S +P= 275 -----(1)

S +M= 245 -----(2)

S +P +M= 410 -----(3)

(3) -(1):

S +P +M -(S +P)= 410 -275

S +P +M -S -P= 135

M= 135

Substitute M= 135 into (2):

S +135= 245

S= 245 -135

S= 110

Thus, Sarah weighs 110 pounds.

what do you guys think the answer is?

Answers

Answer: Check out the diagram below

Explanation:

Because point A is the center of dilation, it will stay fixed. It never moves. Everything else around it will move. Specifically, every point but A will move inward closer to A.

To get from A to B, we move 9 spaces. The scale factor 1/2 means we'll move half that amount and 9/2 = 4.5 spaces will be between A' and B'. Relabel A' as point E, and change the name of B' to F.

To go from A to D, we do the following steps

move to the right 9 spacesmove up 6 spaces

Cut each of those values in half to get 9/2 = 4.5 and 6/2 = 3. The results 4.5 and 3 are the horizontal and vertical distances we must travel when going from A' to D'. We'll relabel point D' as point H.

To go from D to C, we move 3 spaces. This cuts in half (again because of the scale factor) to get 3/2 = 1.5 spaces which is the distance from D' to C', aka from H to G.

Everything is marked in the diagram below.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

=> 3x (2x - 1) -2 (2x - 1) = 0

=> (2x - 1) (3x - 2) = 0

2x - 1 = 0

Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] , x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

6x² = 7x - 2 ( subtract 7x - 2 from both sides )

6x² - 7x + 2 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 6 × 2 = 12 and sum = - 7

The factors are - 3 and - 4

Use these factors to split the x- term

6x² - 3x - 4x + 2 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3x(2x - 1) - 2(2x - 1) = 0 ← factor out (2x - 1) from each term

(2x - 1)(3x - 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

3x - 2 = 0 ⇒ 3x = 2 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 1 ⇒ x = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Tayla purchased a large box of comic books for $300. She gave 15 of the comic books to her brother and then sold the rest on an Internet website for $330, making a profit of $1.50 on each one. How many comic books were in the box

Answers

Answer:

Number of comic books is 75.

Original price of each comic book is 4$.

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 75 comics in the box originally.

What is an equation?

An equation is the statement of equality between two expressions consisting of variables and/or numbers.

Given that, Tayla purchased a large box of comic books for $300. She gave 15 of the comic books to her brother and then sold the rest on an internet website for $330, making a profit of $1.50 on each one.

Let x be the number of comics originally

(x - 15) is the number of comics sold.

Original price of each comic = 300/x

Price of comics which she gave to brother = 15*300/x

Original price of all the books that has been sold  = 300 - 15*300/x

Tayla's profit = 330 - (300 - 15*300/x) = 30 + 15*300/x

Number of comics sold = (30 + 15*300/x)/1.5

Equation will be,

(30 + 15*300/x)/1.5 = x - 15

20 + 3000/x = x - 15

(x² - 15x - 3000)/x = 20

x² - 35x - 3000 = 0

On factorizing the quadratic equation, we get,

x = 75 or -40 (Neglecting -40, because number of books can't be negative)

Hence, there were 75 comic books in the box originally.

What is the equation of a line (in standard form) that passes through point A(1,-4) and has a slope of 3/4?

Answers

Answer:

3x-4y=19

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to write the equation of the line in standard form that passes through the point (1, -4) and has the slope of 3/4

Standard form is written as ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients, but a and b cannot be 0, and a cannot be negative

First, in order to find ax+by=c, we'll need to get slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Since we already know the slope (3/4), we can substitute it into the formula for y=mx+b.

y=3/4x+b

Now we need to solve for b

Since the equation passes through the point (1, -4), we can use it to solve for b

Substitute 1 as x and -4 as y.

-4=3/4(1)+b

Multiply

-4=3/4+b

Subtract 3/4 from both sides

-19/4=b

Now substitute -19/4 as b into the equation

y=3/4x-19/4

Now we have the equation in slope-intercept form, but remember, we want it in standard form

Since x and y are on the same side in standard form, subtract 3/4x from both sides

-3/4x+y=-19/4

Remember that a cannot be negative, and the coefficients are integers (they cannot be fractions)

So in order to clear the fractions and change the sign of the equation, multiply both sides by -4

-4(-3/4x+y)=-4(-19/4)

Multiply

3x-4y=19
