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.

Answers

Answer:

B is the answer.

x = 1

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In B, Multiply the second equation by 2

8y - 2x = 14                

Now add the first and the equation above.

8y - 2x = 14

3y +2X = 8

11y = 22        

Divide by 11

11y/11 = 22/11

y = 2

Use the given equation #2

4y - x = 7

4*2 - x = 7

-x = 7 - 8

-x = - 1               Multiply by - 1

-1*x = -1*-1

x = 1

In a kite ABCD, AB=CB , AD = CD, <B= 115 degree, <D=30 degree. Find <A = ?​

Answers

Answer:

The measure of ∠A = 107.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

ABCD is a kite such that

AB = BC and AD = DC

Join A and C

Since AB = BC

→ ∠BAC = ∠BCA

Since , the angles opposite to equal sides are equal.

Let ∠BAC = ∠BCA = x°

and

Since AD = DC

→ ∠CAD = ∠ACD

Since , the angles opposite to equal sides are equal.

Let ∠CAD = ∠ACD = y°

Now

In ∆ ADC ,

∠ADC + ∠CAD + ∠ACD = 180°

Since , the sum of the all angles in a triangle is 180°

⇛ 30° + y°+ y° = 180°

⇛ 30°+2y° = 180°

⇛ 2y° = 180°-30°

⇛ 2y° = 150°

⇛ y° = 150°/2

⇛ y° = 75°

Therefore, ∠CAD = ∠ACD = 75°

and

In ∆ ABC,

∠ ABC + ∠BAC + ∠BCA = 180°

Since , the sum of the all angles in a triangle is 180°

⇛ 115° + x° + x° = 180°

⇛ 115°+2x° = 180°

⇛ 2x° = 180°-115°

⇛ 2x° = 65°

⇛ x° = 65°/2

⇛ x° = 32.5°

Therefore, ∠BAC = ∠BCA = 32.5°

Now, ∠ A = ∠BAC + ∠CAD

⇛ ∠A = 32.5° + 75°

⇛ ∠A = 107.5°

Therefore, ∠A = 107.5°

Answer:-

) The measure of ∠ADC = 145°) The measure of ∠A = 107.5°

∠L=23°

Step-by-step explanation:

   6x-5+x+9=9x-24

           7x+4=9x-24

          7x-9x=-24-4

              -2x=-28

               2x=28

                 x=28÷2

                   =14

Hence, ∠L = (x+9)°

                  = (14+9)°
