Peter has only quarters and dimes in his coin collection. If he has three times as many quarters as dimes, which is an expression for the number of quarters he has in terms of the number of dimes?

Answers

Answer 1

The expression for the number of quarters Peter has in terms of the number of dimes is [tex]\( \frac{3}{4}d \)[/tex].

Let's denote the number of dimes Peter has as [tex]\( d \)[/tex]. According to the problem, Peter has three times as many quarters as dimes. Therefore, if we let [tex]\( q \)[/tex] represent the number of quarters, we can write the relationship between the number of quarters and dimes as:

[tex]\[ q = 3d \][/tex]

However, the question asks for an expression that gives the number of quarters in terms of the number of dimes, but using the same variable [tex]\( d \)[/tex]  to represent the total value of the dimes in dollars. Since each dime is worth $0.10, the total value of the dimes in dollars is:

[tex]\[ \text{Total value of dimes} = 0.10d \][/tex]

To find the number of quarters in terms of the total value of the dimes in dollars, we need to divide the total value of the dimes by the value of one quarter, which is $0.25, and then multiply by 3 because there are three times as many quarters as dimes:

[tex]\[ q = \frac{0.10d}{0.25} \times 3 \][/tex]

Simplifying the fraction [tex]\( \frac{0.10}{0.25} \)[/tex] gives us [tex]\( \frac{1}{2.5} \)[/tex], which simplifies further to [tex]\( \frac{2}{5} \)[/tex]. Therefore:

[tex]\[ q = \frac{2}{5}d \times 3 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{5} \times 2d \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{5} \times 2 \times \frac{d}{1} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{2d}{1} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{5} \times d \times 2 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{5} \times d \times \frac{2}{1} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{2d}{1} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3 \times 2d}{5} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{6d}{5} \][/tex]

However, we must remember that the original relationship was [tex]\( q = 3d \)[/tex], not . This means we made a mistake in our calculation. Let's correct it:

[tex]\[ q = 3d \][/tex]

Since each quarter is worth $0.25, the total value of the quarters in dollars is:

[tex]\[ \text{Total value of quarters} = 0.25q \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Total value of quarters} = 0.25 \times 3d \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Total value of quarters} = 0.75d \][/tex]

Now, to express the number of quarters [tex]\( q \)[/tex] in terms of the total value of the dimes in dollars using the same variable [tex]\( d \)[/tex], we need to adjust our equation to account for the value difference between dimes and quarters. Since the value of the dimes is given in dollars as [tex]\( d \)[/tex], and each quarter is worth $0.25, we can express the number of quarters as:

[tex]\[ q = \frac{d}{0.25} \times 3 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{d}{\frac{1}{4}} \times 3 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = d \times 4 \times 3 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = 4d \times 3 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = 12d \][/tex]

But this is not the expression we are looking for, as it gives us the number of quarters in terms of the total value of the dimes in dollars, not in terms of the number of dimes. We need to divide by 10 to convert the total value of the dimes in dollars back to the number of dimes:

[tex]\[ q = \frac{12d}{10} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = \frac{3}{4}d \times 4 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ q = 3d \][/tex]

This is the correct expression, as it gives us the number of quarters in terms of the number of dimes, with [tex]\( d \)[/tex] representing the number of dimes, not their value in dollars.

Now change the improper fraction into a mixed fraction and add the whole number to the current whole number.
5/3 = 1 2/3
21 + 1 2/3 = 22 2/3

The answer is 
D. 22 2/3
Final answer:

Adding together the whole number parts gives us 21. When we add the fractions, we get 25/15, which simplifies to 1 10/15. Adding this to our whole number sum gives us 22 10/15, or 22 2/3.

Explanation:

To find the sum of these mixed numbers, you'll want to first add the whole number parts, and then add the fractions. In this case, adding together the whole numbers 7, 5, and 9 gives us 21.

The fractions 2/15, 2/3, and 13/15 can be added together by finding a common denominator. The common denominator for 15 and 3 is 15, therefore 2/3 becomes 10/15 when it is converted.

When we add 2/15, 10/15, and 13/15, we get 25/15, which can be reduced to 1 10/15.

When we add this to our whole number sum, we get 22 10/15,

which simplifies to 22 2/3.

An automotive repair center charges $45 for any part of the first hour of labor, and $25 for any part of each additional hour. Which of the following is a correct cost?
A. C(t) = 145 for 5 < x ≤ 6
B. C(t) = 145 for 6 < x ≤ 7
C. C(t) = 170 for 5 < x ≤ 6
D. C(t) = 170 for 6 < x ≤ 7

Answers

The total cost is given by the equation:
C(t) = 45 + 25(h-1) where h is the number of hours worked.

We can check for each option in turn:

Option A:

Inequality 5 < x ≤ 6 means the hour is between 5 hours (not inclusive) to 6 hours (inclusive)
Let's take the number of hours = 5
C(5) = 45 + (5-1)×25 = 145
Let's take the number of hours = 6
Then substitute into C(6) = 45 + (6-1)×25 = 170
We can't take 145 because the value '5' was not inclusive.


Option B:
The inequality is 6 < x ≤ 7
We take number of hours = 6
C(6) = 25(6-1) + 45 = 170
We take number of hours = 7
Then C(7) = 25(7-1) + 45 = 195

Option C:
The inequality is 5 < x ≤ 6
Take the number of hours = 5
C(5) = 25(5-1) + 45 = 145
Take the number of hours = 6
C(6) = 25(6-1) + 45 = 170
We can't take the value 145 as '5' was not inclusive in the range, but we can take 170

Option D:
6 < x ≤ 7
25(6-1) + 45 < C(t) ≤ 25(7-1) + 45
170 < C(t) ≤ 195

Find the value of y log4 64=y

Answers

Answer:

y=log4 64=2.6665.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that logarithmic expression

y=log 464

By using logarithmic rules

Substitute the decimal point after end digit and then put zero after decimal point

We can write as

y=log464.0

To put the decimal point after one digit from left then we move two steps.Therefore ,we write 2 on left side of the decimal point in final result

Now, we see the value of 46 at 4 from log table then we get the value of 46 at 4 is 6665

Therefore , y=log464=2.6665

Hence, the value of y=2.6665

The value of y to the equation log₄(64) = y is y = 3.

The given logarithmic equation is :

y = log₄(64)

This can be written in exponential form as :

4^(y) = 64

It is known that :

4 × 4 × 4 = 64

So,

4³ = 64

Hence the value of y = 3.

find a linear function h such that h(3)=7 and h(-1)= 14. what is h (1/2)?

Answers

As it is stated to be a linear function and you are given two points, you can make an equation of a line, in the form y = mx + b. 

To find the slope (m), the equation is (y2-y1) / (x2-x1). In this case, x1 = 3, y1 = 7, x2 = -1, and y2 = 14. 

So, we plug in these values into the equation to get (14 - 7)/(-1 - 3) = 7/-4 = -1.75. m = -1.75


Now to find the b value in the equation y = mx + b, we use the values we know and plug them into the equation. So,

7 = -1.75(3) + b
7 = -5.25 + b 
b = 12.25

Check if this works with the other equation: 

14 = -1.75(-1) + 12.25
= 1.75 + 12.25 = 14, checks out.

So, we know the function h is h(x) = -1.75 (x) + 12.25
We are asked to solve h(1/2), so simply plug it in for x. (I used 0.5 instead of 1/2 to make it simpler).

Doing this, we get
-1.75(0.5) + 12.25 = 11.375.

So, h (1/2) = 11.375

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (−8, −2) and has a slope of m=5

Answers

Final answer:

To write the equation in point-slope form, we can use the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.

Explanation:

To write an equation in point-slope form, we can use the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1), where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope. In this case, the given point is (-8, -2) and the slope is 5. Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:

y - (-2) = 5(x - (-8))

Simplifying the equation, we get:

y + 2 = 5(x + 8)

Therefore, the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (-8, -2) with a slope of 5 is y + 2 = 5(x + 8).

Final answer:

The quadratic formula can be used to find the solutions of a quadratic equation. In this case, the equation is 2x² - 3x - 5 = 0. Using the quadratic formula, the two solutions are x = 2 and x = -1.

Explanation:

To find the solutions to the equation 2x² - 3x - 5 = 0, we can use the quadratic formula. The formula states that the solutions of any quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 can be calculated using the formula:

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

In this case, a = 2, b = -3, and c = -5. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

x = (-(-3) ± √((-3)² - 4(2)(-5))) / (2(2))

Simplifying further, we have:

x = (3 ± √(9 + 40)) / 4

x = (3 ± √49) / 4

x = (3 ± 7) / 4

Therefore, the two solutions to the equation 2x² - 3x - 5 = 0 are x = (3 + 7) / 4 = 2 and x = (3 - 7) / 4 = -1.

Explanation:

A line has a negative slope when it goes down from left to right. To find two points with negative slopes, we can calculate the slopes of the lines passing through the point (2, 8) and each of the given points.

Using the slope formula, slope = ∆y / ∆x, we can calculate the slopes:

-2, -6: slope = (-6 - 8) / (-2 - 2) = -14 / -4 = 3.5

1, -3: slope = (-3 - 8) / (1 - 2) = -11 / -1 = 11

Therefore, the pairs of points with negative slopes are (-2, -6) and (1, -3).
