Steve has 54 stamps in his collection of 13 cent, 29 cent, and 45 cent stamps, totaling a value of $15.98. If the number of 13 cent stamps is doubled, the new total value of his stamp collection would be $17.80. Find the number of each type of stamp in his collection.
Answer:
a) The number of 13 cent = 14
b) The number of 29 cent = 24
c) The number of 45 cent = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told he has 54 stamps in total.
These stamps are;13 cent, 29 cent, and 45 cent stamps.
Let's
Number of 13 cent = a
Number of 29 cent = b
Number of 45 cent = c
Hence,
a + b + c = 54........... Equation 1
The total value of the 3 stamps are $15.98.
1 cent = $0.01
We have
0.13a + 0.29b + 0.45c= $15.98 ......... Equation 2
We know from the question that:
13 cent stamps is doubled, the new total value of his stamp collection would be $17.80.
Therefore
2(0.13a) + 0.29b + 0.45c = 17.8
0.26a + 0.29b + 0.45c = 17.8 ......... Equation 3
Combining Equation 2 and 3 together
0.13a + 0.29b + 0.45c= 15.98 ......... Equation 2
0.26a + 0.29b + 0.45c = 17.8 ......... Equation 3
We eliminate b and c by Subtracting Equation 3 from 3
0.13a = 1.82
a = 1.82/0.13
a = 14
a + b + c = 54........... Equation 1
Since a = 14
14 + b + c = 54
b + c = 54 - 14
b + c = 40
c = 40 - b
Substitute 40 - b for c and 14 for a is Equation 2
0.13a + 0.29b + 0.45c= 15.98 ......... Equation 2
0.13(14 ) + 0.29b + 0.45(40 - b) = 15.98
= 1.82 + 0.29b + 18 - 0.45b = 15.98
Collect like terms
1.82 + 18 - 15.98 = 0.45b - 0.29b
3.84 = 0.16b
b = 3.84/0.16
b = 24
Hence: Solving for c
a + b + c = 54........... Equation 1
14 + 24 + c = 54
38 + c = 54
c = 54 - 38
c = 16
Therefore,
The number of 13 cent = 14
The number of 29 cent = 24
The number of 45 cent = 16
Find the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of y=6x-5.
Answer:
The slope is 6 and the y intercept is -5
Step-by-step explanation:
y=6x-5
The equation is in slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The slope is 6 and the y intercept is -5
Answer:
[tex]slope=6\\\\y-intercept=-5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is written in slope-intercept form:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
where:
m is the slope (the change in the y values over the change in the x values)b is the y-intercept (where the x value is 0 and the line crosses over the y-axis)x and y are corresponding coordinate points that lie on the line (x,y)Find the values:
[tex]y=(slope)x+(y-intercept)\\\\y=6x-5[/tex]
6 is in the slope place, so the slope is 6.
5 is in the y-intercept place. Note how this number has a negative sign when the original equation says "+b". This means that the y-intercept is -5.

You have 37 coins that are nickels, dimes, and pennies. The total value of the coins is $1.55. There are twice as many pennies as dimes. Find the number of each type of coin in the bank.
Answer: Let n be the number of nickel
s, d be the number of dimes, and p be the number of pennies.
Answer:
n = number of nickels = 7
d = number of dimes = 10
p = number of pennies = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
n = number of nickels
d = number of dimes
p = number of pennies.
n + d + p = 37
0.05n + 0.10d + 0.01p = 1.55
p = 2d
Substitute p = 2d into the equation
n + d + 2d = 37
0.05n + 0.10d + 0.01(2d) = 1.55
n + 3d = 37
0.05n + 0.10d + 0.02d = 1.55
n + 3d = 37 (1)
0.05n + 0.12d = 1.55 (2)
Multiply (1) by 0.05
0.05n + 0.15d = 1.85
0.05n + 0.12p = 1.55
Subtract
0.15d - 0.12d = 1.85 - 1.55
0.03d = 0.3
d = 0.3/0.03
= 10
d = 10
p = 2d
= 2(10)
p = 20
n + d + p = 37
n + 10 + 20 = 37
n + 30 = 37
n = 37 - 30
n = 7
n = number of nickels = 7
d = number of dimes = 10
p = number of pennies = 20
Ronald measured a house and its lot and made a scale drawing. The front patio, which is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millimeters wide in the drawing. What scale did Ronald use?
Answer:
2 metre= 1millimetre
Step-by-step explanation:
From the measurement of the house The front patio, is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millimeters wide in the drawing
Real life= 14 meters
Drawing= 7 millimeters,
The scale he used is 2 metre= 1millimetre
Which means he magnify the drawing by scale of 2 metre to get the real life structure.
✓Let us clarify it
14 meters = 7 millimeters
2 metre= x millimeter
If we cross multiply
7 millimeters× 2 metre= 14 metre × X millimeters
Make X subject of the formula we have
X= 1millimetres

Answer:
C. 48 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The two vertical sides add up to be (8*2) m = 16m.
The two horizontal sides can be added up to (14*2) m = 28m.
(The top horizontal side can be found by pushing the line in the middle up to the level of the other two portions of the same side.)
Finally, add the leftover two sides (2*2) m = 4m.
16+28+4 = 48.

Dave is also 9 years younger than twice
his brother's Ige. How old is each?
Answer:
Dave is 27. His brother is 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
Dave is 9 years older than his brother, so if his brother is 18, he is 27. If you doubled the brother's age (18) you would get 36. Then you subtract 36 by 9 and get 27. <3

Here is a map of an island with cities A, B and C
not tryna be rude but theres no map
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.
b) Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.
We have,
a)
The three figures bearing B from A are:
1 cm = 200 km
This means,
AB = 2.4 cm
So,
2.4 x 200 = 480 km
And,
BC has two parts:
1.2 cm and 1.5 cm
1.2 cm x 200 km = 240 km
1.5 x 200 km = 300 km
The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.
Now,
Jafar distance.
= AB
= 480 km
Kenzi distance.
= BC
= 240 km + 300 km
= 540 km
The difference between the distance driven.
= 540 km - 480 km
= 60 km
This means,
Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.
Thus,
The three figures are 480 km, 240 km, and 300 km.
Kenzi has driven 60 km further than Jafar.

ayúdenme porfavor
Answer: a) 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Buscando en google, encuentro que la expresión es:
C(x) = 9*x^2 - 80*x - 100
Queremos encontrar el valor de x (positivo), tal que esa expresión sea igual a cero, entonces tenemos que resolver:
9*x^2 - 80*x - 100 = 0.
Para ello podemos recordar la ecuación de Bhaskara, que para una ecuación de la forma:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
Las soluciones son:
[tex]x = \frac{-b +-\sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2a}[/tex]
en este caso, tenemos:
a = 9
b = -80
c = -100
Entoces, las soluciones van a ser:
[tex]x = \frac{-(-80) +- \sqrt{(-80)^2 - 4*9*(-100)} }{2*9} = \frac{80 +- 100}{18}[/tex]
Entonces las dos soluciones son:
x = (80 - 100)/18 = -20/18 = -10/9
Esta solución la descartamos, pues es negativa. La otra solución es:
x = (80 + 100)/18 = 180/18 = 10
La opción correcta es a: 10

If you study an extra 10 hours a week for a year (52 weeks) and you earn a four-year scholarship valued at $50,000, what is your hourly return on your investment in study time?
Answer:
$96.15Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
total number of weeks =52 weeks
study time per week is = 10 hours
total study time for the year = 52*10
=520 hours per year.
Step two:
given that the value of the scholarship for one year is $50,000.
we want to find the amount that an hour of study brings
so we have to divide the total scholarship by the amount of study time
50000/520
=$96.15
your hourly return on your investment in study time is $96.15

Not certain if this question is complete
Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
We perform the operations given, using the rules of subtraction and addition on the number line:
Two negative signs adds up to a negative result, one negative number and positive number may add up to a negative or positive value depending on which is bigger :
2-26= -24( the positive value 2 reduces negative value by 2 and we are left with -24)
-48-16= -64( two negative values add up to a negative value)
07-6= 1( seven is bigger than 6 hence positive result)
We use the above method to solve the given expressions
+76-200-73= -124-73=-192
-48-16=-64
+7-6-200-73=-199-73=-272

An element with mass 570 grams decays by 18% per minute. How much of the element is remaining after 13 minutes, to the nearest 10th of a gram?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
43.2 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential equation for the decay can be written as ...
amount remaining = (initial amount)(1 -decay rate)^t
= 570(1 -0.18)^t
We want to find the amount remaining after 13 minutes. Evaluating this equation for t=13, we have ...
amount remaining = 570(0.82^13) ≈ 43.2 . . . grams
what is the slope of the line, (-6, -8) and (2, 8)?
Answer:
