In a piggy bank, the number of nickles is 8 more than half the number of quarters. The value of the coins is $21.85. Determine the number of nickels.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of nickels is 47

Step-by-step explanation:

1 nickel is 5 cents while 1 quarter is 25 cents

let the number of nickels be n and the number of quarters be q

From the question;

the number of nickels n is 8 more than half the number of quarters (q/2)

n = q/2 + 8

(n-8) = q/2

q = 2(n-8) = 2n - 16 ••••(i)

let us convert $21.85 to cents

there are 100 cents in $1

Thus; $21.85 will be 21.85 * 100 = 2185 cents

1 nickel is 5 cents; so n nickels will be 5 * n = 5n cents

1 quarter is 25 cents; so q quarters will be 25 * q = 25q cents

The addition of both will give 2185 cents

Thus;

5n + 25q = 2185 ••••••(ii)

Substitute equation i into ii

5n + 25(2n-16) = 2185

5n + 50n - 400 = 2185

55n = 2185 + 400

55n = 2,585

n = 2,585/55

n = 47 nickels

A certain bank offers a car loan with a fixed annual interest rate. Justine applied for the loan and used the entire amount to buy a car worth $43,000. He had to pay the bank for five years for a total amount of $51,600. How much would be the yearly interest if Justine borrowed $50,000 instead? *

0 points

Answers

Answer: $10000

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Principal = $43000

Time = 5 years

Rate = Unknown

Simple Interest = $51,600 - $43000 = $8600

We need to calculate the rate of interest which will be:

Interest = PRT/100

8600 = (43000 × 5 × Rate) / 100

Cross multiply

8600 × 100 = 215000 × Rate

Rate = 860000 / 215000

Rate = 4%

Assuming Justine borrowed $50,000 instead, the yearly Interest will be:

= (50000 × 5 × 4%)

= 50000 × 5 × 0.04

= $10000

Mark invests £12000 in a savings account. the account pays 1.5% compound interest per year. work out the value of her investment after two years?

Answers

Answer:

FV= £12,362.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment (PV)= £12,000

Number of periods (n)= 2 years

Interest rate (i)= 1.5% = 0.015

To calculate the Future Value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

FV= 12,000*(1.015^2)

A water container in the shape of a cone has a height of 5 inches and a diameter of 3.5 inches.

water container ___.
A. The formula to calculate the container's volume, V, with the given measurements is
B. The container can hold approximately ___ cubic inches of water. Round your answer to the nearest hundreth.

Answers

Answer

A. The formula to calculate the container's volume, V, with the given measurements is ⅓ π(1.25²)5.

B. The container can hold approximately 8.177 cubic inches of water. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-Step Explanation

A. The formula to calculate any cone's volume is ⅓ πr²h. Replace the variables with the actual values of the cone. r stands for the cone base's radius, or half of the diameter. Because the diameter is 3.5, the radius is 1.25, or half of it. The h stands for the height of the cone. Now we can plug in the values. Our answer for this part is ⅓ π(1.25²)5.

B. Now to solve our equation. [tex]1.25^2[/tex] is equal to 1.5625. Now, multiply by the height. 1.5625 x 5 is equal to 7.8125. We now multiply by [tex]\pi[/tex]. We'll use 3.14 to shorten the answer a bit. Multiply 7.8125 by 3.14 and you'll get 24.53125. Last but not least, divide this by 3 (or multiply by [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]). [tex]\frac{24.53125}{3}[/tex] = 8.1770833333... We now must round this to the nearest hundredth. This makes our final answer 8.177 [tex]in^3[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

630

Answer:

789 to nearest whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 4 years its increased from 220 to 350.

350 = 220(e)^4k  where k is some constant.

e^4k = 350/220

4k = ln (350/220) = 0.4643

k = 0.1161

The equation  of growth is therefore

P = 220e^0.1161t)

So  in 2011 ( t = 11 years) the

Population = 220 * e^(11*0.1161)

= 789.

Answers

~Answer~

Substitute your numbers:

y = 5x

For the first one, y equals 5, so substitute 5 for y.

So, 5 = 5x.

What multiplied by 5 gives 5? The answer is 1.

So, the first one is 1.

Do the same for all the others.

So, 4 = 5x.

4 = 5(4/5)

As a decimal that equals 0.8.

For the last one, I can't tell if that is saying 2 or .2 so I'll do both.

for 2, you will do 2 = 5x and for .2, you will do .2 or 0.2 = 5x.

For 2, it would be 2/5 or 0.4.

For .2 or 0.2, it would be 0.04.

So,

x                                                             y

1                                                             5

4/5 or 0.8                                             4

0.4 if it is 2 and 0.04 if it is 0.2.        2

(looking back, I'm pretty sure it was just 2 and not .2)

I hope this is what u were looking for, if not I'm so sorry for a useless answer.  I wasn't completely sure whether I was doing it right since I haven't done these types of math problems in some time.
