Answer:
10 quarters = $2.50
10 nickels = $0.50
that leaves $0.20 for other coins (dimes / pennies)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, suppose she has only quarters and nickels and no other coins. Then if C is the identical number of coins of each type, then 5C + 25C = 320, so 30C = 320 and 3C = 32, but there is no integer solution to this. So she must have at least one other type of coin.
Assume she has only quarters, nickels, and dimes. Then if D is the number of dimes, 5C + 25C + 10D = 320, which means 30C + 10D = 320, or 3C + D = 32. The smallest D can be is 2, leaving 3C = 30 and thus C = 10. So in this scenario she would have 10 quarters, 10 nickels, and two dimes to make $2.50 + $0.50 + $0.20 = $3.20.
This has to be the highest number, because if she had 11 quarters and 11 nickels, that alone would add up to 11(0.25) + 11(0.05) = $3.30, which would already be too much.
For this case we have that by definition, the area of a triangle is given by:
Where:
b: It is the base of the triangle
h: It is the height of the triangle
According to the statement data we have:
Substituting we have:
We divide between 2 on both sides:
We factor by looking for two numbers that, when multiplied, are obtained -88 and when added together, +3 is obtained.
These numbers are +11 and -8.
We have two roots:
We choose the positive value.
Thus, the base of the triangle is:
Answer:
The base of the triangle is 22 units.
I would go with A but I am not 100% sure so you may want to check however you can.
