Answer:

There are 10 different combinations

The list of different combinations is:

(10p, 1p), (10p, 50p), (10p, 2p), (10p, 20p), (1p, 50p), (1p, 2p),

(1p, 20p), (50p, 2p), (50p, 20p), (2p, 20p)

Explanation:

The possible combinations are:

1. Assuming the first coin is 10p:

(10p, 1p)
(10p, 50p)
(10p, 2p)
(10p, 20p)

2. Asuming the first coin is 1p

Do not count (1p, 10p) as it is the same combination as (10p, 1p)

(1p, 50p)
(1p, 2p)
(1p, 20p)

3. Assuming the first coin is 50p:

Do not count (50p, 10p) nor (50p, 1p) as they are the same combinations (10p, 50p) and (1p, 50p) counted earlier:

(50p, 2p)
(50p, 20p)

4. Assuming the first coin is 2p:

The only new combination is:

(2p, 20p)

5. All the combinations with 20p have already been listed.

Therefore:

There are 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 10 different combinations

The list of different combinations is:

(10p, 1p), (10p, 50p), (10p, 2p), (10p, 20p), (1p, 50p), (1p, 2p),

(1p, 20p), (50p, 2p), (50p, 20p), (2p, 20p)

What is the value of k such that x-5 is a factor of x3 – x2 + kx - 30?

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

k = - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

given that (x - 5) is a factor of the polynomial then x = 5 is a root and

x³ - x² + kx - 30 = 0 for x = 5, that is

5³ - 5² + 5k - 30 = 0

125 - 25 + 5k - 30 = 0

70 + 5k = 0 ( subtract 70 from both sides )

5k = - 70 ( divide both sides by 5 )

k = - 14

Two friends decide to go on a four hour ride on off road vehicles through mountainous terrain the graph represents their elevati

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

Extrema: relative minimum (1.25,-3.25), relative maximums (3.25,10) and (0,0)

Zeros: (0,0), (2,0), and (4,0)

End behavior: As x approaches infinity, the function approaches negative infinity. As x approaches negative infinity, the function approaches negative infinity.

Intervals of increase and decrease: increasing on (-∞, 0) and (1.25, 3.25), decreasing on (0, 1.25) and (3.25, ∞)

Positive and negative intervals: positive on (2, 4), negative on (-∞, 0), (0, 2), and (4, ∞)

Describe a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate makes sense

Drupady [299]

If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah

Compare the values of the 2s and 5s in 55,220

bagirrra123 [75]

The five digit number, 55,220 contains to 5's and two 2's. The 5's are in the ten thousand and one thousand columns. This means that one five represents 50,000 and the second represents 5, 000. The two's are in the hundreds and tens columns meaning one 2 represents 200 and the other 2 represents 20. In a direct comparison of these numbers the 5's equal 55,000 and the 2's equal 220.
