Answer:

14 nickels

7 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find out how many dimes there has to be to get $1.40

1 dime= .10

1.40/.10=14 dimes

14/2=7

so there are 7 dimes

since a nickel is half the amount of a dime there will be twice as many to make up the other half which is $0.70

.70/.05=14

there are 14 nickels

proof:

$0.10(7)+$0.05(14)= $1.40

hope this helps!

You are given rectangle ABCD on the grid shown and are told that the figure is to be dilated from the origin, but you are not to
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The new coordinates of point D(-4, -4) after the dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 will be: D'(-2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangle ABCD on the grid shown is attached below.

From the grid, it is clear that the coordinates of point D are (-4, -4)

i.e. D(-4, -4)

As we are told that the figure is to be dilated from the origin.

A dilation tends to stretch or shrink the original figure, depending upon scale factor.

  • If scale factor > 1, then the image gets enlarged
  • If the scale factor < 1, the image gets reduction

When we dilate a figure from the origin by any scale factor, the new coordinates of the image can be obtained by multiplying the scale factor with the coordinates of the original object/figure.

As the the coordinates of point D are (-4, -4). If we dilate the figure by a scale factor of 1/2, the new new coordinates of point D would be:

P(x, y)       →   P'(1/2x, 1/2y)

D(-4, -4)    →   D'(-4/2, -4/2) or D'(-2, -2)

Therefore, the new coordinates of point D(-4, -4) after the dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 will be: D'(-2, -2)

If cos(t) = 2/7 and t is in the 4th quadrant, find sin(t).
Yuliya22 [10]
We can use the Pythagorean Trigonometric Identity which says:
sin^2(t)+cos^2(t)=1

Since we need to find sin(t), we have to solve for it:
sin(t)= \sqrt{1-cos^2(t)}

Let's plug in the given cos(t) value:
sin(t) = \sqrt{1-cos^2( \frac{2}{7})}

And solve sin(t):
sin(t) = \sqrt{1- \frac{4}{49} } = \frac{x}{y} \sqrt{ \frac{49}{49}- \frac{4}{49} }

Simplify further:
sin(t) = \sqrt{ \frac{45}{49} } = \frac{ \sqrt{45} }{7} = \frac{ \sqrt{9*5} }{7}

And it all simplifies down to:
sin(t) = \frac{3 \sqrt{5} }{7}

Since it's in the 4th quadrant, the sin(t) value is going to be negative. So, your final answer is: 
sin(t) = - \frac{ 3\sqrt{5} }{7}

Hope this helps!

Emma's square patio below has been area=31 sq ft. She decides to decrease one dimension by 1 foot and decreases the other dimens
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

4.57ft  by 1.57 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Emma's square patio has been area=31 sq.ft

One dimension decrease by 1 foot and other dimension decrease by 4 feet.

We have to find the new dimensions of Emma's patio.

Let x be the side of Emma's square patio

We know that

Area of square=x^2

x^2=31

x=\sqrt{31}=5.57 ft

One dimension=5.57-1=4.57 ft

other dimension=5.57-4=1.57 ft

Hence, the new dimension of Emma's patio is given by

4.57ft  by 1.57 ft
