Answer: D. n + q = 20

5n + 25q = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of nickels that you have.

Let q represent the number of quarters that you have.

Suppose you have 20 coins. It means that

n + q = 20

The total value of the coins is $3. The value of a quarter is $0.25 and the value if a nickel is $0.05. Therefore, the equation would be

0.05n + 0.25q = 3

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 100, it becomes

5n + 25q = 300

The correct option is

D. n + q = 20

5n + 25q = 300

When plucked, the high E string on a guitar has a frequency of 330 cycles per second. What sine function represents this note wh
Ber [7]

Let's analyse the function

y = f(x) = A\sin(\omega x)

The amplitude is A, so we want A=1.5

Now, we start at x=0, and we have 1.5\sin(0)=0

After one second, i.e. x=1, we want this sine function to make 330 cycles, i.e. the argument must be 330\cdot 2\pi

So, we have

f(1)=1.5\sin(\omega) = 1.5\sin(660\pi)

so, the function is

f(x) = 1.5\sin(660\pi x)

Helena needs 3.5 cups of flour per loaf of bread and 2.5 cups of flour per batch of muffins. She also needs 0.75 cup of sugar pe
Arlecino [84]
From the given data, we can generate two equations with two unknowns. 

We let x = number of loaves of bread
            y = number of batches of muffins

For the equation of the flour requirement:
17 = 3.5x + 2.5y

<span>For the equation of the sugar requirement:
</span>4.5 = 0.75x + 0.75y

We evaluate the solutions by manipulating one of the equations into terms of the other. We use the first equation.We write x in terms of y.

x = (4.5/0.75) - y

Substitute the third equation to the second equation.

17 = (3.5((4.5/0.75)-y)) + 2.5y

Evaluating y and x, we have,

y = 4 and x = 2

Thus, from the amounts she has in hand, she can make 4 loaves of bread and 2 batches of muffins.

Nostrana [21]
Let X be the original price. 
Do a 40% increase we get the price: X+0.4X=1.4X
Doing a 25% off we get the new price:
(1.4X)-0.25(1.4X)=1.05X 
                            =X+0.05X.
The new prices are 5% increase from the original price.
