Answer: The Answer is 62 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 76 coins in the jar in total,All you do is add all of the number of each coin there is except nickels and add it together. Then you take that amount away from the total number of coins to find out how many nickels are inside the jar.

Zöe schedules advertising for a radio station. She must fill 12 minutes each hour with 30 second ads and 60 second ads. Zöe sold
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
I cannot see Zoe's work to explain the error, but the correct method of solving is listed:

x is the number of 30-second ads
y is the number of 60-second ads

x+y=12(60)=720 would be the first equation; this is because while the ads together make 12 minutes, the ad times are in seconds.  This means we must multiply 12 by 60.

y=2x is the second equation

Our system is then
x+y=720
y=2x

We will use substitution to solve this.  Plug 2x in place of y in the first equation:
x+2x = 720

Combine like terms:
3x = 720

Divide both sides by 3:
3x/3 = 720/3
x = 240

Substitute this value in for x in the second equation:
y=2(240)
y=480

Raya buys a van for £8500 plus VAT at 20%
asambeis [7]

They buy the van for £8,500 + VAT 20%:

Total paid for the van = £8,500 x 1.20 = £10,200

They make 12 payments of £531.25 for a total of:

12 x £531.25 = £6,375

To find the amount of deposit, subtract the total payments from total cost:

£10,200 - £6,375 = £3,825

The ratio of deposit to the payments is: 3825 : 6375

Reduce the answer by dividing both numbers by 75:

3825/75 = 51

6375 / 75 = 85

The ratio becomes: 51/85

Choose the function whose graph is given by:
loris [4]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

y=3sec\left(\frac{1}{2}x\right)

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The graphs of sec(x) can be obtained from  the graph of the cosine function using the reciprocal identity, so:

sec(x)=\frac{1}{cos(x)}

But in this problem, the graph stands for the function:

y=3sec\left(\frac{1}{2}x\right)

Because the period is now 4π as indicated and for x=0 in the figure and this can be proven as follows:

Period=\frac{2\pi}{\frac{1}{2}}=4\pi

Also, for \ x=1 \ then \ y=3 as indicated in the figure and this can be proven as:

y=3sec\left(\frac{1}{2}x\right) \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{cos(0.5x)} \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{cos(0.5(0))} \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{1}=3

Use polar coordinates to find the volume of the given solid. bounded by the paraboloid z = 9 + 2x2 + 2y2 and the plane z = 15 in
mina [271]

Answer:

Z = 8 + 2x2 + 2y2

Convert to polar coordinates

Z = 8 + 2r2

Now theta will go from 0 to pi/2 because it's in the first quadrant.

R will go from 0 to the radius of the circle formed at the intersection of the plane and the paraboloid.

14 = 8 + 2r2

r = sqrt(3)

So r goes from 0 to sqrt(3).

You integrate 14-z where 0<r<sqrt(3) and 0<theta<pi/2.

It is 14-z and not z because just z would give the volume under the paraboloid.
