I’m guessing that this is for systems of equations?
n - nickels
d - dimes

These are the equations you start off with.
n = 5d-2
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05n

Substitute the top equation for n into the variable n in the bottom equation.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.05(5d-2)

Solve for d.
0.95 = 0.10d+0.25d-0.10
1.05 = 0.35d
3 = d

Substitute d into the top equation and solve for n.
n = 5(3)-2
n = 15-3
n = 12

There are 3 dimes and 12 nickels in the coin purse! Hope this helped <3

There are two pizzas. Conor ate 1⁄4 of a pizza, Brandon 2⁄8, Tyler 3⁄4, and Audrey 4⁄8. Who ate the most of the two pizzas?
Semenov [28]
Not exactly sure, but just by my knowledge and common sense I'd say Tyler. He ate 3/4 so he ate most out of what was given to him.

If 2 pounds of strawberries cost $4.50 how much would 3 pounds cost?​
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2lbs costs $4.50, then most likely 1lbs would be half of what 2lbs cost.

So take $4.50÷2= $2.25

Then take the cost of 2lbs @ $4.50 then add the $2.25 (essentially the cost per pound) and 3lbs would cost $6.75.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

At price 3 and 11, the profit will be $0

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

<em> A certain companies main source of income is a mobile app. The companies annual profit (in millions of dollars) as a function of the app’s price (in dollars) is modeled by P(x)=-2(x-3)(x-11) which app prices will result in $0 annual profit?</em>

My answer:

Given:

  • x is the app price
  • P(x) is the profit earned

If we want to find out the app price that will result in $0 annual profit? It means we need to set the function:

P(x)=-2(x-3)(x-11) = 0

<=> (x-3)(x-11)= 0

<=> x - 3 = 0 or x - 11=0

<=> x = 3 or x = 11

So at price 3 and 11, the profit will be $0

Hope it will find you well.
