Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The number of coins each she have are 10 dimes coin and 14 nickel coins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Minh has a coin collection of dimes and nickels worth $1.70.

The number of nickels is four more than the number of dimes.

Now, to find each coins she have.

Let the number of dimes be x.

And the number of nickels be 4+x.

As the value of dimes = $0.10, and the value of nickel = $0.05.

Now, according to question:

0.10x+0.05(4+x)=1.70

0.10x+0.20+0.05x=1.70

0.15x+0.20=1.70

Subtracting both sides by 0.20 we get:

0.15x=1.50

Dividing both sides by 0.15 we get:

x=10.

Number of dimes = 10.

Number of nickel = 4+x=4+10=14.

Therefore, the number of coins each she have are 10 dimes coin and 14 nickel coins.

so to complete the square in
ax^2+bx+c=d form

make sure a=1
subtract c from both sides
take 1/2 of b and square it
add that to both sides
factor perfect square

1x^2-1x-2=0
a=1
move c to other side
add 2 to oth sides
x^2-1x=2
take 1/2 of b and square it
1/2 of -1=-1/2
squaer it
1/4
add that to both sides
x^2-1x+1/4=2+1/4
factor left side
(x-1/2)=2+1/4

first blank is 1/2

2+1/4=8/4+1/4=9/4

blanks are
1/2 and 9/4
