<span>Amanda possesses a total of 26 coins consisting of nickels and dimes. Let’s denote the number of nickels as x and the number of dimes as y. This gives us the equations: x = 3y - 2 or -x + 3y = 2 x + y = 26 By eliminating x, we derive 4y = 28, resulting in y = 7. Given there are 26 total coins and 7 dimes, it follows that there are 19 nickels. The quantity of nickels (19) is two less than three times the dimes amount (3(7) - 2 = 19).</span>

Answer:

The solution to the equation is 40

This indicates the max number of wedding invitations they can afford to send within their budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zero of the function, we set the dependent variable (here, m) to zero.

So we have;

0 = 50-1.25w

1.25w = 50

w = 50/1.25

w = 40

What implication does this have in this context?

Essentially, it means that the couple can send out invitations to a total of 40 people based on their budget.

|\Omega|=(\text{the area of the triangle})=\dfrac{a^2\sqrt3}{4}=\dfrac{3^2\sqrt3}{4}=\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{4}\\|A|=(\text{the area of the sector})=\dfrac{\alpha\pi r^2}{360}=\dfrac{60\pi \cdot 1^2}{360}=\dfrac{\pi}{6}\\\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{\dfrac{\pi}{6}}{\dfrac{9\sqrt3}{4}}\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{\pi}{6}\cdot\dfrac{4}{9\sqrt3}\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{2\pi}{27\sqrt3}\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{2\pi\sqrt3}{27\cdot3}\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{2\pi\sqrt3}{81}\approx13.4\%

In a two-tailed test where the p-value stands at 0.0275, it indicates that with a threshold of 0.025, we should dismiss the hypothesis asserting equal proportion. This conclusion follows from p = 0.0275 in line with the guideline P-value < p.

Next, we solve equation 2

y=125/3

Now, we combine equations 1 and 2

y-x=125/3 -64/3
