5q + 2d = 270
To determine the intercepts, start by setting d to 0, then to find q. The conditions yield:
5q = 270
q = 54; (0, 54)
2d = 270
d = 135; (135, 0)
This equation illustrates the total number of coins in the piggy bank. For (0, 54), this indicates the quantity of quarters when dimes are absent, while (0, 135) displays the number of dimes when there are no quarters.
Answer:
1.4×10⁻⁵=0.000014
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the exponent of the 10 term is negative, shift the decimal point to the left by 5 positions;
1.4×10⁻⁵=0.000014
