Adriana has $15.00 in dimes and quarters.
\n" ); document.write( "a. Name 3 ordered pairs (d,q) of dimes and quarters she might have.
\n" ); document.write( "b. Do these points lie on the same line?
\n" ); document.write( "=======================
\n" ); document.write( "a.
\n" ); document.write( "If q=10, d=(1500-25*10)/10=125 (125,10)
\n" ); document.write( "If q=30, d=(1500-25*30)/10=75 (75,30)
\n" ); document.write( "If q=50, d=(1500-25*50)/10=25 (25,50)
\n" ); document.write( "b. Yes. We can write an equation for the line.
\n" ); document.write( "Since the total amount is 1500, and dimes are worth 10 and quarters are worth 25, we have
\n" ); document.write( "10d + 25q = 1500
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for q:
\n" ); document.write( "q = (1500-10d)/25 = 60 - 0.4d
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
