So, first lets define our variables:
let x = the number of dimes
let y = the number of nickels
so our first equation would be x+y = 16
Since dimes are 10 cents and nickels are 5 cents the next equation would be as follows:
.10x+.05y = 1.35
now change the first equation so y = -x+16
now substitute:
.10x+.05(-x+16) = 1.35
then multiply so you get .10x+-.05x+0.8=1.35
combine like terms and you get .05x+0.8 = 1.35
then subtract 0.8 from both sides and you get .05x = 0.55 then subtract
and you get x = 11 then substitute 11 for where x should be and you should get y = 5
So, you have 11 dimes and 5 nickels
He can make 3 batches of soup.
Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.
0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10
We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:
7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5
Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5
Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3
Answer:
23 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the diagram attached
The sum of angle on the straight line is 180°
103+3x+15+x+10 = 180
128+4x =180
4x = 180-128
4x = 52
x = 52/4
x = 13
The measure of the angle of the intersection between Derby Drive and Rosemont is x+10
= 13+10
= 23 degrees
Hence the measure of the angle is 23 degrees
The probability of a 2 or a 5 is 50%

Answer: Choice B</h3>
Use a rigid transformation to prove that angle NPO is congruent to angle NLM
=====================================================
Explanation:
The AA stands for "angle angle". So we need two pairs of angles to prove the triangles to be similar. The first pair of angles is the vertical angles ONP and MNL, which are congruent. Any pair of vertical angles are always congruent.
The second pair of angles could either be
- angle NOP = angle NML
- angle NPO = angle NLM
so we have a choice on which to pick. The pairing angle NOP = angle NML is not listed in the answer choices, but angle NPO = angle NLM is listed as choice B.
Saying angle NLM = angle LMN is not useful because those two angles are part of the same triangle. The two angles must be in separate triangles to be able to tie the triangles together.
We would use a rigid transformation to have angle NPO move to angle NLM, or vice versa through the use of a rotation and a translation.
