Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Add like terms;

2x+5+3x-7=18

↓

5x-2=18

We want x by itself so we need to remove that negative 2, So <u>add</u> it on one side and to the other.

You should get this;

5x=20

now we divide by 5 (remember to do both sides) to get the x by itself,

and so you get x =4

I hope this helped!

Gisele has $5.90 in quarters and nickels. If Gisele has 16 more nickels than quarters, how many quarters does she have? [I don't

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: There are 17 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of quarters and Number of nickels =x+16

∵ 1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $0.25

value of x quarters = 0.25 x

value of x+16 nickels = 0.05(x+16)

Then, as per given,

$0.05(x+16)+0.25 x= 5.90 \\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.05x+0.8+0.25x=5.90\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.30x=5.9-0.8\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.30x=5.1\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{5.1}{0.30}=\dfrac{51}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=17$

Hence, there are 17 quarters.
