I think the answer to this is: 25q + 10d + 5n + 60 = 87
The story says that you have 1 dollar and 87 cents; 60 cents of which is pennies. So, if you’re using an equation involving quarters, dimes and nickels, the total equation should equal to 87 cents (since that dollar bill could not be broken down to cents).
Answer:
Bags = 22
Hat = 14
22 x 2 = 44
14 x 4 = 56
So the first part is true
3 x 22 = 66
7 x 14 = 98
So the second part is true
14 is the answer
It's trial and error
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 110 Women !
Step-by-step explanation:
Call their numbers 4x to 5x.
Since there are a total of 198 people,
4x + 5x = 198
9x = 198
x = 22
so that there are
88 men and 110 women.
(x + 4)^4 = x^4 + 16x^3 + 96x^2 + 256x + 256
Because these are two consecutive numbers and the first integer is x, the second integer must be x+1 (it could be x-1 too, but here I'm going to solve the problem with x+1).
The sum of the two integers is 57, so we have:
x+ (x+1)= 57
⇒ (x+ x)+ 1= 57 (associative property)
⇒ 2x+ 1= 57
⇒ 2x= 57-1
⇒ 2x= 56
⇒ x= 56/2
⇒ x= 28
Since x= 28, the first integer is 28, and the second integer is:
x+1= 28+1= 29
The two numbers are 28 and 29.
Hope it helps.
