Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

      First, we will write a mathematical equation for the phrase given.

-> Let n be "a number"

             four subtracted from twice a number is two

             four subtracted from twice a number = 2

             (twice a number) - 4 = 2

             2n - 4 = 2

      Now, we will solve this equation by isolating the variable.

             2n - 4 = 2

             2n = 6

             n = 3

When Cullen cleaned behind his dresser, he found 73 cents, all in nickels and pennies. There were 25 coins. How many were nickel
Georgia [21]
Let n = number of nickels, and p = number of pennies.
The number of coins is 25, so we get this equation.
n + p = 25

The value of the coins is 0.05 per nickel, and 0.01 per penny.
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73

Now you have a system of equations.

n + p = 25
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73

Solve the first equation for n:
n = 25 - p

Now substitute into the second equation.

0.05(25 - p) + 0.01p = 0.73

1.25 - 0.05p + 0.01p = 0.73

-0.04p = -0.52

p = 13

There were 13 pennies.
Now we substitute 13 for p in n + p = 25 to find out the number of nickels.

n + 13 = 25
n = 12

There are 13 pennies and 12 nickels.

Check: 13 pennies and 12 nickels does total 25 coins.
13 * 0.01 + 12 * 0.05 = 0.13 + 0.60 = 0.73
The value is $0.73.
Our answer is correct.

GenaCL600 [577]
Let
s-------> <span>represent the number of sheep
g-------> </span><span>represent the number of goats

we know that
1) </span><span>Morgan moves no more than 26 of her sheep and goats into another field
so
(s+g) </span><span>≤ 26------> inequality 1

2) </span><span>Fewer than 14 of her animals are sheep
so
s < 14-------> inequality 2

therefore

the answers are
