Multiply both sides of the second equation by 100 to get rid of the decimals:
0.05<em>n</em> + 0.10<em>d</em> = 1.50
==> 5<em>n</em> + 10<em>d</em> = 150
Multiply both sides of the first equation by -5:
<em>n</em> + <em>d</em> = 21
==> -5<em>n</em> - 5<em>d</em> = -105
Add the two equations together:
(5<em>n</em> + 10<em>d</em>) + (-5<em>n</em> - 5<em>d</em>) = 150 + (-105)
Notice that the terms containing <em>n</em> get eliminated and we can solve for <em>d</em> :
(5<em>n</em> - 5<em>n</em>) + (10<em>d</em> - 5<em>d</em>) = 150 - 105
5<em>d</em> = 45
<em>d</em> = 45/5 = 9
Plug this into either original equation to solve for <em>n</em>. Doing this with the first equation is easiest:
<em>n</em> + 9 = 21
<em>n</em> = 21 - 9 = 12
So Donna used 12 nickels and 9 dimes.
Answer:
y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
it says that y is the inverse of x so if x=3 and y=8, so if x=8 than y must equal 3
$16.14 =pants
Explanation:
$25-$7.28=17.72
17.72/2 =8.86
8.86+7.28=16.14
25-16.14=8.86 shirt
I hope that helped ..
Answer:
-2x - y = -5 in slop intercept form would be <u>y = -2x + 5 </u>
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x - y = -5
first add -2x to the left side to move it to the right side because whatever you do to one side u do to the other.
-y = -5 + 2x
divide by -1 on the whole equation
y = -2x + 5 is your answer.
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
1 step:
n=1, then

So, for j=1 this statement is true
2 step:
Assume that for n=k the following statement is true

3 step:
Check for n=k+1 whether the statement

is true.
Start with the left side:

According to the 2nd step,

Substitute it into the 

So, you have proved the initial statement
