If there are 12 coins under the couch and every coin is either a nickel or a penny and together they are forming 32 cents then the equations which represent the problem will be x+y=12, 0.01x+0.05y=0.32. The correct option is B which is x+y=12, 0.01x+0.05y=0.32.

Given There are 12 coins and total money is 32 cents.

Let the number of pennies be x and the number of  nickels be y.

According to question there are 12 coins so the first equation becomes:

x+y=12.

Then we have been told that together they amount to 32 cents.

We know that 1 penny is 1 cent coin and 1 nickel is 5 cent coin so the equation becomes :

1*x+5*x=32

x+5y=32

converting into dollar

0.01x+0.05y=0.32.

Hence the right equations showing the problem of nickel and pennies are x+y=12, 0.01x+0.05y=0.32.

Please explain how to do it step by step,it is about slope
Veseljchak [2.6K]
•Slope is defined as "rise over run."
•Make sure that the line is straight. You can't find the slope of a line that isn't straight.
•Coordinates are the xand y points written as (x, y). It doesn't matter which points you pick, as long as they're different points on the same line.
•It doesn't matter which one you pick, as long as it stays the same throughout the calculation. The dominant coordinates will be x1 and y1. The other coordinates will be x2 and y2.
•Set up the equation using the y-coordinates on top and the x-coordinates on bottom.
•Subtract the two y-coordinates from one another.
•Divide the y-coordinate's result with the x-coordinate's result. Reduce the number if at all possible.

2|3x + 5| = -10 how break it down
iren2701 [21]
2|3x + 5| = -10 . Divide both sides by 2:

|3x + 5| = -5 ===>3x+5=-5 & -3x-5=-5 In both cases x=0
