Jim has 28 nickels and 37 dimes in his pocket. which is determined by the substitution method.

<h3>What is the equation?</h3>

The term "equation" refers to mathematical statements that have at least two terms with variables or integers that are equal.

Let the number of nickels would be n

Let the number of dimes would be d

As per the given question,

d + n = 65  ....(i)

0.10d + 0.05n = 5.10  ....(ii)

From equation (i),

d + n = 65

d + n - n = 65 - n

d = 65 - n

Substitute in for the equation(ii): d = 65 - n

0.10(65 - n) + 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.10n + 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.05n - 6.5 = 5.10 - 6.5

- 0.05n = -1.4

n = 28

This means there are 28 nickels

Substitute the value of n = 28 in the equation (i),

d + n = 65

d + 28 = 65

d = 37

So there are 37 dimes

Thus, Jim has 28 nickels and 37 dimes in his pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim has 65 coins in his pocket. All of the coins are nickels and dimes. If the total value of his coins is $5.10, how many nickels or dimes does he have?

nickels = n

dimes = d

We use:

d + n = 65

0.10d + 0.05n = 5.10

solve for d:

d + n = 65

d + n - n = 65 - n

d = 65 - n

substitute in for the second equation: d = 65 - n

0.10(65 - n) + 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.10n + 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.05n = 5.10

6.5 - 0.05n - 6.5 = 5.10 - 6.5

- 0.05n= -1.4

n = 28

so there are 28 nickels

Now, solve for d: when n = 28

d + n = 65

d + 28 = 65

d = 37

so there are 37 dimes

Please explain to me how to find the solution of 3n+8=20 Thank you
allsm [11]
First, you subtract 8 by both sides ( 8-8/ 20-8) so now your equation is 3n=12. Next, you multiply 3n by 3, and get 0, and 12 multiplied by 3 and the answer is 36! Hope this helped.
