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

What is the width of a box when the length is x+2, the height is x+8, and the volume is x^3+9x^2+6x-16?
Nostrana [21]

(x+2)(x+8) = x^2 +10x +16

(x^2 + 10x + 16)(x-1) = x^3+9x^2+6x-16, so the other dimension is x-1

Kelly was asked to determine whether △KLN is congruent to △MNL. She noted that KL ≅ MN, LM ≅ KN, and that the three pairs of cor
Art [367]

Answer:

<h2>Kelly is wrong, with this congruent parts, we can conclude that triangles are congruent.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To demonstrate congruent triangles, we need to use the proper postulates. There are at least 5 postulates we can use.

  • Angle-Angle-Side Theorem (AAS theorem).
  • Hypotenuse-Leg Theorem (HL theorem).
  • Side-Side-Side Postulate (SSS postulate).
  • Angle-Side-Angle Postulate (ASA postulate).
  • Side-Angle-Side Postulate (SAS postulate).

In this case, Kelly SAS postulate, because the corresponding sides-angles-sides are congruent, i.e., KL ≅ MN and LM ≅ KN, also, all corresponding angles are congruent.

So, as you can see, only using SAS postulate, the congruency can be demonstrated. (Refer to the image attached to see an example of SAS postulate)

Nezavi [6.7K]
<h3>4 people do 10 hours and one person does 20 hours</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

A supervisor must split 60 hours of overtime between five people

One employee must be assigned twice the number of hours as each of the other four employees

Let  "x" be the number of hours overtime per person.

One person does 2x hours of overtime

Which means,

(number of hours overtime per person)(6 person) = 60 hours

6x = 60

x = 10

Thus, 4 people do 10 hours and one person does 20 hours
