Answer:
<u>Part A: </u>
<u>n = 5q (1st equation)</u>
<u>0.05n + 0.25q = 2 (2nd equation)</u>
<u>Part B:</u>
<u>q = 4 ⇒ n = 5 * 4 = 20</u>
<u>Part C:</u>
<u>Margie has 20 nickels and 4 quarters, for a total of $ 2.00</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's recall that a nickel has a value of $ 0.05 and a quarter a value of $ 0.25.
Let n represent the number of nickels and q represent the number of quarters.
Part A:
Write a system of equations to represent the situation.
n = 5q (1st equation)
n * 0.05 + q * 0.25 = 2
0.05n + 0.25q = 2 (2nd equation)
Part B:
Replacing n in the 2nd equation to solve for q:
0.05n + 0.25q = 2
0.05 * 5q + 0.25q = 2
0.25q + 0.25q = 2
0.5q = 2
q = 2/0.5
<u>q = 4 ⇒ n = 5 * 4 = 20</u>
<u>Part C:</u>
<u>Margie has 20 nickels and 4 quarters, for a total of $ 2.00</u>
Answer: -74
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to solve - 2y - 9 = 7 to find what "y" equals so we can plug that into 9y - 2
1. Solve -2y - 9 =7:
-2y = 16
y = -8
2. Plug -8 into the expression 9y - 2:
9(-8) - 2
-72 -2
-74!
Im sorry if i didnt do this correctly :/
Answer: 0

Ligit 0 cuz you are multimplying by 0
Answer:
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
=> ax+y = 5
<u><em>Putting x =2, y =3</em></u>
=> a(2)+3 = 5
=> 2a = 5-3
=> 2a = 2
<em>Dividing both sides by 2</em>
=> a = 1
