Hi there!
Let r be the number of matches that Rebecca's team won.
We know that Katheryn's team won 9 more matches than Rebecca's team, and we know that Katheryn's team won 52 matches.
Using this given information, we can create the following equation.

If you wish to solve this, we can subtract both sides by 9 to get the following value for r.

Have an awesome day! :)

Answer:
17 nickles !
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify the variables:
n = amount of nickels
d = amount of dimes
Next, setup the equations based on what you know. The first equation is:
n + d = 28
For the second equation, we know that a dime is worth 10¢ and a nickel is 5¢, so it should be:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
This a three-step answer:
In one formula (you can use any of them; most people use the simplest one), single out the variable on one side
Apply the first formula into the second formula, and solve it to get the value of one variable
Apply the answer from the second formula into the first formula, and solve it to get the value of the other variable
======
Step One:
n + d = 28
n + d - d = 28 - d
n = 28 - d
Step Two:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * (28 - d)) + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95
1.40 - 1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95 - 1.40
0.05d = 0.55
d = 11
Step Three:
n = 28 - d
n = 28 - 11
n = 17
======
Your answer should be 17 nickels and 11 dimes.
You can double check by applying the variables into both formulas.
n + d = 28
17 + 11 = 28
28 = 28
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * 17) + (0.10 * 11) = 1.95
0.85 + 1.10 = 1.95
1.95 = 1.95
I hope this helped.
Answer:
10. 23
11. -17
12. 0
13. -4
14. -6
15. 4
Explanation:
10. 8+15= 23
11. -8-9= -17
12. 8-8= 0
13. -8+4= -4 (same as 4-8)
14. -10+4= -6 (same as 4-10)
15. 12-8= 4
Answer:
8 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller of the right triangles formed is similar to the whole triangle so
4/x = x/16 where x = the shorter leg
x^2 = 64
x = 8.
