Let's consider the number 83. The tens digit is 8 and the unit digit is 3. Note the tens digit's addition to the number is 80, and the unit's addition is 3. This means the tens digit adds 10 times its value, that is, 83 = 8*10 + 3.
Now, let's consider the number ab, where a is the tens digit, and b is the unit digit. It follows that
Number=10*a+b
The question gives us two conditions:
1) The sum of a two-digits number is 13.
2) The tens digit is 8 less than twice the units digit.
The first condition can be expressed as:
a + b = 13 [1]
And the second condition can be written as:
a = 2b-8 [2]
Replacing [2] into [1], we have:
2b-8 + b = 13
Operating:
3b = 13 + 8
3b = 21
Solving for b:
b = 21 / 3 = 7
Substituting into [2]:
a = 2*(7) - 8 = 6
Thus, the number is 67
Answer:
$15
Step-by-step explanation:
let the hourly rate of pay for Ben = B
let the hourly rate of pay for Judy = J
Judy worked 4 hours and Ben worked 1 hour, their combined pay was $75;
4J + B = 75 ----- i
Judy worked 2 hours and Ben worked 6 hours, their combined pay was $120
2J + 6B = 120 --- ii
Now, we should solve the expression;
Multiply equation ii by 2 and equation i by 1;
4J + B = 75 ----- i x 1 ; 4J + B = 75 -- iii
2J + 6B = 120 --- ii x 2 ; 4J + 12B = 240 ---iv
Now,
equation iv - iii;
11B = 165
B = $15
So, solving for J;
4J + B = 75
4J + 15 = 75
4J = 75 - 15 = 60
J = $15
Let x be the number of pennies which is also equal to the number of dimes. By this representation, the number of quarters is equal 46 - 2x. The total amount is $4.87 or 487 cents. The equation that best represent the given is,
x + 10x + 25(46 - 2x) = 487
The value of x from the equation is 17. Therefore, there are 17 of both pennies and dimes and 12 quarters.
