Answer:

25 dimes & 12 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be "n" nickels and "d" dimes

Total, there are 37 of them, so we can write:

n + d = 37

Also, valueof nickel is 0.05 and value of dime is 0.10 (in dollars) and total value of these 37 coins is 3.10, so we can write:

0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10

Now we can write first equation as:

n + d = 37

n = 37 - d

Replace this into equation 2 and solve for d:

0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10

0.05(37 - d) + 0.10d = 3.10

1.85 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10

0.05d = 3.10 - 1.85

0.05d = 1.25

d = 1.25/0.05

d = 25

Now, n = 37 - d, n = 37 - 25 = 12

So,

There are 25 dimes & 12 nickels

Answer:

12 nickel   25 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

n=nickels

d=dimes

I'll multiply by 100 the value of the coins to avoid decimals

n  +  d  = 37

5n    + 10d = 310

Now Multiply the first row by 10 (to cancel dime )

10n  +10 d = 370

5n+   10d =  310

Subtract the second from the first:

5n  =  60

n=12

 12 nickels           25 dimes

0.05*12 = 0.60

0.10 *25 = 2.5

    0.60 +2.5 = 3.10

What is y = -3x in standard form?
worty [1.4K]
For Ax+By=C, we have y=-3x. We want both the y and x variable on the same side, and that leads us to either subtract y from both sides or add 3x to both sides. You can do either, but I personally prefer the latter, so we have 3x+y=0. We have A=3 (since that is the coefficient for x) and B=1 (since 1*y=y). Lastly, C=0

Please help me please i really need help please
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>(3x+3y)=6</h3>

3x + -3y = 6

3x + -3y = 6

3x + -3y + 3y = 6 + 3y

3x + 0 = 6 + 3y

3x = 6 + 3y

x = 2 + y

x = 2 + y
