We will represent everything in cents
nickles are worth 5 cents and dimes are 10 cents
n=number of nickles
d=number of dimes



60 total coins
n+d=60


total is 430 cents

5n+10d=430
divide both sides by 5
n+2d=86

we gots

n+d=60 and
n+2d=86
eliminate

multiply first equation by -1 and add to 2nd equation

-n-d=-60
<u>n+2d=86 +</u>
0n+1d=26

d=26

so

n+d=60
n+26=60
n=34


34 nickles and 26 dimes

What is the slope of line a?
marta [7]

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is defined as "rise over run". If you count out the units, you should be able to see that your rise is 1 and your run is 3 and is pointing downward, so your answer is -1/3.

Alternatively you could use Slope Formula: m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}
