Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to figure out how much money Jackie has since Pilar has the same amount of money, but in different coins. Jackie has 24 dimes and 13 quarters, so the amount of money is $2.40 + $3.25 = $5.65; therefore, Pilar has $5.65 also. In order to determine how many nickels and quarters Pilar has, we have to have a system of equations. It's up to us to write the equations we need to solve this. The first equation has to do with the NUMBER of coins Pilar has, the second has to do with the VALUE of each coin. We know that Pilar has only nickels and quarters and that she has a total of 53 coins. So the NUMBER equation is
n + q = 53
The VALUE equation relates how much each coin is worth to the total amount of money it equals:
.05n + .25q = 5.65.
Go back to the first equation and solve it for either n or q. I solved it for n:
n = 53 - q
Plug this into the second equation in place of n now to get:
.05(53 - q) + .25q = 5.65 and
2.65- .05q + .25q = 5.65 and
.20q = 3 so
q = 15. This means that there are 15 quarters. If there are 15 quarters, then there are
n + 15 = 53 nickels and
n = 38 nickels.
Answer:
x =12
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles add to 90 degrees
4x+4 + 5x-22 = 90
Combine like terms
9x - 18 = 90
Add 18 to each side
9x -18+18 = 90+18
9x = 108
Divide each side by 9
9x/9 = 108/9
x =12

fishsticks
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of pieces that we could have in 86' if were going to cut it by 14 1/4 long with 1/8 waste for each cut is 5.98 pieces. This is computed by converting first the fractions into decimal, 14.25 and 0.125, then add it together since there is a waste in every cut, 14.375. Then we will divide 86 inches by 14.375 inches.
