<span>Amanda has 26 nickels and dimes. We shall call nickels x and dimes y. We can write the following equations: x = 3y -2 or -x +3y = 2 x + y = 26 We can cancel out the x to give 4y = 28 or y = 7 If there are 26 coins in total and 7 of them are dimes then there must be 19 nickels. The number of nickels (19) is two fewer than three times the number of dimes ( 3(7) - 2 = 19).</span>

First month's profit of the company = $2,400.

After the first month, the profit is modeled by the function

J(t) = 2.5t + 1,250, t is the number of months after the first month the shop opened.

Now, P(t) describes the total profit earned by the company.

So, P(t) = (Profit earned from first month) + (Profit earned from remaining 11 months of the year)

= 2400 + (2.5t + 1250)

<u><em>= 2.5t + 3650</em></u>

Hence, total profit earned for the year = 2.5t + 3650.
