Answer:
increasing by N% means the new value is 1+N/100 as much as the old value. So, we have
new = old*(1+1)(1+1.5) = 5.00 * old so, old = new/5 or 20%

Answer:
x = 2
y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it gives you the value of y already, just plug that into the equation, like so:
y = 4x - 9
x - 3 = 4x - 9
<em><u>Subtract the x from both sides:</u></em>
x - 3 = 4x - 9
-x - x
__________
-3 = 3x - 9
<em><u>Then, add 9 to both sides:</u></em>
-3 = 3x - 9
+9 + 9
________
6 = 3x
<em><u>Divide both sides by 3:</u></em>
2 = x
<em><u>Now plug in x for y:</u></em>
y = x - 3
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
If we let Q be the number of quarters and N be number of nickels, this is the formula we would use:
[1] 25Q + 5N = 635 (using cents instead of dollars)
We also know something about Q and N.
[2] Q + N = 51
So multiply both sides of the second equation by 5. The reason we do this is because we're going to need to cancel out one of the variables (either Q or N) to solve for the other one. If we multiply times 5, we'll have 5N in both equations.
5Q + 5N = 255
Now we have two equations, and the second one can be subtracted from the first.
25Q + 5N = 635
-(5Q + 5N) = -255
---------------------
20Q = 380
so
Q = 19
There are 19 quarters.
And since there are 51 coins in all, 51-19 = 32 nickels.
