We can write a system of equations:

1x + 10y = 182
x + y = 56

Where 'x' is the number of $1 bills, and 'y' is the number of $10 bills.

To find this we can solve using substitution.

Re-arrange the 2nd equation:

x + y = 56

Subtract 'y' to both sides:

x = -y + 56

Now we can plug in '-y + 56' for 'x' in the first equation.

1x + 10y = 182

1(-y + 56) + 10y = 182

-y + 56 + 10y = 182

Subtract 56 to both sides:

-y + 10y = 126

Combine like terms:

9y = 126

Divide 9 to both sides:

y = 14

Now we can plug this into any of the two equations to find the 'x' value.

x + y = 56

x + 14 = 56

Subtract 14 to both sides:

x = 42

So our final answer is (42, 14).

This means that the motel clerk had 42 $1 bills, and 14 $10 bills.

2 number cubes are rolled what is the probability that the sum if the numbers rolled is either a 4 or a 10
goldenfox [79]
With 2 cubes, there are 3 ways to roll a sum of 4... 1 and 3, 3 and 1, 2 and 2.
with 2 cubes, there are 3 ways to roll a sum of 10....6 and 4, 4 and 6, 5 and 5.

total possible outcomes = (6 * 6 ) = 36

probability of this happening is 6/36 reduces to 1/6

How could you change the equation from 5x+2=5x+5 so it has infinitely many solutions?
Ganezh [65]

I'm working on the same thing right now and I'm using every resource in my hands right now to find a solution. I will edit this post when I have more. If you need any more help I have completed the previous activity and most of this one.

EDIT:

Ok so I checked with somebody who is pretty good with math and they said that 5x=5x would be right. Not too sure but that's what I'm putting.

I put EVERYTHING for this assignment in comments down below. Geez all of this for 5 freakin points.
