Q + n = 40....q = 40 - n
0.25q + 0.05n = 5

0.25(40 - n) + 0.05n = 5
10 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 5
-0.25n + 0.05n = 5 - 10
 - 0.20n = -5
n = -5 / -0.20
n = 25 <=== 25 nickels

q + n = 40
q + 25 = 40
q = 40 - 25
q = 15 <== 15 quarters

N=number of nickles
q=number of quarters

40 coins total so
n+q=40

total value is 500 cents
5n+25q=500
divide both sides by 5
n+5q=100


so we gots
n+q=40
n+5q=100

elimination
multily first equation by -1 and add to 2nd equation

-n-q=-40
<u>n+5q=100 +
</u>0n+4q=60

4q=60
divide both sides by 4
q=15

sub back
n+q=40
n+15=40
minus 15 both sides
n=25


25 nickles and 15 quarters

Rick cuts a 12-foot-long ribbon into 2 pieces. One piece is 3.5 feet longer than the other. What is the length of each piece?
GREYUIT [131]

Its impossible there is no way to solve it because x+3.5= y no number can make 12 if one number is 3.5 ft longer than the other Ignore this i dont feel like erasing this part.

144 in. 42 in. greater than the other 42 + x = y Nvm if you convert the numbers too in. the numbers are 93 + 51 = 144 and if you convert it back it would be

7.75 + 4.25 = 12

Kassie recorded the favorite sport of students at her school. She surveyed 800 students. How many more students chose Baseball t
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

40 more kids chose baseball over basketball.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to go about this is to use benchmark percentages.

For baseball, 25% of 800 people chose that, so we can do 800/4 to get 200, so 200 students chose baseball

For basketball, we could do 800/5 but that isn't mental math, so we can do 10% of 800 is 80 and 80*2=160. So 40 more kids chose baseball over basketball.
