Think of it as (-4x+1)(3x+2) then distribute: -4x x 3x= -12x^2, -4x x 2= -8x, 1 x 3x = 3x, and 2 x 1=2. put together all the answers we just got so: -12x^2 - 8x +3x +2 then simplify to get -12x^2 -5x +2
Let the number of half dollars be x,
number of quarters = x + 2
amount of half dollars = 0.5x
amount of quarters = 0.25(x + 2)
= 0.25x + 0.5
total amount = 0.5x + 0.25x + 0.5
= 0.75x + 0.5
0.75x + 0.5 = 11.75
0.75x = 11.25
x = 15
number of quarters = x + 2
= 15 + 2
= 17
There are 17 quarters and 15 half dollars.
Answer:
240
Step-by-step explanation:
20/0.25 = 80
80 x 3 = 240
(x-3)(x+4). -3,4 multiply to -12, and add to get 1
