16w-15w =.
1w=20
1/1=20/1
W=20
Let x = the number of dimes
Let y = the number of pennies.
There are 8 coins, therefore
x + y = 8 (1)
The coins are worth 17 cents, therefore
10x + y = 17 (2)
Subtract equation (1) from equation (2).
10x + y - (x + y) = 17 - 8
9x = 9
x = 1
From (1), obtain
y = 8 -x = 8 - 1 = 7
Answer: 1 dime, 7 pennies.
Answer:
12 m
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be solved using the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 = b^2 + c^2
20^2= 16^2 + c^2
400= 256 + c^2
400-256= c^2
144 = c^2
c = √144
c= 12
