The question is incomplete:
James has dimes and quarters saved up in his change jar. He has a total of 162 coins totaling $31.20 what is the total amount james has in quarters?
a. $10.00
b. $6.20
c.$15.50
d.$25.00
Answer:
d.$25.00
Step-by-step explanation:
With the information provided, you can write the following equations given that dimes are equal to 0.10 and quarters to 0.25 to determine the number of dimes and quarters that James has:
x+y=162 (1)
0.10x+0.25y=31.20 (2), where:
x is the number of dimes
y is the number of quarters
First, you can solve for x in (1):
x=162-y (3)
Then, you have to replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:
0.10(162-y)+0.25y=31.20
16.2-0.10y+0.25y=31.20
0.15y=31.20-16.2
0.15y=15
y=15/0.15
y=100
Finally, you have to replace the value of y in (3) to find x:
x=162-100
x=62
Now, you know that James has 100 quarters and you can multiply this number for the value of a quarter to find the amount James has in quarters:
100*0.25=25
According to this, the answer is that James has $25 in quarters.
X^2+20x+10 that's the answer
Answer:
z=44/3
Step-by-step
Subtract the numbers 52-12=40
3z-4=40
Add 4 to both sides
3z-4+4=40+4
SImplify
3z=44
Divide both sides by 3
3z/3 = 44/3
z=44/3 or decimal form= 14.66
