1 nickle = 5 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

$4.45 = 445 cents

let

n = the number of nickles, n>=0

d = the number of dimes, d>=0

a jar containing only nickels and dimes contain a total of 60 coins:

n + d = 60

the value of all the coins in the jar is $4.45:

5n + 10d = 445

by solving the system of equations:

n + d = 60

5n + 10d = 445

we find:

n = 31 nickels

d = 29 dimes

Supplementary angles add up to 180, so
6x+60+90 = 180 and solve for x
6x= 30

Predict the reactivity of silicon in water relative to that of sodium, magnesium, and aluminium. Explain your answer. How does t
Inessa [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.

Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.

Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
