<u>ANSWER: </u>

Zach has 28 dimes and 7 quarters.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, Zach has 4 times as many dimes as quarters  

And they have a combined value of 455 cents,  

We need to find how many of each coins does he have?

Let, the number of dimes be x and number of quarters be y.

Then, x = 4y → (1)

Total combined value = 455 cents

x(value of one dime) + y(value of one quarter) = 455 cents

x(10 cents) + x(25 cents) = 455 cents

10x + 25y = 455 → (2)

Now, substitute (1) in (2)

10(4y) + 25y = 455

40x + 25y = 455

65y = 455

y = 7

substitute y value in (1)

x = 4(7)  = 28

Hence, zach has 28 dimes and 7 quarters.

Compare the enumerators because they have the same denominator. 2 is large than 1 so 2/3 is larger than 1/3

After the addition of an acid, a solution has a volume of 90 milliliters. The volume of the solution is 3 milliliters greater th
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer: 21.75\ milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the original volume of the solution (in milliliters) before the acid was added and "y" the volume of the solution (in milliliters) after the addition of the acid.

Set up a system of equations:

\left \{ {{x+y=90} \atop {y=3x+3}} \right.

Applying the Substitution Method, you can substitute the second equation into the first equation and then solve for "x":

x+y=90\\\\x+(3x+3)=90\\\\4x+3=90\\\\x=21.75

mrs_skeptik [129]
<span>Since it is given that AB ≅ AC, it must also be true that AB = AC. Assume ∠B and ∠C are not congruent. Then the measure of one angle is greater than the other. If m∠B > m∠C, then AC > AB because of the triangle parts relationship theorem. For the same reason, if m∠B < m∠C, then AC < AB. This is a contradiction to what is given. Therefore, it can be concluded that 


Answer: Angle (B) is Congruent to Angle (C)
