Answer:

q = 15

n = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Let the nickels = n

Let the quarters = q

q + n = 40                            (1)

0.25*d + 0.05*n = 5.00       (2)    Multiply 2 by 100 to get everything into pennies. It is currently in dollars.

25q + 5n = 500                    Multiply (1) by 5

5q + 5n = 200                     Subtract

20q = 300                           Divide by 20

20q/20 = 300/20               Do the division

q = 15

q + n = 40                             Substitute 15 for q

15 + n = 40                           Subtract 15 from both sides

15 - 15 + n = 40 - 15              

n = 25

Check

15 * 0.25 + 25 * 0.05

3.75 +  1.25

5

Which is what it should equal.

What are all the parts of an algebraic expression and can you define them?
mr Goodwill [35]
Variables - a quantity that may change, depends on the context of the math problem.  Ex: x,y
Terms - a variable, or constant, that is multiplied by a variable or variables.
Ex: 5x + 2 + 3y <-- has 3 terms
Coefficient - the constant that multiplies the variable and is next to a variable, Ex: (5x) <-- coefficient is 5
Constants - A fixed value such as 5, 6, 7, etc

Help me pls... ....

Step-by-step explanation:

A1

1 yard = 3 feet

1 foot = 12 inches

therefore,

100 yards = 100×3×12 inches = 3600 inches

A2

again, 1 yard = 3 feet

8 ft = 8/3 = 2.67 yards = 2 2/3 yards

A3

1 gallon = 8 pints

A4

1 liter = 1000 milliliters (remember, "mili" means 1/1000).

therefore,

2.2 liters = 2.2×1000 = 2200 milliliters

A5

again, 1 liter = 1000 milliliters

therefore

1 milliliter = 1/1000 liter

670 milliliters = 670 × 1/1000 liter = 670/1000 liter =

= 0.67 liter

B1

1 kg (kilogram) = 1000 grams ("kilo" means 1000).

we have 3 layers.

each layer weighs (cake plus icing)

1/2 kg + 100 g = 500 g + 100 g = 600 g

3 layers then weigh

3×600 g = 1800 g

the additional candle weighs 250 g.

so, the total is

1800 g + 250 g = 2050 g = 2.05 kg

B2

area is 110 m².

1 m = 100 cm ("centi" means 1/100).

and 1 m² is then 100×100 = 10000 cm².

so, the area in cm² is

110 × 10000 = 1,100,000 cm²

the top area of one brick = 10 × 20 = 200 cm²

so, we need

1,100,000 / 200 = 11,000 / 2 = 5500 bricks
