Answer:
130 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
A nickel is worth 5 cents = 0.05n
A dime is worth 10 cents = 0.10d
Taliyah has 174 coins in her collection of dimes and nickels.
n + d = 174
n = 174 - d
The total value of the collection is $15.20.
0.05n + 0.10d = $15.20
We substitute 174 - d for n
Hence:
0.05(174 - d) + 0.10d = 15.20
8.7 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 15.20
- 0.05d + 0.10d = 15.20 - 8.7
0.05d = 6.5
d = 65/0.05
d = 130 dimes
The number of dimes she has in her collection is 130 dimes
21v + 8 - 12v - 7 + 3t - 1t = (combine like terms)
9v + 2t + 1 <==
Question #2
Erica will have to work for 14 hours in order to buy her sneakers.
How to solve:
You subtract $31 from $150 which equals to $119
You multiply 8.50 (which is the amount of money she gets paid every hour) by the answers they gave you.
8.50 multiplied by 14 is 199
Erica had to work 14 hours to make $199
Your answer is D) 14
