Eq. 1 .10x + .25y = 9.45
Eq. 2 x + y = 60 rewrite as x = 60 - y and substitute into equation 1.
.10(60 - y) + .25y = 9.45
6 - .1y + .25y = 9.45
6 + .15y = 9.45
.15y = 3.45
y = 23
60 - 23 = 37
23 quarters
37 dimes
23* .25 = 5.75
37 * .1 = 3.70
5.75 + 3.70 =9.45
Answer:
x= -5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>Answer:</h2>
3 ( x - 7 ) = 18
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Let the number be x, so that
According to the Question,
The difference of a number and 7 will be x - 7
Then, three times the difference of a number and 7 is 18 will be 3 ( x - 7 ) = 18.
