X= dimes
Three times as many = 3x= nickels

Dimes are worth 10 cents = 0.10x
Nickels are worth 5 cents = 0.05(3x)

Add both together & solve:

0.10x+0.05(3x)= 25
0.10+0.15x= 25
0.25x=25
Divide both sides by 0.25
x= 100 dimes
Substitute the value of x to find 3x
3x = 3(100)= 300 nickels

Hope this helps!! :)

Sarah hopes to be 5 feet tall by her next birthday. Right now, she is 148 centimeters tall. About how many more centimeters does
Alla [95]

Answer:

4.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to remind the conversion factor between feet and cm. We know that:

1 foot = 12 inches

1 inches = 2.54 cm

So,

1 ft = 12 \cdot 2.54 =30.48 cm

In this problem, Sarah's height right now is

h = 148 cm

She wants to be 5 feet tall by her next birthday: it means that her height should be

h'=5 ft \cdot 30.48 =152.4 cm

Therefore, she needs to grow by:

h'-h=152.4-148=4.4 cm

So, she needs to grow 4.4 cm more in order to be 5 feet tall.
