400 should be the answer. Hope this helps!
If all were dimes, the value would be $3.30. Brendan has $2.85 more than that. Each quarter that replaces a dime increases the value by $0.15, so Brendan must have $2.85/$0.15 = 19 quarters.
Brendan has 14 dimes and 19 quarters.
Answer:
Gina is 12 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we will have to write these statements mathematically and then solve.
Let Gina's age be x, let Gina's brother's age be y and let Gina's sister's age be z.
The second statement"Gina's older sister is twice Gina's age" can be mathematically written as: z =2 x ---------------------------(1)
The next statement "Gina's brother is half Gina's age" can be mathematically written as y =
---------------------------------------(2)
Then the next statement "the sum of their ages is 42" can be mathematically written as: x + y + z = 42 ----------------------------(3)
We can now proceed to solve;
Substitute equation (1) and equation(2) into equation (3)
x + y + z = 42
x +
+ 2x = 42
Multiply through by 2
2x + x + 4x = 84
7x = 84
Divide both-side of the equation by 7
= 
x = 12
Therefore, Gina is 12 years old
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle (a triangle that has a ninety degree angle in it) the the square of the side opposite the right angle is always equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. Therefore, we can use the information we are given to figure out the missing side:
