Answer:

(12,1.625)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement:

Cost of gas per gallon = $6

Cost of diesel per gallon = $8

Cost of x gallon gas  = 6x

Cost of y gallon diesel = 8y

You have at most $85 to spend on fuel

Therefore the equation we get is:

6x+8y≤85

You must purchase at least 12 gallons of gas for your car

x≥12

Plot the graph and you get possible solutions:

(12,1.625)..

A collection of nickels and quarters is worth 2.85 . There are 3 more nickels than quarters how many nickels and quarters are th
Zolol [24]

A nickel is equal to 5 cents or 0.05 dollars.

A quarter is equal to 25 cents or 0.25 dollars.

Let number of nickels be = n

Let number of quarters be = q

0.05n+0.25q=2.85    ...........(1)

As it is given, there are 3 more nickels than quarters so equation becomes,

n=q+3   ................(2)

Plug in the value of 'n' from (2) in (1)

0.05(q+3)+0.25q=2.85

= 0.05q+0.15+0.25q=2.85

0.30q=2.70

q=9

As n=q+3 we get, n=9+3=12

Hence, there are 12 nickels and 9 quarters.
