Answer:

3+d=q and 0.10d+0.25q=1.80

There are 3 dimes and 6 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation has two unknowns - the total number of dimes and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.  

We know there are three more quarters than dimes. We write that as 3+d=q.

We also know the total cost and the value of each coin. We write 0.10d+0.25q=1.80.

We substitute 3+d for q in the second equation.

0.10d+0.25(3+d)=1.80

0.10d+0.75+0.25d=1.80

0.35d+0.75=1.80

We isolate the variable by subtracting 0.75 across the equal sign and then dividing by the coefficient of d.

0.35d=1.05

d=3

There are 3 dimes.

How do I do it and show my work along with it?
Rudiy27
Be kind and say please,that is being rude when you don't say it. Well, how much times does 6 go into 34? 5 times right. So then put 30 under the 34. You get 4. So then bring down the 5. How much times does 6 go into 45. 7 right. So then put 42 under 45. You get 3. Now add a decimal point after the 5 and after the 7. Add zero after the 5 . Bring down the zero. How much times does 6 go into 30? 5 times, so you put 30 under 30 and get zero. If you have any more questions,please leave them below in the comments.

Write the equation of the line parallel to Y equals 2/3X +1 through the point (0,-4)  use slope intercept form
Andrew [12]

Writing the slope-intercept form of a linear equation, we have:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Since parallel lines have the same slope, we can see that the slope of the line y = 2/3x + 1 is equal m = 2/3, so for our equation we also have m = 2/3.

Now, using the point (0, -4), we have:

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{2}{3}x+b \\ (0,-4)\colon \\ -4=\frac{2}{3}\cdot0+b \\ b+0=-4 \\ b=-4 \end{gathered}

So our equation is:

y=\frac{2}{3}x-4

y = 2/3x - 4

How should this problem be solved?(a3)2
baherus [9]
You can not "solve" this, so to speak, rather simplify this expression. Take the "2" and multiply that by the "a" and the "3" in the parentheses. You will then have the simplified answer of: 2a times 6. 
Hope that helps!

Write the two missing values to make these equivalent fractions correct : ?/3 = 8/12= 4/?
Elodia [21]
X/3 = 8/12
12 * x = 8 * 3
12x = 24
x = 2

8/12 = 4/y
8y = 48
y = 6
