Write a system of equations and solve.
x + y = 10
5x + 10y = 90
Multiply and combine equations
-5x - 5y = -50
5x + 10y = 90
------------------
5y = 40
y = 8
x = 2
There are 2 nickels and 8 dimes in the jar. Hope this helps! :)
Decimal form: 4.05, 0.5
Exact form: 9/2, 1/2
A I think I am not 100% right
The equation in point slope is:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-6=5(x-2)
X+y+5=0
y=-x-5
If a solution exists y=y so we can say
x^2-9x+10=-x-5 add x+5 to both sides
x^2-8x+15=0 now factor
x^2-3x-5x+15=0
x(x-3)-5(x-3)
(x-5)(x-3) so x=3 and 5, using y=-x-5
y(3)=-8 and y(5)=-10
So the two solutions are:
(3,-8) and (5,-10)
