<span>N + D = 55 coins (1) (N stands for nickels, 5N + 10D = 390 cents (2) D stands for dimes) Simplify (2) by canceling the factor 5 in both sides: N + 2D = 78 (3) Subtract eq(1) from eq(3). You will get D = 78 - 55 = 23. Answer. 23 dimes and 55-23 = 32 nickels. Check. 23*10 + 32*5 = 390 cents</span>

Factor <br> (a-2b) (3x-5y) + (2b-a)(x-y)
agasfer [191]

Answer:

8by + 2ax - 4bx - 4ay

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean expand so:

(a - 2b)(3x - 5y) + (2b - a)(x - y)

3ax - 5ay - 6bx + 10by + 2bx - 2by - ax + ay

Now collect like terms:

2ax - 4ay - 4bx + 8by

This is your answer but in a better order:

8by + 2ax - 4bx - 4ay

You pick a card at random, put it back, and then pick another card at random. 2 3 4 5 What is the probability of picking a numbe
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

3/4 or a 75% chance

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of 4 cards ( 2 3 4 5), here are the cards greater than 3: 4, and 5. That leaves you with a 2/4 chance of drawing one of them. (2 cards, 4 in total).

Then, picking a 4 out of 4 cards is a 1/4 chance; since that is one card out of 4 total possibilities.

1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4. Or, a 75% chance.
