Question

Anthony has a cup full of nickels and dimes that he would like to put in his savings account. When he takes the cup to the bank, the banker tells him that the 566 coins in the cup are worth $43.80. Which of the following systems of equations models the coins in Anthony’s cup? Let n represent nickels, and d represent dimes.

Answer 1

Answer:

$n+d=566$

$0.05n+0.10d=43.80$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let nickels be represented by = n

Let dimes be represented by = d

Total number of coins in the cup = 566

So, first equation becomes :

$n+d=566$

The total value of coins is = $43.80

So, second equation becomes :

$0.05n+0.10d=43.80$

The equations are not given to choose from, but these are the equations that form according to given situation.

Answer 2

The answer would be 566\43.80 is 12.9223744292
