Answer:
17 nickles !
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify the variables:
n = amount of nickels
d = amount of dimes
Next, setup the equations based on what you know. The first equation is:
n + d = 28
For the second equation, we know that a dime is worth 10¢ and a nickel is 5¢, so it should be:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
This a three-step answer:
In one formula (you can use any of them; most people use the simplest one), single out the variable on one side
Apply the first formula into the second formula, and solve it to get the value of one variable
Apply the answer from the second formula into the first formula, and solve it to get the value of the other variable
======
Step One:
n + d = 28
n + d - d = 28 - d
n = 28 - d
Step Two:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * (28 - d)) + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95
1.40 - 1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95 - 1.40
0.05d = 0.55
d = 11
Step Three:
n = 28 - d
n = 28 - 11
n = 17
======
Your answer should be 17 nickels and 11 dimes.
You can double check by applying the variables into both formulas.
n + d = 28
17 + 11 = 28
28 = 28
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * 17) + (0.10 * 11) = 1.95
0.85 + 1.10 = 1.95
1.95 = 1.95
I hope this helped.
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
After the decimal point is the tenths place, and after the tenths place is the hundredths place.
After the decimal point is the number 0, which is at the tenths place. After the tenths place is 6, which is at the hundredths place.
Answer:
Ooh man, this was back in geometry I think, I think the answer is 4 if my calculations are correct.
i think the bigger side is twice the size of the smaller side, so 2 times 8 is 16,
16 = 5x - 4
x = 4
Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 20, 12, and 32 together then divide by 7 because it says "One week" and a week is 7 days. So, it should be like 20 +12 + 32= 64
64 / (divided by) 7 = 9
