Q + n = 40....q = 40 - n
0.25q + 0.05n = 5
0.25(40 - n) + 0.05n = 5
10 - 0.25n + 0.05n = 5
-0.25n + 0.05n = 5 - 10
- 0.20n = -5
n = -5 / -0.20
n = 25 <=== 25 nickels
q + n = 40
q + 25 = 40
q = 40 - 25
q = 15 <== 15 quarters
Answer:
x >12
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + 5(x-3) > 3x + 11
Distribute
2 + 5x - 15 > 3x+11
Combine like terms
5x -13 > 3x+11
Subtract 3x from each side
5x-13-3x> 3x+11-3x
2x-13 > 11
Add 13 to each side
3x-13+13> 11+13
2x> 24
Divide by 2
2x/2 > 24/2
x >12
Answer:
1. 3/25
2. 22/25
3. 2/25
4. 7/50
5. 1 6/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h be the price of the helmet (not hemelt). Then 0.05h= $1.50.
To determine the price of the helmet, divide both sides of this equation by 0.05:
h = $30
The helmet is $30 before sales tax is applied, and $31.50 with tax.
