Answer:
-2 and 21/50
Step-by-step explanation:
PEMDAS says that paranthases go first, so we solve 2 and 1/5 minus 33/12. 2 and 1/5 simplifies to the improper fraction, 11/5. Then we find a common denominater between 11/5 and 33/12 to get 60. 11/5=132/60, and 33/12=165/60. (132/60)-(165/60)=-33/60. Then we multipl that by 4 and 2/5, which can simplify to the improper fraction, 22/5. (22/5)*(-33/60) is -726/300, and simplifies to -2 and 21/50. Hope this helps!
Answer:
37 dimes and 10 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
let d = # dimes
let n = # nickels
we can set up a system of equations:
n + d = 47
.05n + .10d = 4.2
if we solve the first equation for 'n' we get:
n = 47-d
now we can substitute this in for 'n' in the second equation:
.05(47-d) + .10d = 4.2
2.35 - .05d + .10d = 4.2
2.35 + .05d = 4.2
subtract 2.35 from each side to get:
.05d = 1.85
d = 1.85÷.05
d = 37
if d+n = 47 and d=37 then n = 10
Check:
.05(10) + .1(37) should equal 4.2
.50 + 3.7 = 4.2 [It Checks Out]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2
4x - 3y = 18
4x - 3(-2) = 18
4x + 6 = 18
4x = 12
x = 3
(3, -2)
