Let n = number of nickels, and p = number of pennies.
The number of coins is 25, so we get this equation.
n + p = 25
The value of the coins is 0.05 per nickel, and 0.01 per penny.
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Now you have a system of equations.
n + p = 25
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Solve the first equation for n:
n = 25 - p
Now substitute into the second equation.
0.05(25 - p) + 0.01p = 0.73
1.25 - 0.05p + 0.01p = 0.73
-0.04p = -0.52
p = 13
There were 13 pennies.
Now we substitute 13 for p in n + p = 25 to find out the number of nickels.
n + 13 = 25
n = 12
There are 13 pennies and 12 nickels.
Check: 13 pennies and 12 nickels does total 25 coins.
13 * 0.01 + 12 * 0.05 = 0.13 + 0.60 = 0.73
The value is $0.73.
Our answer is correct.
They are equal. They're equal because if you simplify 500/600, it becomes 5/6.
Answer:
$80 - $20 = $60 left.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the intersecting point, you have to put the two formulas equal to each other
First isolate the same variable, in this case y
So y=x-4
Now we can say
2x + 7 = x - 4
Now solve for x
X= 3
Now fill this in in either one of the formulas
Y= 2 (3) + 7
Y= 13
So they’ll intersect at (3,13)
No its not possible I cant explain right now because I'm in class but I will later
