Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n, d, q represent the numbers of nickels, dimes, and quarters. The problem statement tells us ...
n +d +q = 37
n = d +4
q = n +2
___
Rearranging the second equation gives ...
d = n -4
Substituting that into the first, we get ...
n + (n -4) +q = 37
2n +q = 41 . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify
Rearranging the third original equation gives ...
n = q -2
Substituting into the equation we just made, we get ...
2(q -2) +q = 41
3q = 45 . . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify
q = 15 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

The number of nickels is 2 fewer, so is 13. The number of dimes is 4 fewer than that, so is 9. The total number of coins is 15 + 13 + 9 = 37, as required.
Since we know the x and y, you would divide 480 by 15 and 32 miles per hour. Then you would multiply 7.2 by 32 and get 230.4. Your trying to find with wind and against wind so just times that by two and get 460.8. I think
You're forgetting to add how many miles did the taxi drove you, without it, this problem doesn't have a solution, you're not including how many miles were drove additionally, as well as how much money you carry in the first place bud sorry
Ok slot method
3 slots
1st slot has 52 options
2nd slot has 51 optoins (1 went to first slot)
3rd slot has 50 options (1 went to previous slot)
number of ways=52*51*50=132600 ways
