<h3>
Answer: Choice A</h3>
0.10d + 0.05n = 2.25
d = 2n
================================================
Explanation:
n = number of nickels
d = number of dimes
we have twice as many dimes as nickels, so we could have something like 18 dimes and 9 nickels. Algebraically we would write d = 18 and n = 9. The equation that fits this is d = 2n. The answer is between A and B at this point.
We rule out choice B since the 0.05d is incorrect. It should be 0.10d to represent the total value of all the dimes.
Choice A is correct
d = number of dimes
0.10d = value of all the dimes in dollars
n = number of nickels
0.05n = value of all the nickels in dollars
0.10d + 0.05n = total value from both coins combined
2.25 = total value from both coins combined
0.10d + 0.05n = 2.25
Answer:
y=-3x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
9=-3(1)+b
9=-3+b
9+3=3-3+b
12=b
Let
x-------------> <span>original price of the skates
we know that
15% of x is </span><span>$19.50
so
0.15x=19.50---------> x=19.50/0.15-----------> x=$130
the answer is
the </span>original price of the skates was $130<span>
</span>
