Answer:
Ron has 15 nickels and 9 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a system of equations where n is the number of nickels and q is the number of quarters he has:
n + q = 24
0.05n + 0.25q = 3
Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -0.25
-0.25n - 0.25q = -6
0.05n + 0.25q = 3
Add them together and solve for n:
-0.2n = -3
n = 15
So, Ron has 15 nickels. Find how many quarters he has by subtracting 15 from 24:
24 - 15
= 9
So, Ron has 15 nickels and 9 quarters.

Answer:
y = 2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is clearly marked: it's b = 3 (or 0, 3).
Going from the point (-3, -3) to the point (0, 3),
x increases by 3 and y increases by 6. Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise / run = 6 / 3, or m = 2.
Starting with the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:
y = mx + b, we substitute 2 for m and 3 for b, obtaining:
y = 2x + 3
Y = 4x
