Answer:

21 quarters and 19 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where q is the number of quarters and d is the number of dimes.

0.25q + 0.1d = 7.15

q + d = 40

Solve by elimination by multiplying the bottom equation by -0.25

0.25q + 0.1d = 7.15

-0.25q - 0.25d = -10

Add them together and solve for d:

-0.15d = -2.85

d = 19

Then, plug in 19 as d into the second equation to solve for q:

q + d = 40

q + 19 = 40

q = 21

So, there are 21 quarters and 19 dimes

Describe and correct the error in writing the phrase as an expression?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

12 < x

Step-by-step explanation:

In writing 12 less than a number x, the expression, 12 - x is wrong because "less than" is not the same thing as "minus" (-). Rather, the sign, "<" should have been used as follows:

12 < x.

The Marked price of a jacket at a dealer's shop is 2400. The dealer allows a discount of 15% to the retailer. As the company's p
Andrej [43]

Answer:

2400

2640

360

Step-by-step explanation:

the retailer has to sell it for the same price as the dealer.

so, both mark it for 2400 sale price.

if a customer buys it at the retailer, the retailer makes the 15% discount he got from the dealer as profit.

2400 = 100%

1% = 2400/100 = 24

15% = 24×15 = 360

the retailer makes this profit no matter what other fees or taxes are added.

the final price is then including 10% VAT

2400 = 100%

10% = 24×10 = 240

final price = SP + VAT = 2400 + 240 = 2640
