10 coins are nickels and 2 coins are quarters

Well, given that a quarter equals 5 nickels, we can reason that, in order to get 12 coins, we would have to get 10 nickels (equals 50 cents) and 2 quarters (the other 50 cents, to make a dollar).

You didn't say whether you needed this expressed in a mathematical formula, but knowing the answer already, it shouldn't be hard to come up with one if necessary.

Hope this helps.

Sara has $50 in her wallet in $5 and $20 bills. Create a linear equation (with
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

<em>0 $20 bills and 10 $5 bills</em>

<em>1 $20 bills and 6 $5 bills</em>

<em>2 $20 bills and 2 $5 bills</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

Let's set:

x=number of $5 bills

y=number of $20 bills

The total amount Sara has is given by

5x+20y

And we know it's equal to $50, thus:

5x+20y=50

Dividing by 5

x+4y=10

We would need another condition to solve for x and y, but we can determine some combinations that solve the problem.

Solving for x:

x=10-4y

Since both x and y are integers and cannot be negative:

10-4y≥0

Swapping sides:

4y≤10

Dividing by 4:

y≤2.5

Thus, y can only have the values {0,1,2}

For y=0

x=10-4*0=10

x=10

For y=1

x=10-4*1=6

x=6

For y=2

x=10-4*2=2

x=2

Thus, the possible combinations are:

0 $20 bills and 10 $5 bills

1 $20 bills and 6 $5 bills

2 $20 bills and 2 $5 bills

suppose 5 men and 7 women are on a crowded elevator. at the next floor, four people get off the elevator. find the probability t
lubasha [3.4K]
The total number of arrangements for all of them to be women is:
C(7, 4) because the order does not matter; we'd still have the same arrangements.

Now, we can simplify this:
C(7, 4) = \frac{7!}{4!(7 - 4)!}
= \frac{5040}{4!3!}
= \frac{5040}{24 \cdot 6}
= \frac{5040}{144} = 35

Now, the total number of arrangements, without restriction, is simply: C(12, 4) because we don't care who we pick.

\text{P(4 women): } \frac{35}{495} = \frac{7}{99}
