Answer: There are 12 bills for $20, 13 bills for $10 and 14 bills for $5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of twenties be x

Let the number of tens be x+1

Let the number of fives be x+2

Amount from twenties will be given as

20\times x=20x

Amount from tens will be given as

10\times (x+1)=10x+10

Amount from fives will be given as

5\times (x+2)=5x+10

According to question,

20x+10x+10+5x+10=440\\\\35x+20=440\\\\35x=440-20\\\\35x=420\\\\x=\frac{420}{35}\\\\x=12

So, there are 12 bills for $20, 13 bills for $10 and 14 bills for $5.

How do you simplify -5x-x+14x-3x
jolli1 [7]

You'd have no problem simplifying that expression if it said

                    -(5 cows) - (1 cow) + ( 14 cows) - (3 cows) .

You'd just add up the cows, and simplify the expression to say

                                 5 cows .

When you see an expression that talks about 'x's instead of cows,
you get scared.  It has something to do with algebra and math and
all that stuff, so you freeze.

Relax.  Just make each 'x' a cow, and suddenly it almost solves itself.

Please help final exam
Finger [1]
I think the answer here would be D. When it rains several inches, the water level of the lake increases, because the word Causation means: the relationship between cause and effect; causality. If it rains a lot, it will cause the lake to increase. ( if help on ur exam use Socratic and brainly!❤️) Hope you do well!!!
