Answer:

n = nickels, q = quarters

Equation 1: n+q=30

Equation 2: 0.05n+0.25q = 3.30

Step-by-step explanation:

From equation 1, n = 30-q

Substitute in Equation 2:

0.05(30-q) + 0.25q = 3.30

1.5 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 3.30

0.2q = 1.8

q = 9

Substitute in new equation:

n = 30-9

n = 21

It is important to note a nickel is worth 5 cents and a quarter is 25 cents. This helps us build the equations.

Answer:

$-3m^{12}{n^{6} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin simplifying this, we can first divide the coefficients, giving us:

$\frac{-3m^{5}n^{4} }{m^{-7} n^{-2} }$

We know that when dividing exponents, this means we need to subtract the exponent on the denominator from the numerator. This gives us:

$\frac{-3m^{5+7} n^{4+2} }{1}$

Now, simplifying this gets:

$-3m^{12}{n^{6} }$
