2n=d
nickel is 0,05 dollars     dime is 0.1 dollars
0.05(n)+0.1(2n)=3.5
0.25n=3.5
n=14
d=2(14)=28
hope u can understand

D=2n
.05n+.1d=3.5
I multiplied the nickels and dimes by these values because that is their actual monetary value 
.05n=3.5-.1d
multiply everything by 20
n=70-2d
d/2=70-2d
.5d+2d=70 
2.5d=70
d=28 
n=14 
so there are <u>28 dimes and 14 nickels 
</u>
checking this answer 
28 dimes = $2.8
14 nickels = .70
2.8+.7=3.5

ArbitrLikvidat [17]
Simply add up all.

4  1/2  +    6  2/3  + 9  1/4

(4 + 6 + 9) +    1/2  + 2/3 + 1/4

19                    6/12 + 8/12 + 3/12 = (6+8+3)/12 = 17/12

19      17/12
 
19       1 5/12

19 + 1  5/12

= 20   5/12

20   5/12    yards was purchased.

There’s no picture so I’ll give my own answers.
The long side needs to be x radical 3, the short leg is just x, and the hypotenuse is 2x. So one example could be 5 radical 3, 5, and 5 times 2

A farmer has 500 acres to plant acres of corn, x, and acres of cotton, y. Corn costs $215 per acre to produce, and cotton costs
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

x + y = 500

215x + 615y = 187,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation can show the amount of land.  The farmer has 500 acres to plant corn, x, and cotton, y.

x + y = 500

The second equation can show the cost.  The farmer has $187,500 to invest when corn costs $215 per acre and cotton costs $615 per acre.

215x + 615y = 187,500

The system of equations is

x + y = 500

215x + 615y = 187,500
