Answer:
43
Step-by-step explanation:
90-47=43
D= # of dimes
q= # of quarters
QUANTITY EQUATION:
d + q= 64
COST EQUATION:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
STEP 1:
multiply quantity equation by -0.10 to be able to eliminate the d term in step 2
(-0.10)(d + q)= (-0.10)(64)
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
STEP 2:
add equation from step 1 to cost equation to eliminate the d term and solve for q
Add
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
-0.10d - 0.10q= -6.40
0.15q= 2.85
divide both sides by 0.15
q= 19 quarters
STEP 3:
substitute q value in step 2 into either original equation to find d value
d + q= 64
d + 19= 64
subtract 19 from both sides
d= 45 dimes
CHECK:
0.10d + 0.25q= $9.25
0.10(45) + 0.25(19)= 9.25
4.50 + 4.75= 9.25
9.25= 9.25
ANSWER: There are 45 dimes and 19 quarters.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Jim reached a greater depth by one foot, as he started 12 feet below the surface.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim
12 feet+17 feet = 29
29-3 feet (rose 3 feet) = 26
26+8= 34 feet
Carla
0 feet (surface)+ 19 feet= 19
19-3 feet= 16
16+17= 33 feet
75% of x = 63
<span>75/100 * x = 63 </span>
<span>So dividing by 75 / 100 on both sides </span>
<span>x = 63 / 75 / 100 </span>
<span>x = 63*100/75 </span>
<span>x = 84 </span>
<span>The number is 84 </span>
<span>So 75% of 84 = 63! </span>
<span>Hope that helps!</span>
