<span>Let n = the number of nickles
Let q = the number of quarters
Then for your problem we have
(1) n + q = 43 and
(2) 5*n + 25*q = 100*6.95 (always work in cents to avoid decimal numbers) or
(3) 5*n + 25*q = 695
Now substitute n of (1) into (3) and get
(4) 5*(43 - q) + 25*q = 695 or
(5) 215 - 5*q + 25*q = 695 or
(6) 20*q = 695 - 215 or
(7) 20*q = 480 or
(8) q = 24
Then using (1) we get
(9) n + 24 = 43 or
(10) n = 19
Let's check these values.
Is (.05*19 + .25*24 = 6.95)?
Is (.95 + 6.00 = 6.95)?
Is (6.95 = 6.95)? Yes
Answer: Kevin and Randy have 19 nickles and 24 quarters in the jar.</span>
Answer:
0.9%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Rich measured the height of a desk to be 80.7 cm. The actual height of the desk is 80 cm.
We will use percentage error formula to solve our given problem.
Therefore, Rich's percent error in calculation is 0.9%.
It's C. In order to be in standard form you have to have all your exponents in descending order. They don't all have to be there in order, the ones that are just have to go from highest to lowest.
N= P-180. so the computer would originally be 720 dollars. reduced by 25%, or 180, the new price is 540.
P would equal -3/7
Hope it helps!
