Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Use pythagorean theorem: a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}

8^{2} +x^{2} =17^{2} \\ 64 + x^{2} = 289 \\\\x^{2} = 289 - 64\\x^{2} = 225\\x = 15

Kevin and Randy Muise have a jar containing 92 coins, all of which are either quarters or nickels. The total value of the coins
Artemon [7]
<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>

2. In the equation 5(x - 3) = 25, what should you do after using the Distributive Property?​
son4ous [18]

Answer:

umm... This how I learned from the chapter simple equation. Hopefully helps

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 3) = 25  we have to find the value of 'x'

so transpose 5 x to the other side = (x - 3) = 25 divided by 5 becuz it was multiplication on the other side so it is equal to = (x - 3) = 5

Now we transpose -3 which is equal to = x = 5 + 3 = 8

so, <u>x = 8</u>

<u />

<u>hopefully it helps!!!!!!!</u>
