Answer: There are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of nickels, y = Number of quarters.
As per given,
x+y = 205 ...(i)
0.05x+0.25y = 31.85 ... (ii) [1 nickel = $0.05, 1 quarter = $ 0.25]
Multiply (ii) by 20, we get
x+5y=637 ...(iii)
Eliminate (i) from (iii)
4y = 432
⇒ y = 108 [Divide both sides by 4]
Put value of y in (i), we get
Hence, there are 97 nickels and 108 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
DE = 8x - 13
EF = 5x + 17
DF = x + 21
Also,
DE = EF
which means that,
8x - 13 = 5x + 17
8x - 5x = 17 + 13
3x = 30
x = 30/3
x = 10
Now,
DE = 8x - 13 = 8×10 - 13 = 80 - 13 = 67cm
EF = 5x + 17 = 5×10 + 17 = 50 + 17 = 67cm
DF = x + 21 = 10 + 21 = 31cm
keeping in mind that when the logarithm base is omitted, the base 10 is assumed.

6 times because you find the common denominator which is 8 so 3/4 is 6/8. He needs to fill his cup 6 times.
Order the numbers from least to greatest.
3.4, 31/5, 35.8%, 3.64, 322%
