Answer:

Gabby received

7 nickels

10 dimes

3 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the number of dimes

y----> the number of nickels

z---> the number of quarters

Remember that

1 dime=$0.10

1 nickel=$0.05

1 quarter=$0.25

we know that

0.10x+0.05y+0.25z=2.10 ------> equation A

x=y+3-----> equation B

z=y-4 -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y

0.10(y+3)+0.05y+0.25(y-4)=2.10

0.10y+0.30+0.05y+0.25y-1=2.10

0.40y=2.10-0.30+1

0.40y=2.80

y=7 nickels

<em>Find the value of x</em>

x=y+3 -----> x=7+3=10 dimes

<em>Find the value of z</em>

z=y-4 -----> z=7-4=3 quarters

therefore

Gabby received

7 nickels

10 dimes

3 quarters

Two trains, Train A and Train B, simultaneously depart Station A and Station B. Station A and Station B are 252.5 miles apart fr
omeli [17]

-- The trains start moving at the same time.

-- The space between them is initially 252.5 miles.

-- They reduce the distance between them at the rate of (124.7+253.5)=378.2mph.

-- It will take them (252.5 / 378.2) = 0.6676 hour to meet.  

That's 40min 3.49sec .

-- After tooting and puffing toward each other for 8 minutes, they still have <em>32min 3.49sec</em> to go before they meet each other.  We're all hoping that they're on different tracks.

Simon pays $9 for 6 visits to swim at the community pool. He pays $18 for 12 visits to swim. How much does it cost for each visi
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do cost per quantity you would get $9 over 6 visits. Then you divide both sides by 6 because to get to one by 6 it's 6 so when you divide both sides by 6 you would get 1.5 over 1 and all you do is add a zero because you're dealing with money

Hope this helps :)

The area of the right triangle shown is 24 square feet.
Stolb23 [73]

Given : A  = 24 sq feet

A = 0.5 base x height

base = x , height = x+2

A = 0.5 x(x+2)  = 24 sq feet

1) 0.5 x(x+2) = 24 (A)

2) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (D)

To check the rest un-wrap the bracket:

x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 24

x^2 + x^2 + 4 + 4x = 24

2x^2 + 4x - 20 = 0

x^2 + 2x - 10= 0 (NO)

Likewise:

x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 100

x^2 + x^2  +4 + 4x = 100

2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 100

2x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0

3) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (F)

To sum up: that's what apply:

1) 0.5 x(x+2) = 24 (A)

2) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (D)

3) x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0 (F)
