Let n = number of nickels, and p = number of pennies.
The number of coins is 25, so we get this equation.
n + p = 25
The value of the coins is 0.05 per nickel, and 0.01 per penny.
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Now you have a system of equations.
n + p = 25
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73
Solve the first equation for n:
n = 25 - p
Now substitute into the second equation.
0.05(25 - p) + 0.01p = 0.73
1.25 - 0.05p + 0.01p = 0.73
-0.04p = -0.52
p = 13
There were 13 pennies.
Now we substitute 13 for p in n + p = 25 to find out the number of nickels.
n + 13 = 25
n = 12
There are 13 pennies and 12 nickels.
Check: 13 pennies and 12 nickels does total 25 coins.
13 * 0.01 + 12 * 0.05 = 0.13 + 0.60 = 0.73
The value is $0.73.
Our answer is correct.
- Vertex/General Form: y = a(x - h)^2 + k, with (h,k) as the vertex
- (x + y)^2 = x^2 + 2xy + y^2
- Standard Form: y = ax^2 + bx + c
So before I put the equation into standard form, I'm first going to be putting it into vertex form. Since the vertex appears to be (-1,7), plug that into the vertex form formula:

Next, we need to solve for a. Looking at this graph, another point that is in this line is the y-intercept (0,5). Plug (0,5) into the x and y placeholders and solve for a as such:

Now we know that <u>our vertex form equation is y = -2(x + 1)^2 + 7.</u>
However, we need to convert this into standard form still, and we can do it as such:
Firstly, solve the exponent: 
Next, foil -2(x^2+2x+1): 
Next, combine like terms and <u>your final answer will be:
</u>

Step-by-step explanation:
When x = 8 y = 15
The way to figure this out is to subtract 12 by 5. That’s 7 so there’s a difference of 7 between both of the numbers.
Hope this helped!
