$\frac{|DC|+|AB|}{2}=|LM|\\\\|AB|=x+8;\ |LM|=4x+3;\ |DC|=187\\\\substitute:\\\\\frac{187+x+8}{2}=4x+3\ \ \ \ /\cdot2\\\\195+x=8x+6\ \ \ /-195;\ /-8x\\\\-7x=-189\ \ \ /:7\\\\\underline{\underline{x=27}}$

In Juan's coin bank there are nickels (n),

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The answer is 8 quarters, 16 nickles, and 32 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the equation would be (2/4d) x 5 +d x 10 +1/4d x 25= 600 (Don't put 6.00, that's dollars. We put 6 dollars into cents to make it easier.)
Then we slowly start to solve: 10/4d + 10d + 25/4d = 600
10d+40d+25d/4 = 600 (Put all of that over 4, not first 25d)
75d= 600 x 4
d=600 x 4/75 (same here put everything over 75)
d=32
So then n= 2 x 32/4 = 16
Then n would be equal to : 1/4d= 1/4 x 32 = 8
So your answer would be 8 quarters, 16 nickles, and 32 dimes.

Hope this helped :)
