Since .25*10 is 2.50 and .10*15 is 1.50 it equals $4. So the ratio is 10:15 which turns to 2:3 ratio simplified.

Let x = # of quarters // Let y = the # of dimes

25x + 10y = 400

x + y = 25

Using these two equations, we can make a system to solve. The formatting on Brainly makes it hard to write on here, so I'll just handwrite it.

Basically, the answer is 3:2.

Aneli [31]
Katie, Let the number of nickles = N Since there are 7 more dimes than nickles, the number of dimes D = N + 7 Since there are 4 more quarters than nickles, the number of quarters Q = N + 4 Since quarters = $0.25, dimes = $0.10, and nickles = $0.05 and all added together = $4.90 ⇒  0.25·Q + 0.10·D + 0.05·N = 4.90 Now multiply through by 100 to eliminate the decimal: 25Q + 10D + 5N = 490 Substitute for Q and D 25(N+4) + 10(N+7) + 5N = 490 25N + 10N + 5N +100 +70 = 490 40N + 170 = 490 ⇒ 40N = 320 ⇒ N = 320/40 N = 8, D = N+7 = 15 Q = N+4 = 12 Check: 25(12) + 10(15) + 5(8) = 300 + 150 + 40 = 490

Explain why each non-zero integer has two square roots but only one cube root.
Nezavi [6.7K]
The square root of a number is a value that when multiplied by itself it gives the number. For example: 4x4=16, so a square root of 16 is 4. This is why each integer has two square roots. The cube root of a number is a special value that, when used is a multiplication three times,gives that number
