Answer: x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the value of "x", you can set up de following proportion:

\frac{BQ+QD}{QD}=\frac{RC+CD}{CD}\\\\\frac{24+40}{40}=\frac{15+x}{x}

Now, the final step is to solve for "x" to find its value.

Therefore, its value is the following:

1.6=\frac{15+x}{x}\\\\1.6x=x+15\\\\1.6x-x=15\\\\0.6x=15\\\\x=\frac{15}{0.6}\\\\x=25

Challenge A bag contains pennies, nickels dimes, and quarters. There are 50 coins in all of the
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The bag contains $5.14

Step-by-step explanation:

18% of 50 = (.18)(50) = 9 pennies

40% of 50 = (.40)(50) = 20 dimes

2 more nickels than pennies = 9 + 2 = 11 nickels

40 coins so far, so 50 - 40 = 10 quarters

Total value:

9 x ($0.01) = $0.09  for pennies

20 x ($0.10) = $2.00 for dimes

11 x ($0.05) = $0.55 for nickels

10 x ($0.25) = $2.50 for quarters

Grand total value = $5.14
