Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q represent the number of quarters (the higher-value coin). Then 8-q is the number of dimes, and Jill's total amount in change is ...
0.25q +0.10(8-q) = 1.25
0.15q + 0.80 = 1.25 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
0.15q = 0.45 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.80
q = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15
the number of dimes is 8-q = 8-3 = 5.
Jill has 3 quarters and 5 dimes.
Answer:
10 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x pounds be the amount of mixed nuts we require.
Amount of peanuts in this mix = 0.70x pounds. Amount of peanuts in the 20% mix = 0.20*15 = 3 pounds.
So we have the equation:-
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70 x + 3 = 0.40(x + 15)
0.70x + 3 = 0.40x + 6
0.70x - 0.40x = 6 - 3
0.30x = 3
x = 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
If 200 g fertiliser required for 8 m^2 then for 1m^2 we'd need 25 g of fertiliser
(i) 14×25 = 350 g fertiliser would be needed for 14 m^2 land
(ii) 450÷25 = 18 m^2 land could be fertilised with 450 g fertiliser
Answer:
x=-37/3
y=-22/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x+2y=10 (1)
2x-5y=12 (2)
(1)+(2) <=> -3y=22
