Multiply both sides of the second equation by 100 to get rid of the decimals:

0.05<em>n</em> + 0.10<em>d</em> = 1.50

==>  5<em>n</em> + 10<em>d</em> = 150

Multiply both sides of the first equation by -5:

<em>n</em> + <em>d</em> = 21

==>  -5<em>n</em> - 5<em>d</em> = -105

Add the two equations together:

(5<em>n</em> + 10<em>d</em>) + (-5<em>n</em> - 5<em>d</em>) = 150 + (-105)

Notice that the terms containing <em>n</em> get eliminated and we can solve for <em>d</em> :

(5<em>n</em> - 5<em>n</em>) + (10<em>d</em> - 5<em>d</em>) = 150 - 105

5<em>d</em> = 45

<em>d</em> = 45/5 = 9

Plug this into either original equation to solve for <em>n</em>. Doing this with the first equation is easiest:

<em>n</em> + 9 = 21

<em>n</em> = 21 - 9 = 12

So Donna used 12 nickels and 9 dimes.

Enter an equation in standard form for the line.<br> Slope is -4, and (-9, -12) is on the line.
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

4x + y +48=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are here given the slope of the line and one point through which it passes . The slope of the line is -4 and the point is (-9,-12) .

Here we can use the point slope form of the line as ,

\sf\longrightarrow y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)

Substitute the respective values ,

\sf\longrightarrow y - (-12) = -4\{ x -(-9)\}

Simplify LHS and RHS ,

\sf\longrightarrow y + 12 = -4( x +9)

Open the brackets in RHS ,

\sf\longrightarrow y + 12 = -4x -36

Add 36 and 4x to both sides ,

\sf\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{\orange{\sf  4x + y + 48 =0}}}
