Let x be the number of $10 bills in Iago pocket.
1. If he has twice as many $1 bills as $10 bills, then he has (2x) $1 bills.
2. He has two fewer $20 bills than he does $10 bills, then he has (x-2) $20 bills.
3. He has three more $5 bills than $10 bills, then he has (x+3) $5 bills.
In total he has $160 that is x·10+2x·1+(x-2)·20+(x+3)·5.
Equate these two expressions and solve the equation:
Thus, he has
Given:
s is inversely proportional to t.
When s = 0.5, t = 7.
To find:
The value of s when t=0.8.
Solution:
s is inversely proportional to t.
...(i)
Where, k is the constant of proportionality.
Putting s=0.5 and t=7, we get
Putting k=3.5 in (i), we get
This is the equation of proportionality.
Putting t=0.8, we get
Therefore, the value of s is 4.375 when t=0.8.
