Suppose Ken has 25 coins and nickels and dimes only and has a total of a $1.65 how many of each coin does he have?

1 answer:

6 0

$x-\ number\ of\ nickels\\
y-\ number\ of\ dimes\\\\
x+y=25 \ \ \ | x=25-y\\
0.05x+0.1y=1.65\\\\
0.05(25-y)+0.1y=1.65\\\\
1.25-0.05y+0.1y=1.65\\\\
1.25+0.05y=1.65\ \ \ | subtract\ 1.25\\\\
0.05y=0.4\ \ \ \ \ | divide\ by\ 0.05\\\\
y=8\\\\
x=25-8=17\\\\
There\ are\ 17 \ nickels\ and\ 8\ dimes.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

x=0.87 or 86.67%

13 prescription claims out of 15 are paid

Step-by-step explanation:

First we organize the data:

prescription claims submitted: 4500

Prescriptions: 3900

The rate of claims paid is calculated using the following formula:

$x =\frac{Paid}{Total}$

We know that:

Paid = 3900

Total = 4500

$x =\frac{3900}{4500}$

$x =\frac{39}{45}$

$x =\frac{13}{15}$

x=0.87

Solving for an Unknown Using the Distributive Property

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Complete Question:

The equation a= 180(n-2)/n represents the angle measures, a, in a regular n-sided polygon. When the equation is solved for n, n is equal to a fraction with a denominator of a – 180. What is the numerator of the fraction?

Answer:

The numerator of fraction is -360

Solution:

Given that,

The equation represents the angle measures, a, in a regular n-sided polygon is:

$a = \frac{180(n - 2)}{n}$

We have to solve the equation for "n"

Rearrange the equation

$a \times n = 180(n - 2)\\\\a \times n = 180n - 360\\\\an - 180 n = -360\\\\Take\ n\ as\ common\ factor\\\\n(a-180) = -360\\\\n = \frac{-360}{a - 180}$

Thus the numerator of the fraction is -360
