Represent the unknows with n and d.
Then n+d = 44 (# of coins)
and
$0.05n + $0.10d = $3.10 (value of coins)
Solving the first equation for n, we get n = 44-d. Subst. 44-d for n in the 2nd equation:
0.05(44-d) + 0.10d = 3.10
Then 2.20 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10, or
2.20 + 0.05d = 3.10, or 0.05d = 0.90. Solving for d,
0.90
d = -------- = 18
0.05
There are 18 dimes and 44-18 nickels. How many nickels is that? ;)
Answer:
4% sales tax
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the original costs and subtract it from the price after sales tax.
$84.24-$81= $3.24
Divide 3.24 by 81
this gives you .04, now either multiply by 100 or move the decimal two places to the right to convert the decimal to a percentage.
The answer is that his average is 75.5 for the second nine weeks
I'd like to assume that the triangle is a right triangle and you solve for x so...
133 + c = 180 (supplementary property to find one angle of triangle)
c = 47
x = 180 - 90 - 47 (int. angles of triangle = 180)
= 90 - 47
= 43
Therefore, x is 43 degrees
