Answer:
Dimes = x = 52
Nickels = y = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Dimes = x
Nickels = y
x + y = 91 (1)
0.10x + 0.05y = 7.15 (2)
From (1)
x = 91 - y
Substitute x = 91 - y into (2)
0.10x + 0.05y = 7.15
0.10(91 - y) + 0.05y = 7.15
9.10 - 0.10y + 0.05y = 7.15
- 0.10y + 0.05y = 7.15 - 9.10
-0.05y = -1.95
y = -1.95 / 0.05
= 39
Substitute y = 39 into (1)
x + y = 91
x + 39 = 91
x = 91 - 39
x = 52
Dimes = x = 52
Nickels = y = 39
Please provide the other fraction so we can give you the right number or at least a picture.
Answer: x = 9 (choice D)
Assuming this is a geometric kite, then this means that triangle ABD is a reflection over the line BD to get triangle BCD. Furthermore, this points to AB and BC being the same length
AB = BC
3x - 5 = 22 .... substitution
3x - 5+5 = 22+5 .... add 5 to both sides
3x = 27
3x/3 = 27/3 ..... divide both sides by 3
x = 9
The answer is a Rational Number
