Answer:
There are 17 quarters and 15 half dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of half dollars be x,
number of quarters = x + 2
amount of half dollars = 0.5x
amount of quarters = 0.25(x + 2)
= 0.25x + 0.5
total amount = 0.5x + 0.25x + 0.5
= 0.75x + 0.5
0.75x + 0.5 = 11.75
0.75x = 11.25
x = 15
number of quarters = x + 2
= 15 + 2
= 17
There are 17 quarters and 15 half dollars.
The answers are x=4 and y=323/2
1) 40/2x-3=8
Multiply both sides by 2x-3 to get rid of fraction
40= 8(2x-3)
Distribute 8
40= 16x-24
Add 24 to both sides
64=16x
Divide by 16
4=x
2) 2y-3/40=8
Multiply both sides by 40 to red rod of fraction
2y-3=320
Add 3 to both sides
2y= 323
Divide by 2
Y=323/2
Now just describe the differences in solving them
FYI / means fraction, right after the slash is bottom of fraction

Answer:
12 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q represent the number of quarters. Then the number of dimes is 16-q and the total value is ...
0.25q +0.10(16 -q) = 2.20
0.15q +1.60 = 2.20 . . . . . . . simplify
0.15q = 0.60 . . . . . . . . subtract 1.60
q = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.15
16-q = 12
There are 12 dimes in the collection.
Yessssss yessssss yesssss
