How can you solve it if you don't know the equations? :P Just kidding...
n+d=22, so we can say that d=22-n
5n+10d=120, and using d found above in this equation gives you:
5n+10(22-n)=120
5n+220-10n=120
-5n=-100
n=20, and since d=22-n, d=2
So there are two dimes and twenty nickels...
check...
20(5)+2(10)=100+20=120 cents which is $1.20
n+d=22, 20+2=22, 22=22
Thanks for the question!
Don't forget 0 is a whole number:
0 + 12
1 + 11
2 + 10
3 + 9
4 + 8
5 + 7
6 + 6
Hope this helps!
Let s and g represents the numbers of suits and gowns produced.
The number of zippers used is 2s+g.
The number of buttons used is 5s+8g.
In order to use all of the available zippers and buttons, we must have ...
- 2s + g = 171
- 5s + 8g = 576
Cramer's rule tells you the solution to the system
Is given by
- x = (bf-ey)/(bd-ea)
- y = (cd-fa)/(bd-ea)
Using this rule on the equations for zippers and buttons, we have
... s = (1·576 -8·171)/(1·5 -8·2) = -792/-11 = 72
... g = (171·5 -2·576)/-11 = -297/-11 = 27
72 suits and 27 gowns can be made from available zippers and buttons.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the mean of the numbers is 12
so here
let's that one as x and another one as 2x since it is given that one is twice the other
Therefore we get
Given mean = 12
Hence it's 11 and 22
