Answer:

The prime factorization of 1001 is 7*11*13, so with the constraint that the tables seat between 2 and 19 guests, we can use tables that seat either 7, 11, or 13 guests.

For tables that seat 7, the caterer would need 11*13 = 143 tables.

For tables that seat 11, the caterer would need 7*13 = 91 tables.

Peggy had three times as many quarters as nickels. She had $1.60 in all. How many nickels and how many quarters did she have?. .
Andru [333]

Let

n-------> the number of nickels

q------> the number of quarters

we know that

1\ quarter=\$0.25\\1\ nickel=\$0.05

so

0.05n+0.25q=1.60 ----> equation A

q=3n ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

0.05n+0.25[3n]=1.60

0.05n+0.75n=1.60

0.80n=1.60

n=2

Find the value of q

q=3*2=6

therefore

<u>The answer part a) is</u>

the number of nickels are  2  and the number of quarters are 6

<u>the answer Part b) is</u>

The expressions that represents the number of quarters is

q=3n
