25q + 10d = 425
q + d = 20
First thing's first, picture 4 quarters. Do you know how much these 4 quarters are worth? Obviously, you'd answer one dollar, but take the time to think about how exactly you came up with this answer.
"Well, it's simple," you might think, "Multiply 0.25 by 4."
Similar to this train of thought, the first equation is formulated by doing exactly that. 'q' represents an unknown number of quarters, and 'd' an unknown number of dimes. We use 25q and 10d, because, well, we're multiplying their value by the number of coins. They're equivalent to 425 because the 20 unknown coins make $4.25 (I converted it to cents to get rid of the pesky decimals, but if you want to keep it as dollars that works too).
Because the equation states that there are 20 coins in total, we know that we can make the equation 'q + d = 20' since there are 20 quarters and dimes in total.
Let me know if you need any further explanation :)

Answer:
100feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the height reached by a dolphin expressed by the equation is h = -16t^2 + 80t. At maximum height, the velocity is zero, hence;
v(t) = dh/dt = -32t + 80
0 = -32t + 80
32t = 80
t = 80/32
t = 2.5secs
Substitute t = 2.5 into the height formula h = -16t^2 + 80t
h = -16(2.5)^2 + 80(2.5)
h = -100+200
h = 100feet
Hence the maximum height the dolphin jumps is 100feet
Since you don't want any leftover items, you have to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of both the crayons and bubbles. Since the highest common factor for both 28 and 12 is 4, the greatest number of gift bags you can make without any leftover items would be 4 gift bags.
Hope I could help.
