The answer is 0.3. To find this answer, <span>1/2 / 3/5 = <span>56</span> ≅ 0.8333333</span>
Question 1:
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: number of nickels
y: number of dimes
We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem.
We have then:
0.05x + 0.10y = 6.10
x + y = 67
Solving the system we have:
x = 12
y = 55
Answer:
there are 12 nickels
Question 2:
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: Allan's score
y: Dave's score
We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem.
We have then:
x + y = 375
x = 2y-60
Solving the system we have:
x = 230
y = 145
Answer:
Dave: 145 Allan: 230
