Answer:

Dimes = 8 and

Quarters = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Total value = 380 cents

let dimes be x

quarters be 2x - 4

100 pennies = $1

1 dime = 10 pennies

1 quarter = 25 pennies

Therefore;

$ 3.78 = 378 pennies

10x+25(2x-4)=378

10x + 50 x - 100 = 378

60 x = 378 + 100

60 x = 478

     x = 478/60

        = 7.9667

        ≈ 8

Therefore;

Dimes = 8 and

Quarters = 12

The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 156. Which is an equation that can be used to solve for x?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an odd integer as 2x + 1 so consecutive odd digits would be 2x + 1 and 2x + 3, so the equation is:

2x + 1 + 2x + 3 = 156

4x + 4 = 156 can be used to solve for x and find the integers.

4x = 152

Dividing through by 4:

x = 152/4 = 38

So the 2 integers are 2(38) + 1 and 2(38) + 3

= 77 and 79.
