Answer:
m + n = 15
m - 3 = n
The numbers are 9 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
The sum of two numbers is fifteen; the first number is m and the second number is n. To translate to a system of equations, we can write that
m + n = 15 ..... (1)
Also, from the question,
One number is three less than the other,
Also, to translate to a system of equations, we can write that
m - 3 = n ...... (2)
If desired, we can determine m and n
From equation (1)
m + n = 15
Then,
m = 15 - n ...... (3)
Put the value of m in equation (3) into equation (2)
m - 3 = n
Then
15 - n - 3 = n
15 - 3 = n + n
12 = 2n
n = 12/2
∴ n = 6
For m, put the value of n into equation 3
m = 15 - n
m = 15 - 6
m = 9
∴ m = 9 and n = 6
Hence, the numbers are 9 and 6
Answer:
<h2>There are 13 quarters, 5 nickels and 20 dimes.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
- Max has $5.50.
- He has eight more quarters than he does nickels.
- He had four times as many dimes as he has nickels.
From these statements, we can deduce algebraical expressions to solve the problem. Let's call
quarters,
nickels and
dimes.
(8 more quarters than nickels)
(he has four times as many dimes as he has nickels).
(Max has a total of $5.50, one quartes is $0.25, one nickel is $0.05 and one dime is $0.10).
Let's replace the first two expressions into the third equation

There are 5 nickels.
Now, we use this value to find the number of quarters

There are 13 quarters.
Also, 
There are 20 dimes.
Therefore, there are 13 quarters, 5 nickels and 20 dimes.
