Let the number of nickels be = n

Let the number of dimes be = d

Let the number of quarter be = q

Total money William has = $12.80

As given, there are 3 times as many quarters as nickels

q=3n

And 20 more dimes than nickels

d=20+n

As total money is $12.80

0.05n+0.10d+0.25q=12.80

Putting the values of 'q' and 'd' to find 'n'

0.05n+0.10(20+n)+0.25(3n)=12.80

0.05n+2+0.10n+0.75n=12.80

0.90n+2=12.80

0.90n=10.80

n=12

Hence the number of nickels are = 12

If you want to also find dime and quarter, then

q=3n=3\times12=36

d=20+n=20+12=32

A model house has a scale of
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: Assuming that you mean 1in:2ft the model house would be 13 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation: well 1 is half of 2 right? So if you want to get the numbers easier to use then just divide that 26 by 2 and then you get the scale 1in:1ft. From there it is easy, 13 feet of the real house= 13 inches in the model house
