2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4
2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15
Answer: 15
Answer:
<u>a. 11</u>
<u>b. 9</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>A:</em>
2 x 4 = 8
8 + 3 = 11
<em>B:</em>
-2 x -2 = 4
4 + 5 = 9

Answer:
8 nickels and 9 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
If all were dimes, the value would be $1.70. It is $0.40 less than that. Changing a dime for a nickel reduces the value by $0.05, so there must have been $0.40/$0.05 = 8 such changes.
There are 8 nickels and 9 dimes.
