Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given points:</u>
- A(-1, -9) and M(0.5, -2.5)
Let the coordinates of B are (x, y)
<u>Use midpoint formula to determine the point B:</u>
- 0.5 = (- 1 + x)/2 ⇒ 1 = -1 + x ⇒ x = 1 + 1 = 2
- -2.5 = (-9 + y)/2 ⇒ -5 = -9 + y ⇒ y = -5 + 9 = 4
Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
