Answer: nickels = 14, dimes = 42, quarters = 18
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let n represent nickels <em>which has a value of $0.05 </em>
Let d represent dimes <em>which has a value of $0.10</em>
Let q represent quarters <em>which has a value of $0.25</em>
It is given that:
n = n
d = 3n
q = n + 4
and their total value is $9.40 ⇒ n + d + q = $9.40
Use substitution to find the quantity of nickels:
.05(n) + .10(3n) + .25(n + 4) = 9.40
5n + 10(3n) + 25(n+4) = 940 <em>multiplied by 100 </em>
5n + 30n + 25n + 100 = 940 <em>distributed</em>
60n + 100 = 940 <em>added like terms</em>
60n = 840 <em>subtracted 100</em>
n = 14 <em>divided by 60</em>
n = 14
d = 3n
= 3(14)
= 42
q = n + 4
= (14) + 4
= 18
10% of 140 is 14 so just add 14 to 140
140+14=154.
Answer:
The Answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
SSS is for side-side-side
Both triangles have all three sides given, so the SSS similarity theorem is one way to prove these triangles are similar.
SAS is for side-angle-side
Both triangles have one angle measurement given, and two side lengths given, therefore we can also use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the two triangles are similar.
Since both SSS and SAS work to prove the triangles are similar, the correct answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS
