Answer:

<h2>x = 24</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

20 -  \frac{x}{3}  =  \frac{x}{2}

Multiply through by the LCM that's 6 in order to eliminate the fraction

That's

6 \times 20 - 6 \times  \frac{x}{3}  = 6 \times  \frac{x}{2}  \\ 120 - 2x = 3x

Using the addition property add 2x to both sides of the equation

That's

3x + 2x = 120 + 2x - 2x \\ 5x = 120

<u>Divide both sides by 5</u>

\frac{5x}{5}  =  \frac{120}{5}

We have the final answer as

<h3>x = 24</h3>

Hope this helps you

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

  11 coins for $1.99

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum total less than $2 is $1.99. It takes 11 coins to make that total. It would take 1 fewer if the nickel were not required.

Starting with the minimum required coins, which total $0.91, we need to add $1.08 using a minimum number of coins. To minimize the added coins, we start with the largest we can use without going over the total: 2×50¢ + 1×5¢ + 3×1¢. These 6 coins added to the required 5 coins give the desired total using 11 coins.

  11 coins: $1.99 . . . . (3×50¢ +1×25¢ +1×10¢ +2×5¢ +4×1¢)

$1.99 is the highest possible total less than $2.00, and it takes a minimum of 11 coins to make that total.
