Invert the divisor and then multiply 7/9 by your result:
7 -7 -49
--- * ------ = ---------
9 11 99
3/5x+22=28 (Simplify, get all the whole numbers on one side)
-22 -22
5(3/5x)=(6)5 (Get rid of the fraction by multiplying everything by 5)
3x=30 (Get the variable by itself, divide by 3)
x=10
When you see % next to a number, you multiply it by .01.
10 becomes .1
10.5 becomes .105
220*.1=22, so this is the 10% off
220*.105=23.1, so this is the 10.5% service charge.
220-22+23.1=$221.10 for the ticket.
The equation which can be used to find the number of quarters and nickels is; n + q = 84, 0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80.
<h3>Quarters and nickels</h3>
- Total coins = 84
- Total value = $17.80
let
- Number of quarters = q
- Number of nickels = n
n + q = 84
0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80
From equation (1)
n = 84 - q
Substitute into (2)
0.05n + 0.25q = 17.80
0.05(84 - q) + 0.25q = 17.80
4.2 - 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80
- 0.05q + 0.25q = 17.80 - 4.2
0.20q = 13.60
q = 13.60 / 0.20
q = 68
Substitute q = 68 into
n + q = 84
n + 68 = 84
n = 84 - 68
n = 16
Therefore, the number of quarters and nickels are 68 and 16 respectively.
