The answer is 
n = 37 - d
0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10
He has 25 dimes.

n - the number of nickles
d - the number of dimes

n = $0.05
d = $0.10

<span>Carter has 37 coins: n + d = 37
</span><span>The value of the coins is $3.10: 0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10


</span>n + d = 37
0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10
_____
n = 37 - d
0.05n + 0.10d = 3.10
_____
0.05(37 - d) + 0.10d = 3.10
1.85 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10
1.85 + 0.05d = 3.10
0.05d = 3.10 - 1.85
0.05d = 1.25
d = 1.25 : 0.05
d = 25

Estimate the product 8.91 × 34,871.081
aleksklad [387]
The way I would do it is by rounding 8.91 up to 9 and I would round 34,871.081 up to 35,000.
9*35,000=315,000

Hopefully I was able to help in some way.

111=13, 113=35, 115=57, 117=?
Elden [556K]
In the pattern, the values are increasing by 22 each time so for the 117th term you take 57 + 22 = 79

So, 117= 79
