Your friend shows you a coin collection. In it 45/50 of the coins are quarters. what percent of the coins are quarters?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

90% of them are quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take 50 and multiply it by two, you get 100. But, in order to get the right number, you have to multiply 45 by two as well. 45 x 2 is 90. 90 out of 100 is 90 percent. So 90% is the answer.

Solve the simultaneous equations: <br> 5x + 2y = 17<br> 4x + y = 10
erik [133]

Answer:

(1, 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 17 → (1)

4x + y = 10 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

- 8x - 2y = - 20 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 3x + 0 = - 3

- 3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

5(1) + 2y = 17

5 + 2y = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2y = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 6

solution is (1, 6 )
