Answer: She has 40 nickels and 40 quarters .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "n" the number of nickels Theresa has and "q" the number of quarters Theresa has.

You know that she has a total of $12 in nickels and quarters. In cents, this is:

\$12*100=1,200\ cents

Then, based on this you can write the following expression:

5n+25q=1,200

Since n=q, you can rewrite it as:

5n+25n=1,200

Solving for "n", you get:

30n=1,200\\\\n=\frac{1,200}{30}\\\\n=40

Therefore she has 40 nickels and 40 quarters .

This question involves direct proportion which has the formula (y=kx) where y and x are the values which are proportional and k is the constant of proportionality.

The constant of proportionality is basically the value that stays the same even if the x and y values change.

In this case, the constant of proportionality would be 3/7.

The future value of the amount deposited will be given by:
FV=p(1+r/100n)^nt

where:
FV=future value
p=principle
r=rate
n=terms
t=time
thus substituting our values in the formula we get:
FV=4000(1+5.4/1200)^(6×12)
FV=$5,526.57

<h3>Answer: B) $878.28</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

She starts off $16.75 in debt

Later on she deposits $16.75 to get completely out of debt and make the balance 0. This is after depositing the $5.72

So far her balance is $5.72

Add on $872.56 to get 5.72+872.56 = 878.28

-------------

This is what your steps may look like

-16.75 + (5.72 + 16.75)

-16.75 + (16.75 + 5.72)

(-16.75+16.75) + 5.72

(0) + 5.72

5.72

5.72+872.56

878.28
