D=2n
.05n+.1d=3.5
I multiplied the nickels and dimes by these values because that is their actual monetary value
.05n=3.5-.1d
multiply everything by 20
n=70-2d
d/2=70-2d
.5d+2d=70
2.5d=70
d=28
n=14
so there are <u>28 dimes and 14 nickels
</u>checking this answer
28 dimes = $2.8
14 nickels = .70
2.8+.7=3.5
0.5(y + 3.3)
The product of 0.5 and the sum of y and 3.3.
0.5 times the sum of y and 3.3
As always, the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
(x -5) +(3x +30) +35 = 180
4x +60 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
4x = 120 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60
x = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
a) The value of x is 30.
