Nickels (0.05): Q + 6

Dimes (0.10): Q + 8

Quarters (0.25): Q

Nickels + Dimes + Quarters = Total

0.05(Q + 6) + 0.10(Q + 8) + 0.25(Q) = 4.70

0.05Q + 0.30 + 0.10Q + 0.80 + 0.25Q = 4.70

0.40Q + 1.10 = 4.70

0.40Q = 3.60

Q = 9

Nickels (0.05): Q + 6 = (9) + 6 = 15

Dimes (0.10): Q + 8 = (9) + 8 = 17

Answer: Nickels = 15, Dimes = 17, Quarters = 9

3<br> Find the value of x.<br> 34°<br> o<br> 27°

lana [24]

Hi there! :)

$\large\boxed{x = 122^{o}}$

Recall that the sum of all angles in a triangle = 180°.

Therefore:

34° + 24° + x° = 180°

Combine like terms and subtract:

58° + x° = 180°

x = 180° - 58°

x = 122°

Answer:

The answer for :

$h. \: \: \: \frac{5}{6}$

$i. \: \: \: \frac{35}{32}$

$k. \: \: \: \frac{-29}{20}$

$l. \: \: \: \frac{13}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Question h:

$\frac{2}{3} + ( \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{2} )$

$= \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{6}$

$= \frac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2} + \frac{1}{6}$

$= \frac{4}{6} + \frac{1}{6}$

$= \frac{5}{6}$

Question i:

$\frac{7}{8} + \frac{1}{4} \times ( \frac{3}{2} - \frac{5}{8} )$

$= \frac{7}{8} + \frac{1}{4} \times ( \frac{3 \times 4}{2 \times 4} - \frac{5}{8} )$

$= \frac{7}{8} + \frac{1}{4} \times ( \frac{12}{8} - \frac{5}{8} )$

$= \frac{7}{8} + (\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{7}{8} )$

$= \frac{7}{8} + \frac{7}{32}$

$= \frac{7 \times 4}{8 \times 4} + \frac{7}{32}$

$= \frac{28}{32} + \frac{7}{32}$

$= \frac{35}{32}$

Question k:

$\frac{3}{4} - ( \frac{12}{7} \div \frac{12}{21} ) + \frac{4}{5}$

$= \frac{3}{4} - ( \frac{12}{7} \times \frac{21}{12} ) + \frac{4}{5}$

$= \frac{3}{4} - \frac{3}{1} + \frac{4}{5}$

$= \frac{3 \times 5}{4 \times 5} - \frac{3 \times 20}{1 \times 20} + \frac{4 \times 4}{5 \times 4}$

$= \frac{15}{20} - \frac{60}{20} + \frac{16}{20}$

$= - \frac{29}{20}$

Question l:

$\frac{5}{2} \times ( \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{5} ) - ( \frac{2}{5} \div \frac{4}{3} )$

$= \frac{5}{2} \times ( \frac{2 \times 5}{3 \times 5} - \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3} ) - ( \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{3}{4} )$

$= \frac{5}{2} \times ( \frac{10}{15} - \frac{3}{15} ) - \frac{3}{10}$

$= (\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{7}{15}) - \frac{3}{10}$

$= \frac{7}{6} - \frac{3}{10}$

$= \frac{7 \times 5}{6 \times 5} - \frac{3 \times 3}{10 \times 3}$

$= \frac{35}{30} - \frac{9}{30}$

$= \frac{26}{30}$

$= \frac{13}{15}$
