(<em>q = quarters, n = nickles</em>)

<u>First, create your system of equations:</u>

   25q + 5n = 535 cents

   n = 2q - 5

<u>Second, Substitute for n:</u>

   25q + 5(2q - 5) = 535

<u>Simplify:</u>

   25q + 10q - 25 = 535

<u>Simplify to solve for q:</u>

   35q=560

   q=16

<u>Next, solve for n by plugging the value of q back into the equation:</u>

   n=2q - 5

   n=32-5

   n=27

There would be 16 quarters and 27 nickles.

A right prism has a volume of 65 cubic inches. The prism is enlarged so its height is increased by a factor of 20, but the other
Helga [31]

Answer:

Volume of a right prism = 65 cubic inches

Its height is increased by a factor of 20.

To find:

The new volume of the prism if the other dimensions do not change.

Solution:

The volume of a prism is:

Volume=Bh

Where, B is the base area and h is the height.

A right prism has a volume of 65 cubic inches.

65=Bh

The height of prism is increased by a factor of 20. So, the new volume is:

Volume=B(20h)

Volume=20(Bh)

Volume=20(65)

Volume=1300

The volume of the new prism is 1300 in³.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
