Question

Karen has $1.70 in coins. Karen has 8 coins, all of which are quarters or dimes.

Answer 1

x+y=8 and 25x+10y=170 are the linear equations.

x+y≤8 and 25x+10y≤170 are the inequalities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of coins = $1.70 = 1.70*100 = 170 cents

Number of coins = 8

1 quarter = 25 cents

1 dime = 10 cents

Let,

x represent the number of quarters

y represent the number of dimes

1. Write an equation to represent the amount of coins Karen has.

x+y = 8

2.Write an equation to represent the value of the coins Karen has.

25x+10y=170

x+y=8 and 25x+10y=170 are the linear equations.

For inequalities, the amount cannot increase number of coins and worth but it can be less, therefore,

x+y≤8

25x+10y≤170

x+y≤8 and 25x+10y≤170 are the inequalities.
