Hello!
To find this ordered pair, we solve for x and y and put them together in an ordered pair.
-4+y=8
x-5y=17
Let's solve the first equation for y.
y= 12
Now, let's plug 12 into the second equation for y.
x-5(12)=17
x-60=17
x=77
Therefore, our ordered pair is (77,12)
I hope this helps!
So first I would say, what if all of them were dimes, how far away would it be from $14?
So 92 coins * 10 cents = $9.20
So it's 4.80 dollars away from 14 dollars.
So if we were to switch one to a quarter, it would increase by 0.15 cents.
So we want to see how many increases we need to reach 4.80 dollars more.
4.80/0.15 = 32
So there are 32 quarters and 60 dimes.

Answer:
x=28
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the larger triangle.
x 42
---------- = ----------
x+10 42+15
Simplify
x 42
---------- = ----------
x+10 57
Using cross products
57x = 42 (x+10)
Distribute
57x = 42x+420
Subtract 42x from each side
57x-42x = 42x-42x +420
15x = 420
Divide each side by 15
15x/15 = 420/15
x=28
