Plug in the numbers so it will turn out as 21. Divided by 3(2) . You know that if 2 numbers are close by each other than you are going to multiply so 3 times 2 = 6 , then you do 21 divided by 6 = 3.5
The answer = 3.5
3/8 or three-eights of five team
Multiply both sides of the second equation by 100 to get rid of the decimals:
0.05<em>n</em> + 0.10<em>d</em> = 1.50
==> 5<em>n</em> + 10<em>d</em> = 150
Multiply both sides of the first equation by -5:
<em>n</em> + <em>d</em> = 21
==> -5<em>n</em> - 5<em>d</em> = -105
Add the two equations together:
(5<em>n</em> + 10<em>d</em>) + (-5<em>n</em> - 5<em>d</em>) = 150 + (-105)
Notice that the terms containing <em>n</em> get eliminated and we can solve for <em>d</em> :
(5<em>n</em> - 5<em>n</em>) + (10<em>d</em> - 5<em>d</em>) = 150 - 105
5<em>d</em> = 45
<em>d</em> = 45/5 = 9
Plug this into either original equation to solve for <em>n</em>. Doing this with the first equation is easiest:
<em>n</em> + 9 = 21
<em>n</em> = 21 - 9 = 12
So Donna used 12 nickels and 9 dimes.
Answer:
6 meters by 9 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step 1: Formula for perimeter of rectangle</em></u>
Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length) + 2 (width)
Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length + width)
<u><em>Step 2: Find the length and width in terms of x</em></u>
Width = x
Length = 1.5 times width
Length = 1.5x
<u><em>Step 3: Find x</em></u>
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
30 = 2 (1.5x + x)
30/2 = 2.5x
15/2.5 = x
x = 6
<u><em>Step 4: Find the length and width</em></u>
Width = x = 6 meters
Length = 1.5x = 1.5(6) = 9 meters
Therefore, the dimensions of the room are 6 meters and 9 meters.
