We can set up a system of equations.

x + y = 111
0.25x + 0.10y = 18.30

x + y = 111

Subtract 'y' to both sides:

x = -y + 111

Plug in '-y + 111' for 'x' in the 2nd equation:

0.25(-y + 111) + 0.10y = 18.30

Distribute 0.25 into the parenthesis:

-0.25y + 27.75 + 0.10y = 18.30

Combine like terms:

-0.15y + 27.75 = 18.30

Subtract 27.75 to both sides:

-0.15y = -9.45

Divide -0.15 to both sides:

y = 63

Plug this back into any of the two equations to find the 'x' value.

x + y = 111

x + 63 = 111

Subtract 63 to both sides:

x = 48

So there are 48 quarters and 63 dimes.

3f+2g=30 and f+2g=26
tatuchka [14]
3f + 2g = 30 . . .(1)
f + 2g = 26 . . . .(2)

(1) - (2) => 2f = 4 => f = 4/2 = 2

From (2), 2 + 2g = 26 => 2g = 26 - 2 = 24 => g = 24/2 = 12

Therefore, f = 2 and g = 12

Prove 2(2x+4)= 16 2(2x) by using the laws of exponents.<br> boris9
storchak [24]

The prove that the equation can be verified using the laws of exponents.

<h3>What is the proof of the equation given; 2^(2x+4)= 16 × 2^(2x)?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the equation given is; 2^(2x+4)= 16 • 2^(2x).

It follows from the laws of indices ; particularly, the product of same base numbers.

The evaluation is therefore as follows;

2^(2x+4)= 16 • 2^(2x)

2^(2x) • 2⁴ = 16 • 2^(2x)

2^(2x) • 16 = 16 • 2^(2x)

Hence, since LHS = RHS, it follows that the expression is mathematically correct.
