$400 in $5 = 80 bills
it says she has 38 bills so she has 20. 400/20= 20

F=5 dollar bills
t=twent dollar bills

38 total bills
f+t=38

400 in bills
400=5f+20t

we have
f+t=38
5f+20t=400
multipy first equation by -5 and add to second equation

-5f-5t=-190
5f+20t=400 +
0f+15t=210

15t=210

divide both sides by 15
t=14

subsitute
t+f=38
15+f=38
f=23

23 five dolar bills
15 twenty dollar bills

Work about the mid-points of these line segments. GH: G(-3,-4) and H (0,2)

The x-coordinate of the midpoint is the average of the x-coordinates
of the ends.
The average of the ends is 1/2(-3+0) = -1.5 .

The y-coordinate of the midpoint is the average of the y-coordinates
of the ends.
The average of the ends is 1/2(-4+2) = -1

The midpoint of the segment is <em>(-1.5, -1)</em>.
