Answer:

Carl has 35 dimes and 90 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of quarters be q and the number of dimes be d

Total number of coins is 125;

Hence;

q + d = 125 •••••••••(i)

The total value of quarters present = q * 0.25 = 0.25q

The total value of dimes present = d * 0.1 = 0.1d

Adding both gives the total

0.25q + 0.1d =26 ••••••••(ii)

So we need to solve both equations simultaneously;

From i,

q = 125 - d

Substitute this into ii

0.25(125-d) + 0.1d = 26

31.25 -0.25d + 0.1d = 26

31.25 -26 = 0.25d -0.1d

5.25 = 0.15d

d = 5.25/0.15

d = 35

Recall; q = 125 - d = 125 -35 = 90

Answer:

y =  - 9 + 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Objective: Use the rules of Algebra to isolate y.

4x - 2y = 18

- 2y = 18 - 4x

y =  \frac{18 - 4x}{ - 2}

y =  - 9 + 2x
