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:

if youre answer has to be a whole number it would be 3 otherwise it would be  x<4 ( so anything less than 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

so because we are trying to find which company is less, we need to set up in inequality.

so first lets do company A

because 15 is our reoccuring fee, its going to be the coeifficient

so the equation would be

A - 15x + 20

now lets do company B

because it only 20 every month we dont need to have a constant which means the equation for B would be

B - 20x

so lets put it all together

15x + 20 > 20x ( remember our B side has to be less )

now lets solve it

20 > 5x

we know that if x = 4 then the two would be equal, which means our answer would have to be 3 months.

now always check your work.

15 (3) + 20 = 65

20(3) = 60
