Mathematics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<h2>u = 6.88</h2>

Solution,

\frac{17}{13}  =  \frac{9}{u}

Sinplify the equation using cross multiplication

17 \times u = 13 \times 9

Calculate the product

17u = 117

Divide both sides of the equation by 17

\frac{17u}{17}  =  \frac{117}{17}

Calculate

u = 6.88

Hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..

Bethany has 3.10$ in nickels and dimes. She has a total of 44 coins . What is the value of the nickels Bethany has
vlada-n [284]
Represent the unknows with n and d.

Then n+d = 44 (# of coins)

and 

$0.05n + $0.10d = $3.10   (value of coins)

Solving the first equation for n, we get n = 44-d.  Subst.  44-d for n in the 2nd equation:

0.05(44-d) + 0.10d = 3.10
Then 2.20 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10, or
          2.20 + 0.05d             = 3.10, or    0.05d = 0.90.  Solving for d, 
       0.90
d = -------- = 18
        0.05

There are 18 dimes and 44-18 nickels.  How many nickels is that?  ;)
