nickels ($0.05): D + 14

dimes ($0.10): D

quarters ($0.25): Q

Quantity:  (D + 14) + D + Q = 102  ⇒   2D + 14 + Q = 102   ⇒  2D + Q = 88    

Value: 0.05(D + 14) + 0.10(D) + 0.25(Q) = 13.60  ⇒  0.05D + 0.70 + 0.10D + 0.25Q = 13.60   ⇒  0.15D + 0.70 + 0.25Q = 13.60  ⇒  0.15D + 0.25Q = 12.90  ⇒ 15D + 25Q = 1290

2D  +     Q =    88  ⇒         -15(2D + Q = 88)   ⇒ -30D - 15Q = -1320

15D + 25Q = 1290 ⇒   2(15D + 25Q = 1290)  ⇒ <u>30D + 50Q</u> = <u>2580 </u>

                                                                                        35Q = 1260

                                                                                         \frac{35Q}{35} = \frac{1260}{35}

                                                                                             Q = 36

Answer: 36 quarters

Un padre cede al mayor de sus hijos la quinta parte de su capital, al segundo la cuarta parte del mismo y al tercero le da el re
spayn [35]

Answer:

El padre tenía un capital de 60,000 euros.

El hijo mayor recibe 12,000 euros.

El hijo segundo recibe 15,000 euros.

El hijo tercero recibe 33,000 euros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea x el capital total del padre y a,b,c son las asignaciones a los hijos mayor, segundo y tercero. A continuación, construimos las ecuaciones matemáticas a partir de lo descrito en el enunciado:

Hijo mayor

a = \frac{1}{5}\cdot x (1)

Hijo segundo

b = \frac{1}{4}\cdot x (2)

Hijo tercero

c = \left(1-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{4}\right)\cdot x = 33000 (3)

De (3) tenemos que el capital del padre es:

x = \frac{33000}{1-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{4}  }

x = 60000

El padre tenía un capital de 60,000 euros.

Por (1) y (2) determinamos los capitales del hijo mayor y el hijo segundo:

a = \frac{1}{5}\cdot x

x = 12000

El hijo mayor recibe 12,000 euros.

b = \frac{1}{4}\cdot x

b = 15000

El hijo segundo recibe 15,000 euros.
