Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's set this up a system of equations where x represents the number of 10 dollar bills and y represents the number of 20 dollar bills.

10x+20y=440

x=y+2

We see that x has a value of y+2, so we can replace the x in the first equation with y+2 so we can solve for y.

10(y+2)+20y=440

We use distributive property to undo the parentheses.

10y+20+20y=440

We combine like terms.

30y+20=440

We subtract 20 from both sides.

30y=420

y=14

Since there are 2 more $10 bills, there would be 16 of those.

Therefore, there are 16 $10 bills and 14 $20 bills.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Angles 4, 5, and 6 are in the ratio 2:5:3. Find the measure of each angle
garri49 [273]

Answer:

The angles 4, 5 and 6 are 36, 90 and 54 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the total number of parts:

2 + 5 + 3 = 10

The amount of degrees per part is 180 / 10 = 18.

Now, we multiply that factor to the ratio:

2*18 : 5*18 : 3*18//36:90:54

Thus, the angles 4, 5 and 6 are 36, 90 and 54 respectively.

Which statement best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have
laila [671]
<span>Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 7 two times, and the probability is 1/7 ^2

This is the </span><span>statement that best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have their birthdays on a Monday.

There are 7 days in a week, so there are 7 choices but only 1 Monday. So, 1/7 is the probability that a person's birthday falls on a Monday.

1st person asked will have 1/7 probability.
2nd person asked will also have 1/7 probability

So, (1/7)</span>² is the probability that both persons will have their birthdays on a Monday.

How can bees dying affect all four spheres of the Earth? (lithosphere, biosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere)
labwork [276]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, the atmosphere mixes down into the other spheres and releases precipitates; the hydrosphere overlaps onto land surfaces and water vapor rises up into the atmosphere; the biosphere reaches up into the atmosphere, down into soils and rock, and throughout the oceans, exchanging gases, water and nutrients
