Answer:

63 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where d is the number of dimes and q is the number of quarters:

d + q = 106

0.1d + 0.25q = 17.05

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -0.25 to eliminate q:

-0.25d - 0.25q = -26.5

0.1d + 0.25q = 17.05

Add together and solve for d:

-0.15d = -9.45

d = 63

So, there were 63 dimes in the piggy bank

FrozenT [24]

Answer: $20

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate 20% tip on a bill of $95.79, divide 20 by 100, then multiply by $95.79

=20/100 x 95.79

∠LQP = ∠LQR + ∠PQR

We know that ∠LQP = 77° and ∠LQR = 35° so we can write:

77° = 35° + ∠PQR

Answer:

$56.50 in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 56.50 because 5% of 45.20 is 2.26 and 20% of 45.20 is 9.04. So, 45.20 plus 2.26 and 9.04 is 56.50.
