A jar contains $14.25 in quarters and dimes. There are 75 coins in the jar. Find the number of quarters in the jar.

1 answer:

8 0

Set up a system of equations.
d + q = 75
.1d + .25q = 14.25

Multiply the first equation by -.1 so that the "d's" will cancel.
-.1d -.1q = -7.5
.1d +.25q = 14.25
Now add the two equations together
.15q = 6.75
divide both sides by .15
q = 45
There are 45 quarters in the jar

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

(2x-3)(-3+2x),(16-x^2)(x²-16),4y^2+25)(25+4y^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

I know that the rest of the products didn't make a perfect square cause they don´t aren´t squared,I also know that they are the odd ones out among the rest of the product so yeah,I am not too sure if I got it right...sorry if I didn´t.
